We had a short discussion about "How to offer jobs / How to search for people who know CentOS" within the existing CentOS infrastructure. We dismissed the idea of putting a "Jobs forum" at http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/, neither did we want a section on the web site which would have to be cared about by some sort of editorial staff.
(Note: We can still discuss about that)
What we thought about is a CentOS-jobs mailing list to which you can send a mail when you want to offer a job in which CentOS plays a role.
Some (rather unsorted) thoughts which came up:
- Do we also want people to be able to search for jobs (my opinion: No)
- should that list be moderated (my opinion: Yes - by maybe more than one person)
- Which standards do we need for a job to be posted there? That helps weeding out some "get criminal quick" schemes or other snowball schemes.
- Do we want an unmoderated discussion list besides that for discussing about job offers - like on Usenet (my opinion: No, that really is a way for quick and lasting flame fests)
And the biggest questions: Do we need that all? Do you have another vision of how we can do those job offerings within our infrastructure? Do you have experiences with stuff like that? Do *you* want to moderate that list (or at least help with that)?
Discuss. I'd be particularly interested in the standards for job offerings.
A job posting list would be abused 6 ways to Sunday by head hunters and recruitment firms.
