Posting for network engineers and operators...
Apologies if this is not appropriate for this list... but I'm looking to hire network engineers for our project and would like to hear what job boards are best for network engineering types to view. I'm not a recruiter. We are looking for positions in Pennsylvania. Dice? Monster? Linked-in? thanks, brian -- Brian Stengel KINBER Director of Operations bstengel@kinber.org M: 412.398.2333 GV: 412.254.3481 Skype: brian_stengel KINBER - Keystone Initiative for Network Based Education and Research - www.kinber.org PennREN - Pennsylvania's Research and Education Network

IME, anyway, none of them. If you're targeting a specific locality, eng/ops groups, linkedin, and craigslist are probably a good start. I dont believe that engineers looking for engineers is offtopic for nanog, either (though the rules may have changed over the years), though if you're open to a more global response. there is a nanog-jobs list, but it has had effectively zero traffic.... -- david raistrick http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html drais@icantclick.org http://www.expita.com/nomime.html
I *highly* suggest linkedin as well... myself and other coworkers/friends have gotten our past few jobs from there. The recruiters LOOOVE it and more often than not you're swatting them away more than you're looking for work. --- Nick -----Original Message----- From: david raistrick [mailto:drais@icantclick.org] Sent: Wednesday, November 23, 2011 10:19 AM To: Brian Stengel Cc: nanog@nanog.org Subject: Re: Posting for network engineers and operators...

I've found craigslist to be a really good source, but be prepared for a terrible signal to noise ratio. The amount of ridiculous apps is crazy. Dice and Monster are good as well, depending on your budget. I've actually been pleasantly surprised by LinkedIn's job postings as well. Find a few good network groups and post the ads there...you should have some decent responses. On Wed, Nov 23, 2011 at 10:39 AM, James Jones <james@freedomnet.co.nz>wrote:

The SNR on craigslist goes both ways, for both the applicant and the employer. There are also lots of terrible job ads, and a large tendency for employers to not list their identity. Sure, some are just recruiters hiding their client's identity, but the mandatory identifying fields aren't there like the other job sites. I always want to know who the employer is before I apply. Additionally, in certain cities, there's some really bad employers who post there because they can't afford to post anywhere else, and it shows in the job offers. I think CL can work well if you write a complete and proper job ad like you find on most of the pay boards. Any hey it's free! However, other avenues (such as Linkedin), generally charge some minimal price for admission, and to the applicant this means the company is at least serious in their recruiting and not just testing the waters.
