Looking for advice on where to post (for free) Ruby job ads, besides
Craigslist of course.

Thanks for any help-

Is it OK to post Ruby job ads on this forum?

As long as they are real jobs and for ruby/ using tools in ruby, I am
personally ok seeing job ads.

I would put [job] in the subject.

I can't imagine too many people disagreeing with this stance.

This is a forum for discussing Ruby language/programming topics. Not for
job advertisements.

There really should be a separate sub-forum called ruby-jobs.

There's a LinkedIn group for Rails with lots of ads. IDK about Ruby w/o
Rails, though.

job advertisements.

Also: this list is global (as in "world wide") whereas job offers
usually are locally restricted.

The funny thing is that exactly the same discussion happened 2 days ago
on the Scala mailinglist.

Does it make sense that each open source language starts its own board?
Seems to be the preferred way ..

Marc Weber

Honestly, I don't think there is a job board for Ruby without Rails. Even
http://toprubyjobs.com/ seems to be all Rails (and it isn't free).

You should just post :slight_smile: If it annoys tptb enough, maybe they'll make a
separate board for it and that will be better for everyone.

I have found that many local/national Ruby User Groups are fine, and even
encourage relevant Ruby related jobs.

On the worldwide list, the last thing I want to see is 200 job postings a
week that I cannot apply to.

On the other hand, someone like me more than happy to move. The last thing I
want to do is have to compile and then check a list 200 local ruby boards a
week.

It doesn't seem that there is currently a resource for this, but given that
I've seen less than a handful of Ruby w/o Rails jobs, ever, I don't think
there is much to be concerned about.

I'd say consider elance.com for job posting. It's way better than this mailing list.
