Spike in CalDAV job searches

Kellan — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 21:28:24 +0000

I’m seeing an interesting spike in folks looking for resumes with CalDAV on them, 37 queries for “caldav inurl:resume” in the last week. (and I should probably take it off mine as the state of the art has progressed while I’ve been away)

To come play with us in our SF office. And we need someone to come do vocals for Rock Band as well. But seriously, ignore the crap business language from the listing, its amazing, hard, rewarding place to work, with a ridiculous dedicated focus on results.

Reduce the risk, hire from open source

If they aren’t contributing to open source, and aren’t blogging, how do you know they’re passionate, competent, and compatible? Just don’t do it.

I’m not seeing anything new and original here, except the explicit focus on jobs.

Selling Resume Placement

Kellan — Sun, 17 Aug 2003 23:50:09 +0000

I just noticed that my resume is getting between 200-300 views a week, mostly from people searching for “resume software engineer”, but also searching for “resume web developer” (page 3), and various combinations involving more specific technologies like JSP, PHP, MySQL, and XML. (and one disappointed soul who searched for “resume san francisco postgres”, sorry can’t help you)

I was just thinking, thats pretty serious traffic, I wonder if I could sell access to display someone else’s resume at http://laughingmeme.org/resume.html, while perhaps continueing to display the original to Google? I wonder what the rate would be for something like that.

Now there are jobs in SF!?!?!

I should stop posting, and go do something, but it was a weird long day, and I’m kind of trapped inside. But can I tell you how frustrating this is? Jasmine and I were in San Francisco for a year, and there was nothing remotely resembling work available, now since I moved back east (what 2 months ago?) there have been 3 dream opportunities, and numerous other possiblities, including taking over for a friend at a prominent community site who gave his notice this week. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

In the mean time there is nothing out here.
