Hey Tim.

Know what else we all dislike?

Getting job reqs for .NET and C# ... on a Ruby mailing list.

Cmon, man.

Can I propose something here?

Numerous newcomers to the community and entrepreneurs have told me they're
afraid to post relevant job postings to this list due to recruiters and
others getting chastised for not adhering to job posting guidelines. Can we
establish the convention of *kindly* pointing first time posters to
guidelines and removing those that don't adhere from the list in exchange
for a second offense?

The other option is to create a separate list specifically for Boston Ruby
Jobs.

People are just trying to do their jobs. Just like it's their job to get the
listings out to through as many channels as possible, it's our job to
educate them about the guidelines.

Have an awesome weekend,
Dan

While I agree we should encourage people to post job postings in the proper
way ([JOB] in the subject line) this post was completely off topic. There
isn't a single mention of anything that resembles a Ruby related job at all.
That should not be encouraged.

Dan, I would love to agree with you, but...

When you're plainly already familiar with the fact that this is spamming ("I
know how much we all hate getting spammed by 'head hunters' so I’ll keep
this brief…")

When you are sending to an email with ruby in the name and your post does
not even mention the word Ruby as a "good to have."

You've lost my sympathy.

Is there an automated welcome message to the group? If so, could we add
a prominent pointer to the job posting guidelines?

Unfortunately there isn't an automated welcome message other than if I
personally engage any new comers. Which is do-able. It would be nice if
Google Groups allowed us to have a "sticky" top post with guidelines,
notices, etc...

What would people feel about a boston-rubygroup-jobs mailing list?

Not sure what problem a separate list is solving.

Spammers are still going to spam and well-behaved job posts are of interest
to the group (and easily filtered)

So here are the pros/cons of a jobs mailing list that I see:

Pros:
* isolates the job listings in one place, will hopefully reduce noise in
here
* job posters can feel free to post anything they want on that list

Cons:
* less people will be watching it
* we still have to educated job posters to use the other mailing list

my 2 cents (1 penny) is that I'm fairly agnostic to either approach but am
thinking that another option might be a page listing process similar to what
we had before - all the info & history in one single place.
With the mailing list approach, can the join process show recently posted
emails? That's seems important.
I also found it tedious to scan though and compare recent postings when they
are in a large number of separate emails rather than the 'one page' approach
used previously.
As users ('seekers') will often want to see a list of what's been posted in
the last, say, 3 months at the time that they deem they are 'available' (or
move to the area say) not sure if the mailing list really addresses those
use cases. Plus some users will just want to scan the list every now and
then without actually being on an active 'available' mailing list.  Also
seeing this history will also be of value to new 'posters' as they can see
what sort of jobs are already out there that they will be competing against
for job seekers.
I guess whether you can get to see past history for a mailing list is a key
factor here.
So I wondered if a mailing list is actually the right tool for the job. big
picure 'n 'all.
Curious to know what peoples thoughts are on the right tool here. Maybe this
is just my preference.

I also frequently refer folks to

We're not going with the other mailing list idea, it wasn't a good one. I
sent another message to the mailing list asking that people simply direct
offending posters to the guidelines on the wiki.

I've also just added Dan's post to the wiki page.

This doesn't solve the problem but maybe it makes things smoother in the
future.

I think nothing should change. I really like the way we collectively
handle things right now. Remember that ridiculous Florida job post
last year? I still laugh at the email chain from that one. I think we
as a group are pretty good about occasionally shellacking, in good
taste, unless I missed something that is driving fear into the hearts
of job posters?

Dear Job Poster,

I really like your legitimate/relevant job posts. Keep them coming,
it's good to see what's out there, what people are doing, and what
skills you are looking for, and I may need you someday - seriously -
so no matter what is said after your post, it's all in good fun, and
whoever said those awful mean things, well forget them. 99.9% of us <3
you!

have a great Memorial Day weekend,
Chris

What about job postings for non-ruby work where a member is looking for help from other members on a networking level?

For instance, my company currently needs helps with iOS work and are looking for a few consultants and I'd love to get recommendations from members/friends here at Boston.rb but have never posted since it's a non-ruby job.

Good point. It seems to me that (a) that would be a legitimate use of
the list, and (b) the best way to do that would be to tag the subject
line with something like "[NONRUBY-JOB]". What do you guys think?

I don't see why anything like this would be out of bounds.  Sure, it's
slightly off-topic but the overlap with this community is (probably) rather
large.  Nothing wrong with a short and sweet and polite email along the
lines of:

"Hi everyone,  Sorry to be a little off-topic but my company is looking for
some iOS consultants.  If anyone is interested or wants to get in touch drop
me a line at ...." etc etc.  I see absolutely nothing wrong with that and I
don't think anyone else would either.

It's not like that's a drive-by copy-and-paste-a-resume job then disappear
into the ether type thing.

Good idea, Phil, but I would suggest [JOB] [OT] or [JOB][-RUBY] or
something. You want to keep the "[JOB]" string as an exact match to not
break existing filters.

I could see a [-RUBY] or [OT] flag having general utility beyond job posts.

The downside (same downside as having another list) is that anyone who is
rude enough to ignore the guidelines in general will also "accidentally"
forget the OT flag as well. Basically, if you outlaw spamming, only outlaws
will eat spam.....or something....

Good point about the filters. And as for those who won't bother to use
the appropriate tags, well, we still have the option of one or more
polite warnings followed by a ban.

I definitely think the most offensive thing to me is that these posts are
drive-by. I can believe that there is significant community overlap, and I
am for taking advantage of that, but a copy-pasted-off-topic-post without
even a [JOB] in the subject line is very frustrating. Especially since it is
extremely unlikely that Tim Golden has seen any of our reaction to his post,
and will probably never be back, anyway.

The horse is beaten soundly, but in spite of that, what I would say is it
would be a shame if legitimate members of this list and community feel like
they can't post an iOS or whatever job at all, or without first figuring out
the filtering scheme for fear of offending someone's mailbox, or receiving
(even a mild) shellacking (which I do not know how to spell, thank you
gmail).

I suggest KISS - stay with [JOB]: it works for those who will pay attention
enough to use it or filter it.
Others, well, that stuff is going to happen, but we'll all live, and market
forces will eventually deal with it.

Personally, I'm fine with anyone who wants to come on this list and post a
even a remotely legit Ruby-ish job in the Boston-ish area (and I would
easily count other tech adjacent to Ruby in that, like all things mobile,
node.js, html5/css3/js/jQuery, etc.).
Do any of you folks on this list seriously only ever do Ruby, or only want
to? Hells no.

And woe be onto you who do not remember the days of the dot com bust, when
you might pray for such posts as we are trying to filter, conform, and make
fun of... Stay humble; chances are we'll see such a thing again.
