The place I've been working for the past 2 months is hiring. I've been
really happy here so far - maybe somebody on this list would be
interested? Here's the job posting:

Let me know if you have any questions,

Hi Trevor,

I was wondering if LifeSnapz is still hiring. I'll be moving to
Chicago on August 1st and I'm looking to acquire an entry level Ruby
on Rails developer position somewhere. I've been studying and
following Ruby on Rails for about a year now while testing my
knowledge on some sample applications i've written. I have a .NET
background, but want to focus on RoR from here on out.

Anybody else have any recommendations of companies to contact?

Hope to meet some new people at the August ChicagoRuby meeting.

Cheers,
Adam

Hey Adam-

Coming to the ChicagoRuby.org meetings is a good start. You might also
visit the Chirb meetings (http://chirb.org). There's some overlap
between the Chirb and ChicagoRuby.org, and it's always good to meet
folks from different parts of the Rails world.

Also, consider attending WindyCityRails (http://windycityrails.org).
The conference isn't geared toward recruiting, but with so many
developers in one place we're expecting some networking opportunities.

Looking forward to meeting you!

-Ray

Thanks, Ray!  I'll look into Chirb.  Definitely no harm in meeting people from both groups.   Thanks for the WCR heads up, but i signed up when i found it last night :-)  Can't wait to attend my first Rails conf!

I've been on vacation for a bit now, but I believe they're still
looking. Drop them a line with your resume and any sample code you've
got going.
