I’m happy to report that the ”Jobs in Functional Programming” event to be held at Chalmers this Friday looks like being a big success. We have seven companies involved, and five speakers—and almost 70 people registered BEFORE we put up posters around the campus, including some people who are travelling from other countries just for this event.

 

If you’re recruiting functional programmers, and you HAVEN’T got in touch with me yet, then there is still time—although I can’t accept any more speakers now. But if you would like to send recruitment materials, then I will be only too happy to ensure that participants receive a copy. Just don’t ask me to print your materials for you: there won’t be time for that. If you would like to send such materials, then courier them to me at

 

Department of Computer Science and Engineering

Chalmers University of Technology

S-41296 GÖTEBORG

Sweden

 

They need to arrive by Friday morning at the latest. Let me know by email to expect them.

 

It’s delightful to find that there are both job-seekers and employers enough to make this kind of event a success!

Dear John Hughes,

It has come to my notice that this functional programmers group
exists.

I work in SimCorp's HR Department and since we currently have open
functional programming positions I would like to know whether it is
possible to place a job ad in this google-group? Or is there any other
way to render visible SimCorp's search for functional programmers?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Cecilie Rosengreen
Corporate HR

SimCorp A/S

You've partially succeeded already, since I have
http://www.simcorp.com/career/send%20cv.aspx
opened in my browser. :)

"Description CUFP is a community of users of functional programming
languages and technology, people who use functional
languages in their professional lives or in an open
source project (other than in implementing a functional
language). In short: anyone who uses functional
programming as a means, not an end."

Yes, IMHO this group is the proper place for job ads.
Another (more populated) is haskell-cafe mailing list:
* http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Mailing_lists
* http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

Regards,

You could send an email to ocaml...@inria.fr if you'd like to reach
the subset of the OCaml community interested in job offers.

The Haskell website also has a jobs page

http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Jobs

where you may want to add a link to your job ad and you may want to
consider adding a short description of your company to

http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell_in_industry

in case you are using, or are considering to use Haskell.
