A quick reminder for everyone posting to the list on how to write good subject lines

A good subject line makes it easier for subscribers to discard messages that aren't relevant to them, which could save the many thousands of people on this list more than 3 and half hours per message (1.5 seconds x 9000 members = 3.75 hours!)
  • Make sure you specify the time (PT / FT / Contract) and location
  • Include the job title and hiring organisation
  • If something requires payment, make it clear in the subject
  • BONUS: Include the full job description in the message
Examples

[FT, San Francisco] Senior Designer - DoGood Corp
[PT, Remote] Senior Designer - DoGood Corp
[Contract, USA - Remote] Various roles - DoGood Corp
[FT, Kenya, Switzerland or Chile] Senior Designer - DoGood Corp
[FT, USA - various locations] Senior Designer - DoGood Corp
[Fellowship, Requires payment] Social Impact Fellowship - DoGood Corp

Thanks,

Your humble moderators
