Sorry to hi-jack this thread, but John just brought up something
\nthat’s been bugging me a lot on this list, and I didn’t want Paul (who
\nstarted the conversation with a rather innocent job posting) to think
\nI am picking on him…I’ve noticed this mostly goes for agencies with
\nfull-time positions, and doesn’t seem quite as bad when people post
\nfreelance gigs, but…<\/p>\n
PLEASE, can whoever is writing the job posting take a second and write
\nsomething about the company that is doing the hiring? It is really
\ndodgy not to at least post the name and URL for the company, rather
\nthan making us look at the email address (if one was included) for the
\ndomain name and figure it out from there. It makes me think SO much
\nless of a company that asks Midori or anyone else to take up our inbox
\nspace with a job posting, but can’t even bother to properly identify
\nthemselves.<\/p>\n
Thank you!
