For a while now, we've been trying to think of good ways to allow the readers of OSNews to find OS or tech-related jobs, or find new employees for their companies. We've partnered with CareerBuilder, for a start, so if you're looking for a job, (or want to fill one)
check it out.. But what else could we do? Would you like to see a place where people can post OS-related tech jobs? Let us know in the comments of this story. On this subject,
Openwave, maker of the popular mobile phone web browser,
is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to work on the core of their next generation mobile browser: "
Must have demonstrable, extensive, real-world experience, a deep understanding of C and a working knowledge of C++." Openwave's web browser engineering team has a long history demonstrating and testing with OSNews' mobile site (

I too would have a problem with allowing employers the privilege of tracing candidates back to their screen names on OSNews. I agree that companies may allow someone's posts to influence the decision as to whether or not to hire them. But more importantly, I am tempted to believe that if employers have the ability to read through a candidate's posts, that it will prevent people on this board that may be looking for jobs from speaking their minds for fear of retribution (in the form of not being hired based on what was said, rather than their skills and qualifications).
I hope that made sense. It's early in the morning and I haven't had my cup of java yet.
