[PLUG] OT: SourceXtreme has no current openings in Exton, PA

[Jason Nocks <nocksj@sourcextreme.com>]

Apologies in advance for the off-topic discussion.

So, why am I posting a message to the list?

Because, we've found the best results by building relationships with people 
prior to forming an official contract or hiring someone officially. We *may* 
need to hire employees or contractors in the future. We *may* in particular 
want to hire a part-time administrator. Perhaps a college student that could 
work some days when not in class, etc. Perhaps an intern. We're open to 
discussing whether or not any particular arrangement might make sense.

Specifically, we like to find ways to let people try working with us (for pay) 
for short predefined periods (hours to days) prior to either party making a 
final decision.

Obviously, it's often easier to try working together if you are in or near the 
western suburbs of Philadelphia, where our group regularly works.

Again, I'll repeat, "we currently have 0 (zero) job openings". If you are 
primarily looking for companies that have current openings that you can 
submit a resume to be considered for, SourceXtreme is probably not the 
organization for you. I don't wish to waste your time or the time of the 
group at SourceXtreme.

I understand this message may be unusual. And my apologies in advance if this 
is confusing or upsetting to anyone, or if people think messages like this 
don't belong on this list. If so, please feel free to contact me at the 
information below.

For a *slightly* more traditional view of some of the things we may be looking 
for as well as some hiring practices we use, please go to 
http://wiki.sourcextreme.org/index.php/Job_Openings

The group at SourceXtreme has a strong preference for working with GNU/Linux 
distributions. I'd be happy to provide additional information if that would 
be helpful.
