[PLUG] FOSS/RHEL and CISCO engineers (and more) needed in KoP ($115K-$125K + 7-10% bonus)...

[Fred Stluka <fred@bristle.com>]

PLUG folks,

I don't remember what we've said in the past about posting job
descriptions.  Feel free to tell me of this was not appreciated, but
it's a large company that's moving from Windows to Linux, so it
seemed relevant...

I was referred by a friend recently to someone she called an
"outstanding recruiter".  Strong praise from her -- she's not very
tolerant of people who don't meet her standards for intelligence,
competence and easiness to work with.  So, I asked for more info.

The recruiter seems like a genuine, honorable, effective guy.
He's working to fill 100 infrastructure/ops positions at a large
company, many in KoP.  He's been very upfront with me so far,
supplying lots of details of the company, the jobs, and his own
personal approach to recruiting.  Says the right things, emphasizing
honesty, integrity, keeping candidates informed of status.  Also,
will the candidate love the role, fit the group, stay long, etc?

Should I connect you to him?  Details below...
