Hey all,
Earlier this week I counselled a poster here in clpm to visit
jobs.perl.org in order to find a Perl developer/consultant willing to
take on his specific, if simple, task.
(http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.perl.misc/msg/7aade7d5b89ab749)
I thought I ought to investigate jobs.perl.org myself as I think I
could start addressing simple script requirements such as the one
above. I assumed it would be a simple transaction - perl code in
return for PayPal or something similar. However, after visiting the
site, most of the posts (almost all that I saw) were for permanent or
semi-permanent positions. Is this the right site for one-off script
requests like the one above? If so, any tips on finding those needles
in the haystacks of "real" jobs?
I know many of you have you have your own websites advertising your
Perl consulting skills and this may be another route, but I really
didn't want to get that serious.
Anyway, any tips or ideas would be appreciated.
TIA,
