I rely on recruiters to funnel applicants to the company. I also use Monster and jobs.perl.org to do the same. But I don't rely on them top do much weeding. These days, I used semi-automated remote testing to find the good guys. I put very little faith in resumes, and do not use them to evaluate candidates. This has worked out extremely well. I imagine that this process is not suitable for many positions, or for cultures that are different from Telerama's. Check out the job posting at https://doug.telerama.com/admin_job.txt In particular: DO NOT SEND YOUR RESUME at this point of the application process. If you do send your resume, we will assume you did not bother to carefully read this job posting, and we will not consider your application. To begin taking the tests, please send your public SSH key to jobs () telerama com along with your email contact information. Sending your SSH key is the only way to signal your interest in this position. Please do not send a resume, cover letter, or other plea. The last time I posted this, I received 200 total replies. 151 contained resumes, 52 contained public SSH keys, 4 contained public PGP keys, and 1 contained a private SSH key. One further response expressed hostility toward the requirement of a candidate's public SSH key in order to be considered for a position. Doug
