I'd just like to post a friendly reminder before this thread fills up with a lot of posts. Please post your location, or if the job(s) in question can be done remotely, specify so - it makes things much easier.

Where is the app around this post? I've always thought it would be interesting to have some social network way to know about jobs via friends and previous co-workers. LinkedIn has never really done much for me and it seems you have to be more proactive there.

Every month the thread comes up, and every month I mention a website I work with my friend, http://job4dev.com

We put together a job board and a company database, so that people can see about the listings and have information about the company. Each listing page and company page works as a wiki, and can be edited to improve information about. Also, each page has a comment area in order to improve communication between job seekers, recruiters, and people who already work at the given company.

I'm pretty close to finish the section where people can build their resumes and list past experiences, education, and such. http://job4dev.com/my/resume

What else do we do? We have a twitter profile @job4dev (http://twitter.com/job4dev), custom RSS feeds, mailing lists. The fundamental features of this "app" you want are there.

All of this is free. The website is far from perfect, but our biggest problem right now is breaking the chicken-and-egg nature of a job site.

This is a side-project for now, the moment we get traction I can see myself jumping more into it to fix these smaller issues and bringing more features at a faster pace. For now I think all I'll be able to do is to use this monthly thread to do a shameless plug and tell of what's new. (Last month, for instance, we had no resume builder).

Let me know what you think. Feedback is always appreciated.

Anyone know of anything in Canada?

We're not hiring anyone specifically now, but you owe it to yourself to check out Waterloo region. It's starting to get an awesome and vibrant startup scene, and alongside mammoth companies like RIM there are a ridiculous amount of job opportunities.

LinkedIn is hiring: http://www.linkedin.com/static?key=jobs_open . I was actually hired as a result of the last Who's hiring? thread and have really enjoyed it so far. Please feel free to email me if you have any questions about working here.

I'll just add that we (LinkedIn) are a JVM shop. Amongst our weaponry are: java, scala, other intriguing languages, hadoop, voldemort, OS X dev boxes (with scads of memory), lots of perks and fun projects.

We also have many open source projects to work on: http://sna-projects.com

We are located in Mountain View, nestled in amongst the sprawling Google surroundings.
