Speaking of Interviewing
I've had a req open for weeks now and can't find hardly anyone qualified for basic java web development. I guess I'm not alone. Is the job market in St. Louis that hot right now or did all the talent leave and go elsewhere. What gives? |

Pebble including Wiki Features! Rock On Simon!!
I agree with Eric's assement of the Blog/Wiki/Forum landscape. While I see the three quite similar I think the Blog/Wiki marriage is a closer fit. Forum's are more of one stop shop for a particular topic. Blog's are kind of a spider web of informat... |
