So this looks like a bait for fresh graduates, because more seasoned professionals know that good jobs are hard to come by. I'm a software engineer, I live 50 miles north off London and I'm looking for a job there. My spam folder receives a daily dose of "LAMP developers needed", ".NET engineers", "Fontend jQuery wizzard" and other similar offers that I'm less than excited about, but jobs with leading technologies that I work with and want to continue working with (Scala, AngularJS, etc) are nowhere to be found. What does Enterpreneur First think they can fix here?
- lifeisstillgood 13y agoYou are not alone, but there are two or three fixes I can think of - Start up your own startup - work for a startup (silicon roundabout does an email list) I get the impression (and thats about all) that there are a lot of startups who would like experienced London developers to build them their MVP - price is probably the issue. - Why just stick to London - everyone says Remote is possible :-) Sorry not really answering the question - I just don't think the traditional apply for a job via a recruiter thing works anymore. I just am not sure what is replacing it.
- neil_s 13y agoCould you link me to the mailing list for the Roundabout? I've joined a Meetup or two, but haven't found this list.
- lifeisstillgood 13y agoLondon-Silicon-Roundabout-announce@meetup.com seems the right one
- pea 13y agoI did EF in 2012 and we are hiring Angular and Scala (Play/Slick/Akka) developers actually ;). Ping me leo@kivo.com
- paolomaffei 13y agowork with angularJS is actually quite easy to find in London, write me an email if you want some contacts
