International job market and jobs.perl.org

Roland Moritz asked about why there are no perl job offers in Germany
in another e-mail.

I don't know about Germany, I see that in Israel there is a growing number
of jobs in perl - not enough but there are a few.
Non of them makes it to the jobs.perl.org. Some of them make onto the
mailing list of the Israeli Perl Mongers or onto our web site.

I am not sure why and if this is fixable but here is my experience:

1) Once I posted a job there and even though I wrote the job is on
site and if IIRC also that I cannot support relocation about 99% of
the responses came form overseas. When I responded with a no thank you
I even got some angry letters.

A friend of mine who was looking for a perl programmer for Check Point
had similar experience.

2) The whole site seems to be geared toward English speakers,
I mean both the site and the posts are in English and while other
programmers might be also comfortable reading English it is a barrier
to post.


To be clear I am not blaming here anyone and I have no good idea how to
fix this or otherwise improve the site.

Someone might want to translate the site into different languages and
enable posts in those languages as well. The former is relatively easy,
for the latter you'll probably have to have different moderators who can
understand those languages.

That might help to get more International jobs be posted on jobs.perl.org

Perl programmer is also needed in Dniepropetrovsk, Ukraine
Add Ukraine to the list of countries with growing perl community too

As for language, I don't think that the problem is language,..
I think, that for many people is simplier to find programmers by another
way.. but jobs.perl.org, I think, - is the best

With best wishes,
