Hi - I'm writing from Core77 as the manager of the Coroflot job board and the person responsible for managing the partnerships we have.
The comments here are great, and very insightful. - It sounds like there is not a lot of support for the idea of funding IxDA by paying for job postings. But people seem open to the idea of funding IxDA through direct appeal for donations. - The Coroflot job board has categories for 'Interaction Design' and 'Web Design.' Both of these categories have jobs that are relevant to this list, although the majority might not be sufficiently targeted in their expertise, which is what the membership seems to be looking for. This could be a potential source of conflict. Here are links: Interaction Design Jobs Web Design Jobs - A key to the success of this partnership would be for the job board to generate new postings. If the members are not going to make these postings, then who will? Are their outside recruiters that currently use this forum to post jobs, or is it only used as an internal distribution source for active members? - The portfolio offering would help members in getting exposure for their work. Indeed, many of our members use it in this way, to point to their own sites/blogs. But keep in mind that there are a lot of recruiters and hiring managers that look for talent on Coroflot. Any other feedback from the community is welcome! - . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
