The job board is seeing an increasing number of postings. Hooray 😁 Considering, some jobs are for gratis, while some involve money, as that confusion such as the Apache Camel logo can occur, I think it's important for us as a community to establish how we want the Job Board to be used and engaged with as it matures.

Some starting points:

  • How to handle cases (like Apache camel) where organization vs. individuals post
  • What is proper and desired methods for OSD designers to apply and engaging with job poster
  • What is the right balance of fairness for applying / accepting gigs repeatedly
  • What aspects of negotiating / accepting gigs should happen on OSD job board vs. privately

Definitelly want to help shape this as well. This needs quite a bit of work and discussion so I'm going to give this some proper thought a bit later.

I want to add that we should try to cater to most posters, as we might lose credibility if a lot of jobs are posted and most of them are not followed up. However, on the other hand, that is sometimes not so surprising, as most jobs are gratis, and no matter how much we want to help, we gotta pay bills. I tend to do 2 pro-bono gigs for every paid gig I do, but I think that a minimum financial incentive helps quite a lot to spark interest. I have seen especially a rise in the number of Web Design related jobs, where we lack contributions to help.
