Hi all, I'm looking for some advice on other places beyond libraryland where I might recruit a developer for the new repository service we are developing at the Metropolitan New York Library Council. About a week ago I posted a job for a Digital Repository Developer on the code4lib job board. https://jobs.code4lib.org/jobs/34771-digital-repository-developer When I posted it here, I hit all (or most) of the other usual or appropriate spots... web4lib, lita, drupal4lib, etc. And yay, I do indeed have some resumes already, so *thank you* to those communities! I wonder though: does anyone on the list have experience (good or bad) or stories to share about recruiting from other places outside our immediate professional circles... CS programs, code schools, etc? I'm really committed to putting in the time and energy to scour the earth to find the right fit and to build a happy, healthy team for this initiative. Thanks for your thoughts- -- Nate Hill natehill.net
