 Posting a web developer job? Have new vacancy at our company, where do people post there jobs and where do they find the most successful in getting good applicants. I don't want to spend a fortune although I will spend a bit. Currently have it up on this site: Jeebers - Web Application Developer (PHP) Have had a decent response in the past along with a few other places althouh not much hits at the moment. It is coming up to xmas so that might be a factor.

| Trying to find a strong PHP developer in the current climate for 36k - 40k is going to be tough. That's not to say it's a particularly bad salary (albeit entry level for Dublin in this day and age) but the supply of decent developers simply isn't there - it's an employees market now. I know PHP developers earning 80k+ per year at the minute. Granted they're experienced but to get someone good, that's what you're up against.  |

| that sir is a scary thought... It does seem like the PHP/Linux heads are few and far between these days. In the last 2 years things seem to have changed quite a bit. None of the current courses have graduates with any of these skills. I did CA in DCU and the current crop don't seem to have any real knowledge of unix. Not good for all these web development companies still using the LAMP framework. I remember putting up a similar job posting for 28-30k 2 years ago and getting floods of CVs. |

| Scary indeed. A couple of years ago supply was plentiful and people were desperate for work and willing to settle for circa 30k positions. However, I've lost count of the number of friends and ex-colleagues who have changed career paths in the last 3 or 4 years as a result of this. Now that the market is a bit more buoyant, demand has outstripped supply and designers and developers can command much higher salaries. |

| @TheMenace shhhh, someone might hear you  Cheers, I might have to re-think my offer. Still that makes me think maybe outsourcing to another country is a better alternative. I would normally avoid this but when you look at the numbers now its a big gap in cost. Last edited by dereko; 17-12-2007 at 04:03 PM. |
