I can’t believe Dave is still on the job market.
I don’t know him personally, but I know him by his posts and his code and I can recommend him without hesitation. The guy is one of the great thinkers of the Perl Community.
If I had hiring authority, I’d get him for my firm.
I agree. As much as I prefer working with people face-to-face on a day-to-day basis, I would totally hire him and trust him as a telecommuter.
Thanks for the recommendation. I have gotten a lot of interest, and I’m mid-discussion with a bunch of places.
One issue that makes this all harder than it could be is that I don’t want to move, and many places don’t want telecommuters.
I’d hire him but I’m afraid my job is too boring. ;)
Good luck Dave. It’s a shame that places have problems with telecommuting – it seems to make sense on both sides.
@stuart – you wouldn’t be hiring him for your job though would you? :-o
