Checking in on Authentic Jobs

July 10, 2007 in WorkHappy.net Advertiser

As mentioned before, WorkHappy.net has teamed with Authentic Jobs to provide a means for finding web designer or developer talent, or finding work yourself (see the upper right column on this site).

I gave it a try myself

The last few months have given me an opportunity to utilize AJ (Authentic Jobs) for my own purposes. I've advertised for a copywriter, a PHP developer, and a Flash animator.

The results:

Copywriter post: 10 responses, half were excellent, 2 were off the charts. The woman we hired should be the CEO of our company, she's superhumanly amazing.
Flash animator post: 38 responses, about 10 were stunning.
PHP developer post: 31 responses, most were solid including about 6 that just blew me away. The guy we hired absolutely rocks.

Some stats

AJ offers freelance and full time jobs. For fun, here's a quick run down of what's cooking on the full-time side as of today, July 10, 2007:

68 total job posts
48 are full time jobs
- 3 of them allow you to work from "anywhere" 1, 2, 3
- 9 are in California
- 9 are in New York
- 4 are outside the US (all in London)
- 5 looking for Flash designers
- 2 looking for AJAX skills
High visibility companies hiring:

And a big thanks to Cameron Moll and Authentic Jobs for supporting WorkHappy.net.

I'll check out that site. I'm a copywriter, too.
I just found your site and put it on my books newsletter as a link:)
