Employment solicitations (and responses thereto) are off-topic (and
unwelcome to serious technical Q&A participants) in technical
discussion newsgroups. Since most of the _experienced_ regular
participants view these posts as unwelcome and will not respond, it is
also not a particularly fertile field for finding _qualified_
candidates.
In fact, most ISPs post information on Newsgroup Netiquette and explain
that advertisements and employment solicitations are prohibited in all
newsgroups EXCEPT those whose charter specifically allows them. The
charter of comp.lang.basic.visual.misc does not allow either.
By the way, there are quite a number of jobs newsgroups and job sites
which are likely to be more productive than this newsgroup. Using any
of the major search engines with search words of "jobs" and "computers"
will find you a great many sites devoted to job posting, resume
posting, or both. Your news source should have a list of the newsgroups
they carry... look for ones with "jobs" in the name. Many of the �jobs�
newsgroups are identified by locality � there is likely one for yours.
We assume you just did not know the rules; we are not offended, but
just trying to keep the traffic in the newsgroup within reasonable
bounds and hold it to its intended purpose of technical questions,
answers, and discussion. On the other hand, it does seem to me that
we've had employment posts from COMSYS in Austin before and responded
with a similar gentle admonishment. Perhaps that was a predecessor who
neglected to tell you that spamming newsgroups is not the way to obtain
well-qualified candidates who play by the rules ("team players"). I
wish you much good luck in finding qualified candidates; I _hope_ that
you will pursue that elsewhere. Thanks for your future consideration.
