Using Framers to network for job-hunting?

[Sarah O'Keefe]

If you create a spinoff list, you reduce the chances that employers  
will actually know about it and/or post there. I highly recommend  
allowing posting of available jobs on the main list. Perhaps a spinoff  
could be for job-seeking discussion?
