The gist: Here is a novel concept from the world of Boolean based job research and surfing: a careers site that provides content only derived from the career pages of hiring companies. Ideally, if the premise rings true, then this should minimize, if not eliminate any re-posting of ads from other general search sites,…

I’ve been out of touch on the blogging for a little while now, focusing on my latest gig: I have taken a sourcing gig at a local Silicon Valley networking company (not Cisco). While very exciting, it has had it’s share of challenges: learning a new company, it’s products, it’s norms, it’s…
