Sounds like a resume builder! What about: "Are you willing to relocate at
your expense? Are you willing to relocate at employers expense? Will you
take a lower paying job if it includes benefits? Will you commute more than
30 miles?" etc etc etc. It seems that if evolt is going to code a job
center, then we should consider a full blown resume application, complete
with job postings, automatic job matching to resumes, etc.
No offense to anyone, cause I love the idea, but basically, in this
environment feature creep is going to be full-blown and unmanageable. We
got way to many smart people on thelist to continue this conversation.
Therefore, I suggest it gets moved to thesite where it belongs. At least
there, the idea is that everybody participating is actually willing to
*code* the tool, and not just talk it into gold-plate high heaven until it's
so big nobody wants to tackle it. :)
