I get a fair number of emails from companies and (mostly) recruiters, looking for designers or (mostly) developers. Almost none of them are jobs that meet my needs or qualifications, but they all say "or pass it on if you know someone."

Well, you are the people I know, so instead of doing nothing with all these, or emailing them to one or two individuals, I am going to start posting them up here. Just tell the recruiters you got referred by your good friend Steven Hoober.

Yes, I'll totally post your jobs if I feel like it. Just send me a message with this form.
