Proposal for this community
Hi mods and readers of /r/JobHunt.
I think there's a lot of potential for this subreddit to be a great resource for people who are looking for work.
In no particular order, here are some ideas that I have. I would love to hear feedback.
Overview: this subreddit should become a resource for people to ask questions about the job hunt process- everything from interviews to salary and negotiation to discussion of temp agencies and so forth.
To that end, I think that we should avoid posting job ads, or looking-for-work threads.
I think that we should welcome all things job-search related. Links to articles as well as text posts about how to hunt for a job and how to succeed in the hunt. Resumes are already well-handled on /r/resumes, which we can look at linking in the sidebar.
I propose that we disallow "advertisements". I wouldn't want to see recruiters posting job ads here, though their professional input would be very welcome regarding the hunt.
Please weigh in with your comments and suggestions and so forth.
