Hi,  
This is not spam, or anything like that.

I am an executive head hunter trying to fill a full time, full benefit  
position for a Ruby on Rails developer with 2 years of experience in  
the field, and at least 4 years as a web developer. I’ve tried all  
the normal methods (plus a few of our own tricks), and I’m still not  
getting all that big of a return.

Is anybody looking for a position, or at least know of any developers  
who might?

Even a small lead (this company uses them, or that school certifies  
them) would help.

Thanks,  
Aaron

Hi Aaron,

Most folks that post here looking for RoR developers tend to give at  
least a  
little of info about the position, where it’s located, that kind of  
thing.  
Got anything like that to share?

Best regards,  
Bill

Bill,

Sure, sorry about that. This is a full time staff position, full  
benefits, with a $6 billion consulting company in Hartford, CT.  
Salary will be between about 60K and 70K, depending on experience and  
availability. They’re also looking for the candidate to have  
experience with Relational Databases like SQL Server or Oracle.  
That’s about all the information I can provide while still keeping my  
client confidential. If you wanted more information, you can send me  
an email and I would be happy to discuss it further.

They are willing to pay relocation costs for the right candidate.

Do you know anyone who might be interested in hearing more?

Thanks,  
Aaron
