This forum?

*facepalm* when have you seen a real VC funded company post a job listing here.

Well, if it is bitcoin related it's going to have a topic here, then you can go to the company's website and check if they're recruiting...

I've always wondered this. I never see actual companies posting on this forum, but I can't help because I don't know any place.

I think coinbase.com, an online wallet company, has a job position open for people!

I'm hoping more companies see this and act upon it. I'm sure they would gain a lot of intelligent people. Especially IT companies.

I have been thinking about making a startup, but I don't have the funds needed and honestly I don't think I have the time/won't be able to make the commitment.  :-\

I say go for it! Just do it! I did it and I couldn't be happier with my life. Otherwise I be working at a bank writing trading software or writing a bank website, and I knew I didn't want that. The only reason I am really l am looking for work is cause I don't want to be drawing my bitcoins

Wow you sound very succesfull! Of course it is obvious from your -begging for donations- signature but anyway...

Hmm. Thanks for the advice. I will definitely be thinking about it in the near future. And hey, I don't care if I'm selling out until I get some sort of legit income ;D

I say go for it. And we all sell out LOL naw I was just pointing out to that "troll" that their is no difference from a banner and a donation address.

Alright well I will look into the details of what I might want to do. And yeah I know about selling out ;)

I have been thinking about making a startup, but I don't have the funds needed and honestly I don't think I have the time/won't be able to make the commitment.  :-\

I would suggest trying doing it on the side, nights, weekends, any free time. I mean for $25 you can get a VPS and a pretty good domain. Funds should never hold you back on startup in bitcoin land if it is a website. I say go for it! Just do it! I did it and I couldn't be happier with my life. Otherwise I be working at a bank writing trading software or writing a bank website, and I knew I didn't want that. The only reason I am really l am looking for work is cause I don't want to be drawing my bitcoins it is becoming way too time consuming to plan each month and how much I should transfer every two weeks. All my money is in bitcoins right now, plus I want benefits none of my previous venture were big enough where I had to hire people so I didn't have any benefits or medical and I want it.
So how do you make money off your site? Do listers pay to have their site listed? I don't see any ads on your page or any other sort of income.

Actually that site in my signature was for built for someone by me and I was just trying to help him and put it in my signature, because it is a great dude. So technically I get a very small portions of the profits, but I do get something. Currently I am just living off the interest of being an early adopter as I build more startups.

Ah alright.

Maybe I should put a big colorful banner in my signature instead... but that would be called selling out.

I m not pretending to be a start-up guy while begging for donations...
And yes maybe you should. It is called selling ad space... Way better than begging for money...

LMAO pretending to be a start-up guy LMAO I pretty sure I am not pretending cause I sold 2 companies both for 6 figures so yeah. How about this go troll someone else and take your meaning less .00002 BTCs from your "Ad Space" go bother someone else. When you have 2000+ Bitcoins then talk to me :)
Haha, you know something is funny when you use LMAO's as quotation marks ;)
