We're looking to fill a junior programmer position in Edmonton, Alberta (Canada).

It's an entry-level position doing .NET development mixed in with some maintenance, design, DB work, and everything else. The manager for the position is a good dude, and it's a good job in a stable company with opportunity for advancement. Drop me a PM if you're interested.

I'm also looking for a strong programmer for my team. If you fit that bill (and want a job in Edmonton), give me a shout.

Looking for a good programmer (another one, actually - I did a post earlier and we've hired a couple times since then - we just keep growing).

Job Title: Programmer/Analyst (possibly senior or junior, depending on what applicants we get)
Location: Edmonton, Alberta (Canada)
Languages: .NET
Technology: Web/database stuff
Availability: Fulltime, starting soon
Contact: jmzero@gmail.com

This job will be focused on further building out a new, successful web platform for insurance. I'm not terribly bothered what specific technologies you're familiar with; mostly we just need someone bright and with strong general programming skills. Is that you? Do you want to work in Edmonton? Really?

Well, if so then give me a shout.

Yeah it's not that alone that makes me twitch, it's what it says about the company. If they nickel-and-dime like that when they're trying to attract new people, what kind of garbage do they pull once people have been there a while? In what kind of other ways are they short-sighted? It sets off little alarm bells in my head, especially after my last job which was rife with ridiculous penny-wise, pound-foolish policies.

I don't know that it's all that big of an indicator of their decision making - probably just a symptom of fast growth. When you're a small company, you tend to hire local. We certainly did - it's only recently that we've put more effort into bringing people in from further afield; our most recent hire is also the first guy we paid relocation for (that I can think of, anyway).

Lots of stuff changes as you grow, and it sounds like these guys are growing fast. To me, their situation looks like a pretty good time to get in.
