My 2p worth! I have to agree with David. I have posted several job adverts on this list and not just for positions in my Lab but also those of colleagues. It has proved especially useful in cases where a prospective employer is after a cytometrist but doesn't know where else to advertise. Also, as David said, those of us on here may know someone who is right for a post and we wouldn't have any other way of knowing that such a post was available. Its a passive absorption rather than an active process. I may have missed a post but I presume this is a conscious decision? Steve, Paul, any comments?
