Hacker News' Who is Hiring?
Every month, someone creates a post on Hacker News for people to add job listings in the comments. It's not easy to link to, since it's a new post every month. This is how I find the current one for each month.
- Using Google, search for "hacker news who is hiring {month} {year}". For example: "hacker news who is hiring september 2016"
- It's usually the first result, so click it.
- Using the browser's in-page search (usually Ctrl-F or Cmd-F), search for "Clojure"
