Third time I've seen this ad. I responded to this two months ago, with twenty years experience, with the last five in ETL with Django specifically. In PST and the "one people come to with problems."

Did not even receive a reply. Certainly they've seen a worthwhile candidate by now.

This is about versafeed btw.

I agree with you that companies should respond to applicants, but posts like this are against the rules in Who Is Hiring threads, as the top text makes clear.

We detached this comment from >>44759874 .

They're not: "Please only post if you are actively filling a position and are committed to responding to applicants."

Please restore it. I can show receipts.

That could certainly be. The trouble is that we have no way of sorting out which companies are doing what—there would need to be some kind of 'due process' whereby the community could assess the fairness of different claims, and Who Is Hiring threads are no place for doing that. So in the end we just ask people not to post these.

It's not to deny that these things are a problem, just that it can't be fairly decided here.

How would you know if the see-saw tipped and the problem is more pressing when HN users are advised not to reply to job posts to complain about something?

Should users reply somewhere else or email HN directly? Should users accumulate karma and downvote or flag the posts? Care to put this in the text on top?
