Message from the YPOP about how this can help you:

What’s cool is that some employers who work with Boly Welch will be wanting to meet some unemployed tech folks who they may potentially hire at this event.

From YPOP Press Release:

Our community has been hit hard by the recession and the tech crowd has seen the impact first-hand. However, there remains massive energy around Portland’s technology scene that doesn’t always find its way to the companies and individuals who can most benefit from its vitality.

We believe strongly that the metro area possesses the resources and the will to take care of its own. Boly:Welch and YPOP invite you to meet our most innovative local talent at the first ever Pink Slip Party.

The Sponsors: Boly:Welch Recruiting and Young Professionals of
Portland at Backspace!

The Crowd: Portland’s technology professionals on the job market or
seeking new opportunities.

The Concept: Connect with other job seekers and employers in this
social networking format

Portland Twitter Jobs

pdxjobs — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 04:47:35 +0000

In these economic times, many people are discovering that using social media tools can be highly valuable to network, research, and find career opportunities.

A few months back, I started a twitter account (@pdxjobs) to syndicate good & interesting jobs I found across the net. Luckily, we live a great community here in Portland and many people have helped. From the beginning, other PDXers were sending me jobs to post. KGW even had me/@pdxjobs on “Live at 7″ to help people find jobs.

If you are on twitter, I hope @PDXJobs helps you. Also, send me jobs you find, retweet it & use #pdxjobs hash-tag so others can follow jobs across the search timeline.

Because jobs range a great deal, I created a few others that cater only to certain fields. They aren’t quite running yet but, they will within a week so follow them if you are looking for jobs in these fields

Other accounts:

Clicking name on left takes you to twitter account. Clicking description on right takes you to posts here in that category.
