I noticed a thread at SEW where two Yahoo! reps are individually seeking new employees. Not sure if it's a competition, but it's funny to read one after the other:
I work for Yahoo Search marketing here in Pasadena.. Anyways we are hiring like crazy, all across the board.. Anyways, if anyone is interested please send me your resume
Thanks,
Josh Stomel
And this one:
Want to work for Yahoo Search Marketing Engineering? Email me your resume.
Jeremy Langhans
I wonder who'll get more applications... Personally, I'd want to work for Jeremy in engineering, but I'd bet that Josh and his team are cool, too. Yahoo! has a very good rep right now compared to their major competition. Kudos to them for achieving that, although they've primarily achieved by avoiding foolish mistakes (maybe that's tougher than it looks).
thanks for pointing people my way! in fact, the best way to plug into the jobs i rep for yahoo inc is to check out the Talent Network tab on jeremylanghans.com

Cool:-)
Jeremy - Thanks for clearing that up. I know a few good folks seeking jobs (mostly ex MS folks) and I will point them in your direction.
