Qandidate and TalentSquare only ask for a commission when posting jobs to non-free job search websites (plus background checks and other things we ...

C. Use a corporate recruitment tool. Haiku is almost ready for Beta. That means it's time to start thinking about professional support staff. That is a slight departure from past practices.

Therefore, I'd be comfortable to manually delete all state-folders but the last few newest ones every few months (if I need space). Excellent, I haven’t had to roll back either (I’m just using VMware and take a snapshot before I update) but the state folders didn’t all have exactly the same set of packages so I was initially wary. Things seem just fine having ...

We transferred the domains from GoDaddy to Namecheap today, and while the name servers were still pointed to godaddy after the transfer, it seems godaddy purged our DNS records immediately forcing me to reconstruct it as quickly as possible. As such, there may be some hiccups as the new DNS propogates through the internets. Sorry for the irritation, if I known that would occur, I would have done things a bit differently. ...
