You're right. I wonder if this was part of the plan for stack overflow from the beginning. This is an ingenious way to monetize its existing user base while creating incentives for stack overflow users to keep creating valuable content for free.

Speaking of, I wonder how many millions an open HN job board could make? The people I'd like to hire are stackoverflow, github, and HN users.
PG can we please do this? We're looking to hire 15+ people right now and we are running out of good people in Toronto.
If you're willing to work with telecommuters, I'm still looking for a job, with no luck, in the Cincinnati area...
Unfortunately, not yet. What type of work do you do though, I may know some people looking for someone with your skills. See my above comment for my email.
I am in Toronto. What exactly are you looking for ?
Tons of positions. Developers, DBAs, UX designers, design leads, sales, support, marketing managers, community leaders. Send me an email to p.engineer@gmail.com or zach@freshbooks.com. I'll send you all the details, answer your questions, and make sure the CV gets sent around the dev team. If we end up hiring you (or anyone else out there in TO looking for work) I'll split the referral bounty (0 to $5k, depending on the position) 50-50 :)
It's possible, but people should note he already had a job board at jobs.joelonsoftware.com.
