@cackhanded @larister @rossbruniges Yeah. Probably not of anyone I interview. But certainly in reaching the interview stage.
@cackhanded @larister @rossbruniges How so? You don't think that making it easier for employers to learn about you can improve your chances?
@larister @cackhanded @rossbruniges Quite true. It's not a mandatory requirement, but improves the chances for front-end dev candidates.
@larister @cackhanded @rossbruniges I've done coding tests before, but first I like to see devs care enough about the web to engage in it
@rossbruniges @cackhanded Using guy feeling & and BD filters might land me in some trouble!
@rossbruniges @cackhanded That's my second filter. Calling every candidate who submit a CV is not often realistic.
@cackhanded Perhaps CVs need to work harder in those cases. It's easy to list techs. But evidence, opinion, craftsmanship & engagement?
@cackhanded I don't think that I can interview every applicant with a buzzword filled CV. Engagement in the medium is my first filter.
@cackhanded You found great web developers who didn't have any footprint on the web? Teach me!
@StuRobson Yes. Like that! Looking for work in London? @rga are recruiting a (permanent) senior front-end engineer.

Dear jobbing web developers, I urge you to have a site of your own. A portfolio page, links to github & projects makes it easier to hire you
@benoitgrelard @andyshora @peduarte It's actually a pretty thrifty implementation. 3.6 MB is much lighter than I expected. But **NOISE**
Ahoy my Oz friends. You should grab the chance to listen to @brad_frost with both hands if you possibly can. https://twitter.com/brad_frost/status/399717586662748161

Smiling on the NY Subway. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9jIsxQNz0M
@joemccann Ha. I'll be in NY again before too long. I'll track you down!
@joemccann Yeah. Had to change plans at the last minute and missed out. Oh well.
@joemccann Booo.
@joemccann How long are you in London?
@brianleroux @fullfrontalconf Doh! Oh well. It was a long shot. I hope it was another good 'un!

Considering brunch in Brighton at 11am. Wondering if there are any @fullfrontalconf or #sideviewconf scallywags still in town.
@jenville creepy creepy crawly crawly…
@stephenhay But drinking it to your good health. (And in the name of research!)
