<br>
Not sure why you think you must choose between posting to this list<br>
and searching LinkedIn.<br>
Why not both?<br>
<br>
I am by no means a LinikedIn fan, but it's definitely a real thing,<br>
and I wouldn't be surprised if I<br>
heard that tens of percents of all tech job assignments in Israel are<br>
through/thanks to it. I have<br>
absolutely no idea about real numbers and/or deeper implications (such<br>
as job retention when<br>
through LinkedIn vs otherwise, etc.).<br>
<br>
I personally work for Red Hat, for 8+ years now. No idea if we have<br>
jobs that can suit<br>
you, but you are welcome to have a look. The Israeli office has ~ 500<br>
people now and is<br>
growing quite quickly.<br>
<br>
Incidentally, I also got this job thanks to linkedin - I noticed there<br>
that some old acquaintance<br>
moved to Red Hat and thought it might be a good idea for me as well...<br>
<br>
To the rest of the list: I hope this doesn't sound like an<br>
advertisement for Red Hat. I<br>
considered replying in private and decided it's ok as-is. I hope that's ok...<br>
<br>
Good luck and best regards,<br>
