Come work with me at ITA ... and then Google

We hired a couple of people this winter and then paused, but now we're filling a couple more of those positions, and one of them is in my team. We need a new Reservations Operations person - this is the job I described as not really sysadmin, but needs someone with good sysadmin skills. It's also someone I'd work with directly, dealing with those weird airline protocols.

Since Google is supposed to buy ITA as soon as government regulators approve the deal (don't know when that will be, my guess is late fall / early winter of this year), this is also a way to get into Google, in case you happen to want to work for Google.

Wanna? If you have questions leave a comment. Apply here, and for "How were you referred to ITA?" choose "Employee Referral" and put my name in (and also leave a comment or email me), and I'll get someone to look at it quickly.

Edit: "Apply here" link updated from original post.

Man, that looks like a cool job.

[livejournal.com profile] inahandbasket pointed me this way. You and I have met once or twice (at chez [livejournal.com profile] fraterrisus to provide context), but I wouldn't say we know each other well enough that I'd ask you to put in a referral for me. I'll put it down if you're comfortable with it, but otherwise I can just apply sans referral.

I figured I'd post in here and see what you prefer.

If only I hadn't just taken a new position... and you were not way the hell up there :-p
I hope you find some good people!

Man, I wish I were in the market for a job!

Also, hi, I'm Lindsey and it looks like we have a bunch of friends in common.

'''this is also a way to get into Google without going through their bizarre and arbitrary hiring process'''

unlike ITA's bizarre and arbitrary hiring process? i've interviewed there several times, and wow, gotta say, whacky stuff.

Your "Apply here" link is bad. Sounds interesting but I'm not relocating. :)

My boyfriend is looking for a job and I'm trying my best to get him to come down to the Boston/Cambridge area, so I've passed him the link to the Careers page. (I'm not exactly sure what his level of programming expertise is, so he'd have to see what position(s) would fit.)

If something seems to fit, is it possible/useful to list you as an employee reference even if it's not for that particular position in your team?

Hi there! Last night at 2010 during the intermission, you mentioned that I should come find this post and apply - which I shall do this weekend - should I use the "Employee Referral" box despite us not knowing eachother very well?

Brandeis CS is looking for a new sysadmin; you might know someone, who would be a good fit:
