Consider rapid high-quality development both requirements, not trade-offs

Design and business oriented -- you understand requirements beyond the written word (whether you're working on an API used by other developers, an internal tool for our operations team, or a feature used by our enthusiastic users, your attention to details leads to a delightful user experience)

[KITlist-Tech] From Sue: Follow our new KIT List Facebook page!

 

Hi everyone,

I just created a KIT List Facebook page for KIT List job posts so we have a sure way to get jobs out to you. 

Please LIKE or FOLLOW our new page: https://www.facebook.com/KITlistJobs/. 

As you may already know, we depend on Yahoo Groups to send out the KIT List job emails free. With the recent sale of Yahoo by Verizon, I'm trying to find other mail solutions (any recommendations are welcome!). But due to our email volume, we're WAY over the free limits for all of the email platforms I've been researching. With over 72,000 people in our KIT List community, we send out over 62 million job emails a year. 

I do this as a community service, along with the very important help from my sister, Kelly, and longtime friend, Amy Plunkett. We all have our "day" jobs and do this in our spare time for you.  

This new Facebook page will allow us another way to reach you. We'll feature one job post per day (we don't have a way to automate it to profile ALL jobs yet), and to send out other important messages. 

Please "Follow" or "Like" our new page, and we appreciate your sharing job posts so we can help more people find a great job. 

As always, new people can join the KIT List free and receive job postings by email by going to: http://www.KITlist.org


UPCOMING KIT LIST EVENT (10/3): 
I just set the date for the next KIT List "FriendWorking" Job Networking Event for Monday, 10/3 at 6:00 PM at The Patio in Palo Alto. You can RSVP via the MeetUp invitation at:

Thank you for being an important part of our KIT List community and I look forward to seeing you on 10/3!


Sue Connelly 
KIT List Founder

[KITlist-Tech] File - How to Unsubscribe

Hi Everyone,

As a reminder, if you don't wish to receive KIT List emails, you can either change your settings to stop the emails, but which will still allow you to view the job postings via the web...or you can unsubscribe from the group entirely.

1. To stop emails, but remain on the KIT List to view jobs on the web:

Go to the KIT List home page on Yahoo Groups at:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/KITlist-Tech

Go to the "Edit Membership" link near the top of the page right above the blue bar saying "Sue Connelly's Keep In Touch List." Then go under "Message Delivery" and choose "Special Notices." Be sure to choose "Special Notices" since we do occasionally send out important messages from the moderators. Then hit the "Save Changes" button at the bottom of the page.


2. If you'd like to opt out of the KIT List, just simply send an email (from the email address you wish to remove) to:

KITlist-Tech-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com

This can take 24 hours or so to kick in. If you're still not unsubscribed after a day, then email us at KITlist-Tech-owner@yahoogroups.com and we'll help.


If you joined via the groups website, then you simply need to go here:

http://groups.yahoo.com/mygroups

And then select "edit my groups." Go to the right side of the page and check the box saying "Leave Group" and then hit the "Save Changes" button at the bottom of the page.

Thanks!

[KITlist-Tech] File - Subscription Tips to Post, Subscribe, Unsubscribe

 


Gang:

I've compiled a few "tips and tricks" on using the KITlist-Tech group with the hopes that this information will eliminate direct mail to the moderators with these questions. Please read through these instructions.

The best way to use Yahoo groups is via the Yahoo groups website. By doing so, this allows you to change your email preferences from individual emails, to daily digest, to no email at all. Here's how:

Go to:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/KITlist-Tech/

If you're not already a member, you'll join here. This allows you to then edit your membership and indicate your email preferences. Also, you can read all job postings via the website, respond directly to posts without having to decipher a cut-off email address, and peruse archived messages.

Of course, you can also subscribe by sending an email to:

KITlist-Tech-subscribe@yahoogroups.com

And you can unsubscribe by sending an email from the address you subscribed with to:

KITlist-Tech-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com

Are you a recruiter/employer? Please visit our website where you can post jobs to our subscriber base at: www.kitlist.org

To join the NON-TECH list, send email to:

KITlist-subscribe@yahoogroups.com

And finally, to reach your list moderators, email:

KITlist-Tech-owner@yahoogroups.com

Hope this information helps!

Cheers,

Amy Sloniker
KITlist-Tech Moderator
