[HLUG] Linux jobs in Hereford?

[Lee Yarwood]

Thanks guys

@Paul
I did see the Tiger computing vacancy advertised on the mailing list back in
April but the only problem is that I've not got a car and more importantly a
driving license at the moment so I'm not sure if it's worth applying.

@Alex
I've already attempted to apply for a QA vacancy at allpay but I've not
heard back from them yet. Have you worked for them before or just heard bad
things? Namesco looks like a decent company to work for but again without a
car I'm limited to jobs around Hereford.

I should probably say as well that I'm not specifically looking at jobs
involving Linux, any IT work in the area would be great. However my
background is mostly in QA/Dev work in a Linux/Unix C/bash./Java/PHP
environment.

Thanks again.

Lee
