Let Your LAMP Shine: New Python Web Jobs

More than once, someone has noted that it can be difficult finding a job that requires Python -- almost as if they don't exist. Then someone in the same discussion usually notes that Python is used all over the place; the difference is that Python programmers tend to really enjoy their jobs and so don't leave them. But there still are many available, if you know where to look. More often than not, Python works in conjunction with other technologies to form a solution. So in addition to the regular area for Python jobs, I list here some recent vacancies that require web-oriented skills -- Linux, Apache, MySQL, and Python (LAMP). If you need more information on any of those, be sure to visit those links. If you are still unsure how Python and MySQL go together, see my tutorials. Then dust off your CV or resume and see if you are ready for one of these posts.
