I'd like to make everyone aware of this new open position: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Job_openings/Bugmeister
I edited that page yesterday. Two parts were unclear to me, though:
Is the position intended to be full-time?
Yup.
And are local candidates really preferred?
All other things being equal, then having someone in the SF office would be preferred to someone working remotely. For an entry-level job like this, it's pretty tough to learn the ropes of the job and also learn everything necessary to be successful outside the main office. For a remote candidate to be considered, they'd pretty much have to already be part of the community and have demonstrated that they can do the job.
