Anyone actually find one through Craigslist?
Yep. After I got my CISSP cert about 6 years ago, my wife spammed my resume out to every job she could find. The one I took was an $85k security engineer gig in Denver, and it came from Craigslist. They flew me out from Dallas for the interview, and relocated us here two weeks later. I never would have even thought to look for jobs on Craigslist.

Yep that's how I landed my job.
Our recruiting dept. using craigslist sometimes. I have hired a few applicants that have come in from CL. There is a lot of scams on there but not all of them.
My client uses CL almost exclusively for job postings.
My shop manager was hired through a CL add. My next employee will be a tech, kinda, so wont come from CL. Getting a half trained shop monkey from one of the tech schools so that I can make sure any bad habits they have are MY bad habits, not something they picked up elsewhere. But I am very very happy with Shannon (shop manager) and have had good success hiring from CL. I hired someone else from CL at my last shop.
I've found a few PT jobs since retirement on there.
Of course I had to sort through a LOT of chaff with the applications... A LOT.
I'm not surprised. I buy and sell through Craigslist and for a decade have relied on CL almost exclusively to advertise my rental property. For a while I was using both newspaper classifieds and CL but quickly learned that legitimate replies came almost entirely from CL, about 10:1. Newspapers priced themselves out of the market when it cost $150-$300 to place a 30 day ad. CL is the major resource for renters and landlords.Quote:

We hired, and I have looked for opportunity through CL before. It's good.
