Sounds pretty awesome. -- It's difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on him not understanding it. - Upton Sinclair From cjac at colliertech.org Mon Feb 6 05:30:42 2012 From: cjac at colliertech.org (C.J.

URL: From tim at consultix-inc.com Mon Feb 6 10:53:44 2012 From: tim at consultix-inc.com (Tim Maher) Date: Mon, 6 Feb 2012 10:53:44 -0800 Subject: SPUG: Looking for Contract Perl Trainers Message-ID: <20120206185344.GA3899@jumpy.consultix-inc.com> Call for Perl Trainers Consultix is looking for a couple of Perl Trainers to teach several upcoming classes to employees of US companies, on a contractual (i.e., tax form 1099) basis. About Consultix Consultix celebrated its 25th year in IT training last year along with the 5th anniversary of the release of Tim Maher's "Minimal Perl" book. Although the recent economic climate has been challenging for companies like ours that provide "non-essential" services, we're still alive and kicking--and currently looking for additional help! Mission Details A few "physical" classes will require travel to major US locations (mostly Eastern time zone), but most classes will be broadcasted via Internet webconferencing facilities from the Trainer's location. Candidates wishing to restrict their involvement to "physical" or "virtual" classes are welcome to apply, but preference will be given to those who can handle both class types. We'll also give preference to Trainers in the Seattle area, so we can meet with them face-to-face as needed (anybody remember that ancient form of contact?). Although qualified applicants from anywhere will be considered, the webconferencing sessions will be geared to US work schedules, so trainers in far-flung regions might want to think twice about the fit of their lifestyles to these assignments (e.g., a 9am-1pm class session in Seattle runs from 5pm-9pm in London, 10:30pm-2:30am in Mumbai, and 2am-6am in Tokyo). Presentation materials and an orientation to the Consultix way of teaching Perl will be provided (e.g., all classes are 50% hands- on; the "-n/-p" invocation options are generally worth using; the trailing "\n" on a print statement is the root of much evil; most programs should have curly braces around the "main" section to make "use strict" work the way people already believe it does). What we need from you is your demonstrable expertise in Perl programming and proven track record as an effective trainer. Interested? If so, email me relevant details of your background (including links as needed), list the weeks in Q1-Q2 during which you'll be available, and provide email addresses and phone numbers of references.

These require a bit more work than a simple mechanize script (for Selenium, you need a java-based driver running, and WWW::Mechanize::Firefox requires firefox with a specific plugin installed) but you still code in perl. I've had great luck with older versions of Selenium (haven't tried anything recent) for testing Firefox and IE.
