Web Developer (Mid Level) *Don't click here if you're a recruiter

[lukeyluke]

I run a digital marketing agency called Markets Online in JHB, and we are looking for a young up-and-coming PHP web developer. marketsonline.co.za

We've had absolutely no luck with recruiters, so if you are a recruiter and thinking of phoning me - please don't.

In light of my fruitless efforts with entirely unknowledgable recruiters I'm asking any of you that fit the description to contact us.

If you know anyone who might be suitable and is looking for a job upgrade please send this thread their way.

We pay well and are looking for top talent in their 20s.

Why the age requirement ?

I do not have the required background so I won't apply

@ajv Generally if you're good, you're a mid-senior developer in your 30's. But there are always exceptions. We are not by any means hard and fast on this one.

Thanks, was just wondering. Good luck with the search. I know of several companies looking for PHP guys, that are struggling to fill seats.
