This is not a google group. This is a usenet group that google
provides access to (along with many, many non-google ISPs and news
services). The group comp.lang.java.programmer is unmoderated; job
postings are on the whole tolerated (barely) in small quantities but
seem to go ignored.

I'm pretty sure this group is 100% unmoderated. Although I haven't read
through the FAQ recently.

Advertising and such are generally not permitted, but we get plenty of
job adverts anyway. I don't mind them, as long as they are actual jobs
and not scams for someone's fly-by-night Web 2.0 dumb idea. A few
people feel differently, but you're not likely to get more than one
person replying with a tired "go away we don't want you here,"
self-important response, although I don't speak for the whole group.

I would just go ahead and post a simple job listing. Try not to bore us
with too much HR boilerplate. And if you have more than listing, please
put them in one post, dont' spam-up the group with multiple posts.
Please post no more than once a week, and once every two weeks or less
would be even better. Please post a URL where we can check your job
listings ourselves. That way job seekers who might be interested in
working for you can bookmark the URL and check it themselves periodically.
