Personal note - jobs section

I got a lot of feedback on my question from last week on whether I should add a jobs section, and all of it was positive. Thanks for that!
There aren't many companies yet though who want to actually post jobs, and we can't have demand without supply. So if you want to share security-related positions with a wide range of interested people, let me know!
