When you’re looking for that perfect design, build, update or maintenance for your WordPress site, finding a resource for qualified candidates can seem daunting. Not only is it important to match your WordPress need to the best candidate, but it’s also imperative to get it right the first time.
On the other side of the WordPress job field there are the countless skilled developers, designers and coders looking for work. Here are a dozen excellent resources for helping match the need to the skill. I’ve included job boards that focus solely on WordPress as well as others that usually have a steady stream of WordPress-related work.

Awesome resource Sarah! There are several sites on your list I have not heard of. Will definitely be looking into them. ;-)
Take care.
As a recent grad, the big trend in my tech classes was the use of Xampp when managing a WP site. That is to say it was the most simplistic with the best features on windows. Also as a recent grad, it almost seems like all that was said throughout college about finding a job in the technical field was a lie. Although, the field is expanding i’ve had to resort to a employment agencies even to assist in my technical job search, because now that i’m months out of school, few positions are seemingly available.
