As the Computer Science Department receives job-related information from time to time, we have established a mailing list open to anyone (students, alumni and the public) interested in receiving this type of computer science job-related information. This mailing list communicates information about post-graduation employment opportunities (full-time, part-time, and contract) in relevant fields. Appropriate for industry professionals, alumni and those nearing graduation within a year. A few things should be noted about the jobs mailing list:

  • Individuals can join or leave the list at any time. See "How to Subscribe" and "How to Unsubscribe" below for instructions.
  • The list is moderated, so all postings are verified to be legitimate and appropriate before being distributed to the list.
  • List membership is not visible to anyone other than administrators of the list.

If you have CU credentials:

  • Sign into Google Groups with your CU credentials.
  • Search for cs-jobs in the groups list (Select "All groups" in the search dropdown)
  • On the right side of the screen click the arrow icon to join, or click on the group name and follow the prompts to join.

If you do not have CU credentials:

Subscribe via email:

  • Using the same email account that you want to use for your Google Group membership, open your email client and type cs-jobs+subscribe@colorado.edu into the To: field. The subject and body of the message are unused, and do not need to contain any content. 
  • You will receive an email to confirm your subscription. We recommend you ignore the button to click and instead reply to the message in your email client.
  • Then, Group managers will review your request and may approve it.

Alternatively, you can subscribe using the following method:

  • Sign into Google Groups with any gmail credentials.
  • Search for cs-jobs@colorado.edu in the groups list (Select "All groups" in the search dropdown)
  • On the right side of the screen click the arrow icon to join, or click on the group name and follow the prompts to join.
  • If neither above method works, email Amy.L.Richards@colorado.edu and indicate what email address you would like to subscribe to the list.

To unsubscribe via email:

  • Using the same email account that you want to use for your Google Group membership, open your email client and type cs-jobs+unsubscribe@colorado.edu into the To: field. The subject and body of the message are unused, and don’t have to be set. 
  • You should be unsubscribed from the Google Group after a short waiting period.     

Or, manage your subscription to the CS Jobs list in Google Groups:

  • Sign into Google Groups with your account affiliated with your subscription email.
  • Under My Groups, find the cs-jobs group and click on the group
  • On the left, select My membership settings
  • From there, you can click the Leave Group button or update how you would like to be contacted.

The posting must be plain text posting with no attachments. Messages with attachments of any kind are automatically discarded. Please provide the following in the posting:

  • Descriptive subject including company name and location
  • Info about the company and job location
  • Description of the job
  • Any wage or salary information
  • Contact information or instructions on how to apply 

Send the job-related posting to cs-jobs@colorado.edu 

Please note:

  • Postings with attachments may be automatically rejected to prevent the spread of malware, both intentional and unintentional. This includes any type of attachment that is non-plain-text, such as signature images or word documents.
  • Messages containing email addresses are often edited to remove the email address (to avoid spam). For contact information, we recommend listing an email address as "chip.buffalo [at] colorado.edu" or similar, to communicate the contact info successfully.
  • Postings unrelated to computer science jobs or postings unlikely to be of specific interest to the list will not be distributed.
  • Postings, if approved by the moderator, are forwarded to the list exactly as submitted, including both the subject and the entirety of the body of the message.
  • Subjects should be descriptive of the contents of the posting - for example, "Java development at XYZ Corp (Boulder, CO)" or "XYZ Corp info session (Sept. 20)" - rather than generic ones like "job", "FYI", "Help wanted", etc.
  • Postings that are more descriptive about the kind of work to be done are more likely to be read and generate interest than simple emails such as "Software development opportunity...contact me".
  • HTML-formatted emails are acceptable.
