ea-jobs's Introduction

A Twitter Bot that retweets job offers relevant to the EA community

This bot regularly checks whether it has been mentioned by someone in a tweet.

If the tweet that mentions @effective_jobs is a stand-alone tweet, it will retweet that tweet
If the tweet that mentions @effective_jobs is a reply to some other tweet, it will retweet that other tweet to which the person mentioning @effective_jobs has replied to (A posts tweet, B replies with "@effective_jobs", and the bot retweets the original tweet A made).

This way you can tag job offers that are relevant to the EA community and make them more visible.
