An interesting coincidence

    This just may be a recruiters version of monkeys and typewriters however whilst doing my day job today I was asked about this role:

    http://jobview.monster.ie/Snr-Java-Developer-Java-EE-Engineer-Job-DUBLIN-Ireland-103695636.aspx

    A Java developer advertised by Computer Futures in Dublin.

    I googled it and found that it bears a "remarkable" similarity to this job:
    http://tbe.taleo.net/NA1/ats/careers/requisition.jsp?org=EKKON&cws=1&rid=309

    A role with a Vancouver based company.

    Upon further investigation this company, "Elastic Path" told me that they have no presence in Ireland nor is this something they are aware of.

    I'd appreciate it if a third party confirms the similarities, nay verbatim replication of the latter for me before the former is taken down.

    Call me cynical, but it looks exactly like an example of fishing for Java CVs using an existing spec that nobody (ahem) would find.

    Would love an angle from Computer Futures? Anybody? More than happy to be proven wrong but it looks most peculiar.
