Its CrunchBoard time, so let’s take a look back at the recent job news.

Super Secret startup MOBshop is looking for some serious coding guns for hire. They say MOBshop “will hit the intersection of mobile and physical worlds.”

If your looking to get your name out there and do some networking, Card.ly lets you create some cool online business cards. It’s time to get yourself a presence online, cause you know, this internet thing is here to stay. And we’re all about that business card dying thing.

Things still don’t look good for the print media industry as the CondĂ© Nast layoffs continue. They’ve hired consultants from McKinsey to help with the cuts, with the first casualty being their web brand for men. Well, atleast they’re hiring somebody.

Here is our layoff tracker, which is updated regularly. If your on the hunt for a new job, CrunchBoard may be the place to find a new opportunity. Check out a snapshot of the jobs available below:

Thanks again to all of you who came out to our Real Time Stream CrunchUp and August Capital Summer Party. We broke 600 attendees to the Real Time Stream CrunchUp, double our initial expectations, and we hosted lots more of you at the August Capital outing. We had an amazing group of CrunchUp speakers to talk about new trends, boundaries and your passions. And we fit in 22 new product highlights from start-ups and big internet companies alike. It was a blast, and we’ve got the photos to prove it.

tps-reportsIf you’re annoyed by TPS reports right now, consider yourself lucky. This week saw the staff reduction of MySpace by 30%, to bring the total number down around 1000 employees. Things dont look good abroad as well.

But the situation might be turning a corner. Last week the U.S. Labor Department issued their Unemployment Insurance Weekly Claims Report. While it showed an increase of 608,000 in jobless claims last week, the number of continuing claims dropped to under 6.7 million.
