Canonical jobs /have/ always been rendered in the Ubuntu Jobs page, in addition to the (slim number of) jobs advertised from others (eg. Oxford Archeology). This is the Ubuntu Jobs page content that got shuffled off to the following webapps URL (and on which the Canonical jobs are /still/ listed):

  http://webapps.ubuntu.com/employment/

Specifically when the content was shuffled off; (1) initially no redirect was put in place, (2) later, after this bug was filed, a redirect was added, but pointing /off-site/ to canonical.com and the Canonical-exclusive jobs listing.

Assuming I understood the intent of the following correctly (eg. "<sabdfl> ubuntu.com/employment should be open to jobs unrelated to canonical, but relevant to ubuntu"):

  http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2010/08/17/%23ubuntu-meeting.html#t12:06

then the current redirect appears to be incompatible with that desire and the suggested ideals of encouraging wider corporate outreach/engagement within the Ubuntu eco-sphere.
