I said this earlier on reddit too, but I think it is a bit too 
narrow to look for jobs that directly use D as a measure.

Don't get me wrong, it'd be nice if there were more, but I 
actually got a couple out-of-the-blue job offers over the last 
month explicitly due to my experience with D - they saw it as a 
good indicator.

Now, imagine if a bunch of companies are hiring people with D 
experience... it is just a matter of time before D users are in 
decision-making positions...


But even if that doesn't come to pass, these are hiring people 
who recognize the name D and see some value in candidates who 
know it, even if it just shows ongoing professional development. 
Not a bad thing!
