do they have an office in columbus? the reason i see is just to get more 
posts out for the same job listing. there is a rule about not repeating 
job posts too often and this skirts the rule. they could list every city 
in the country and post dozens of times each day. in this current batch 
of posts, they sent in 6 for the same job. not only is it redundant, it 
can crowd out other single job postings.
