I created a bot that talks to recruiters for me (and it's sooo good)
- MastrChefRocks 8y agoIs this website's performance as bad for everyone else as it is for me? Scrolling is very jittery, and it seems to only be this page that's behaving so poorly.
- illwrks 8y agoYes, terrible for me also.
- breakingcups 8y agoNot to mention the obnoxious beating heart button. It's super distracting when I'm just trying calmly to read an article. First thing I did when landing on that page was use uBlock (Origin)'s eyedropper to permanently banish it.
- jhoh 8y agoThere's also an animated Ninja Turtle gif in the fixed sidenav. I can't image how someone could think that this was a good idea (especially on a website where all the main content is text).
- t0astbread 8y agoDoesn't even load for me
- xaedes 8y agoBrowsing on Chrome with uBlockOrigin and PrivacyBadger gives me a completely smooth experience on this website. Feels like a static site.
- mikekchar 8y agoThis was a lot more interesting for me than I expected. I usually don't talk to random recruiters. I have very high expectations from a recruiter and usually try to keep in touch to a handful (less than 5) recruiters that I know are good. Generally, to grab my attention you have to show me you're better than them somehow. However, the concept of inviting recruiters to "apply" for my attention is fantastic. I'm not so sure about the bot idea... but a quick and dirty web page that says, "If you want to attract my attention, leave me relevant information here". I could even keep track of the applications and blacklist the worst offenders (who just spam people indiscriminately).
