We're not a recruiting firm, and we'll make this distinction very clear on the website soon. The primary purpose of the website is to help people bounce back from being laid off. Given this is our primary mission, we don't do the following: - We don't charge companies a % of a candidate's salary. This feels dirty to us, and it's not in the candidate's best interest. - We don't prevent companies from discovering people who have been laid off. Profiles on the website will be visible to companies, much like LinkedIn. Since we're technical, we want to speak with you. Understand your background, technical expertise, and what you're looking to work on. We are focusing on a niche market and this allows us to focus our energy on actually speaking to each candidate in-depth about their technical experience; we'll be able to represent you and get you that interview quicker.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recruitment https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recruitment >Recruitment refers to the overall process of attracting, shortlisting, selecting and appointing suitable candidates for jobs (either permanent or temporary) within an organization. It appears this is indeed what your organization is, based on your own words: "we'll be able to represent you and get you that interview quicker." Are you avoiding the recruitment buzzword, or are you truly something different? I'm having a hard time telling it apart.

  The reason for avoiding the usage of the word "recruiter" is certainly intentional. We don't feel like that term lends itself well to what we're trying to do honestly. We're not sure exactly what term best expresses this, but more on the lines of a concierge service. The business model is structured in a way that ensures we do what's best for both candidate and company. Please don't slap me for using an "X for Y" analogy, but we're CarMax for Hiring. We need to work on translating that into words. CarMax has fix prices and aims to ensure that your experience as a car buying isn't tainted with a feeling that you got ripped off. We want candidates to know we're on their side and are not motivated working against their best interest.
