I'm still blown away that Key Values (as cool an idea as it is) manages to pull that kind of revenue. One thing I'd be curious to see is if the site actually can maintain revenue past year one?
- dannyw 7y agoRecruiting really, really pays.
- batt4good 7y agoSo surely Key Values takes a share of recruiting fees, not just a fee to list on their platform? Idk, it seems like this site wouldn't help cut down on candidates that are completely not qualified to work at a given company, which to me seems like a much more daunting hiring challenge for small companies / startups.
- Pete-Codes 7y agoTheir whole business model is not taking a cut AFAIK. If you listen to the indie hackers podcast that will help explain why :) Imagine if you run a company and have to pay $30k to a recruiter to find someone. And then imagine paying a fraction of that to post all your jobs on Key Values.
- st1ck 7y agoIdea is really nice, but with such unpolished execution, I'm surprised there is so much revenue. RE the execution: - filters work unintuitively: selecting more filters often increases number of matches - some filters are very fuzzy, and don't even have detailed description: "Creative + Innovative", "Committed to Personal Growth" or "Bonded by Love for Product" - you can't negate the filters: e.g. you can select "EQ > IQ", but you can't choose "IQ > EQ", or any value which goes against progressive viewpoint.
