LinkUp.com only indexes jobs found on company websites - we go way out of our way to make sure our spiders never include jobs from job boards or staffing companies. We do this to make sure that all the jobs on our site are still open, that their aren't any duplicates, and that there aren't any scams on it.
It sounded easy to us when we started too, but being accurately able to directly link to a company's job is a far trickier business than it should be - not to mention being able to tell the job's title from its location from its description. If you'd like a sample, figure out how to parse CDW's career section - https://cdw.taleo.net/careersection/10200/jobsearch.ftl https://cdw.taleo.net/careersection/10200/jobsearch.ftl - which is actually one of the easier ones:)
- amorphid 15y agoI am sure you know this, but many jobs list on company career sites are not open. Many are quite old and dated.
