We're attempting to fix the way freelancers are recruited at agencies / startups by changing the pricing model. At the moment with recruiters, the incentive is to place as many people as quickly as possible as you get a commission for each placement.
By changing the model to a subscription you can then open the market place up and make it very transparent. No more hiding peoples contact details from the employee, no more hiding the employers name from the job seeker.
We're only in Melbourne, Australia at the moment but if we get interest, we'll try and increase our reach. If you are in Melbourne and you're a freelancer / agency / startup, we'd love to talk: http://www.dragonflylist.com http://www.dragonflylist.com
- bartonfink 14y agoRodeo - I'm currently planning a move down under (my wife just spooked me by wanting to push the timeframe up to next year instead of 2015). Mind if I reach out to you sometime to chat about the market there and whether what you're doing would make sense for someone in my position? I'd be much obliged.
- Rodeoclash 14y agoNo problem, you can reach out to me on my homepage; http://www.richardson.co.nz http://www.richardson.co.nz
- RileyJames 14y agoYou won't have any trouble getting a tech job here. Huge demand at the moment, not enough talent. Email riley@dragonflylist.com if you want to chat more.
- dools 14y agoHave you guys checked out recruitloop.com.au? They're on the same road: ie. changing the industry by changing the incentives (their's is an hourly pay model).
- RileyJames 14y agoYea we've seen recruitloop. Anyone attempting to solve recruitment problems is a friend of ours. We're primarily looking at the needs of freelancers in creative and digital industries at this point. Keen to meet the recruitloop team, we'll be in Sydney at the end of next month, do you know them?
- dools 14y agoHi, yes, sorry. They are good dudes give Michael a ring. You should drop into Fishburners anyway :)
