[geotargeting isn't live yet, but it's coming, btw] The idea of "putting jobs in front of candidates where they live online" is a fairly explicit pitch to HR managers & internal recruiters. HR folks are used to distinguishing between "active" and "passive" candidates. Active job seekers will, for example, apply to jobs at sites like Startuply and Craigslist (um in that order). Passive candidates - who are often the best - don't go job hunting, usually because they don't need to. JobSyndicate is for getting jobs to them without really changing their behavior; it's a premium service. For pitching around the office, I'd say that JS is kind of like an inverted job board. Employers post a job once, it syndicates everywhere, and they pay only for results. A pretty sweet startup CEO I spoke with also came up with the (very) unofficial elevator pitch analogy: it's like Adult Friend Finder for jobs.
