This does nothing. I'll just start a business that mails letters to companies for you. Now, an APPLICATION FEE, that's interesting. Hmm.

- mccraveiro 9mo agoSo www.postgrid.com?
- jaredklewis 9mo agoWell, presumably your business charges something to mail out job applications to companies? Like an application fee, that charge incurs a cost to applicant which will do something (presumably reduce applicant volume).
- eightys3v3n 9mo agoPlus by making that fee optionally replaced with time spent writing the letter, people who don't have the finances to pay a whole bunch of application fees can still apply for as many jobs as they're willing to put in the time.
- postalcoder 9mo agoThis does nothing. I'll just start a business that lends money to job applicants. Apply now, pay later (ANPL).
- bloppe 9mo agoIf you continue to get mountains of slop applications after introducing an application fee, then at least you have a new revenue stream.
- postalcoder 9mo agoOn the company side, you have a new revenue stream. On the ANPL side, you have another product you can securitize. Revenue generation and risk transfer, a win-win!
- ghusto 9mo agoThe barrier of entry has gone up from nearly nothing to signing up (and presumably paying for) your service. This is a significant increase, which will simnifically decrease BS applications.
