Cyrpto had some interesting takes on these sort of problems that we haven't really applied more broadly.
The way I'd design a job board is require the applicant to escrow X and the job poster to escrow Y*X. Y is is the trust ratio. Given a bad experience, either the side can 'burn' the other and send both escrowed amounts to charity. An okay trust ratio might be 10, meaning they'll give you 10:1 burn ratio. A good one might be 100 or 1000. At that point they are essentially handing you a big stick to beat them with if they misbehave.
This would entirely eliminate spam and ghost jobs - suddenly everyone would be magically really responsive and polite.

- siliconc0w 7mo agoThe company's incentive is they get strong talent without the expensive of recruiters, they have a way to signal they're serious about hiring and aren't going to waste people's time. A rejected candidate may burn the company but it requires burning their own stake as well so the incentive is really only there if they feel they've been significantly mistreated.
