I like the layout of the JamLegend page on Snaptalent. The job is something I'm interested in and Snaptalent seems to do a good job aggregating info about JamLegend.
One quick question though. What are the benefits to signing up? The sign up ad could be read as implying that signing up would be beneficial to me in applying to JamLegend. Are you offering any services, like resume review? Or is this page all that a logged in user would see, and account benefits are more general things like search access?
- sharpshoot 18y agoHave a read of our homepage: http://snaptalent.com/ http://snaptalent.com/ If you have any more questions email me directly: sumon [at] snaptalent [dot] com
- chris11 18y agoThanks for the response. I decided to sign up for an account. If anyone else was wondering what the Sign Up button does when logged in, the button turns into an I'm Interested button. This lets SnapTalent release your contact info, and since your resume and other info is in your profile, Snap Talent is saying that this an easier way to apply for a job.
- sharpshoot 18y agoActually your contact info remains private until both sides are interested. Then you get introduced directly to the company hiring.
- amohr 18y agoJust signed up! I'm really impressed with the service so far. As ALee put it, it's really refreshing to see a company that gets it. I've been having a hard time finding appropriately aimed job postings as a soon-to-be-recent-grad and you've given me hope.
- sharpshoot 18y agoHey amohr - email me on Sumon [at] Snaptalent [dot] com - would love to hear how we can make the service even better
- ALee 18y agoChris, I'm one of the founders of JamLegend, so feel free to e-mail me directly if you have any questions about JamLegend. We have been in News.YC for a while, so it holds a particular place in our hearts if people are referred from there. I've been very happy with SnapTalent because I think it authentically conveys our company and we've helped test parts of their system. Snaptalent is so refreshing because it's a company that finally gets it.
- chris11 18y agoThanks for the response. I'll probably be emailing you my resume and a few questions later this evening once I get my resume cleaned up a little. And thanks for offering to answer any questions I have. I find it a huge complement to know that I have direct access to a company's founders. One of the reasons I just signed up for SnapTalent, a company I have never heard of before, is getting a response from sharpshoot a few minutes after I asked a question. I have played around on your site a little bit after hearing about it on HN yesterday, but I really wouldn't say I have much of a relationship with your site after visiting it a few times. So one of my first experiences with JamLegend is finding out that you are willing to answer any questions I have, and that created a lot of good will toward your company.
- sarafsaurabh 18y agoI will mail you my resume too. Probably you could have a look at it if I fit in your summer intern profile
- amohr 18y agoSo your Snaptalent profile says it's 1-10 employees, and there's 4 positions for interns. That seems like a pretty high intern/fulltime ratio. Are you planning on filling all 4 of those?
- ALee 18y agoWe hope to, but the decision for us is not to bring in a warm body, but to have a high threshold and if someone clears it then then they join.
