Do you chalk it up to a failure of execution? Or was the core concept not viable?
I've always thought some kind of OkCupid approach to matching job seekers and employers would be very useful. GroupTalent seems to be doing something similar, but mostly focused on developers.
- Matt_Mickiewicz 13y agoThere's definitely believe there's room in the market to displace contingent recruiters, create efficiency, drive down costs, and create a much more pleasant experience for both sides of the transaction. One key with job seekers: there's a narrow window of opportunity to make matches. If you have quality talent, but you lack intent to switch jobs, nothing happens. Likewise, if you have a huge pool of talent - and only some of it is good - you create too much work for the employers to filter/sort, and they are better off just using LinkedIn/Entelo/TalentBin to play spray & pray game - also known as guess & check - at a lower cost.
