That's a good answer, but I want to give you a little candid feedback.
I think you are doing a good job addressing the pain points of a company, but i'm not sure there is much value here for a developer.
You are basically offering the developer speed, which is meaningful.
In my opinion, there is a false assumption that makes your value statement less relevant. I'm not sure that the majority of developers would take an interview with a company based on the fact that they were "a perfect match" by a third party.
Most developers are not interested in interviewing for a company where they do not have a direct connection (which is what LinkedIn is trying to capitalize on)
Something to think on. Again, if I were a company I would be quite interested in your model.
Best of luck.
- Mawilliams1215 12y agoGlad you brought this up! We do have a value prop with developers in that we take the search and direct applicant process out of job opportunities in addition to making the process easier. Since we match developers with companies based on their profile, we are filtering out opportunities and then presenting them with ones that are best suited for their skills. In this way we essentially cut through the clutter of jobs that they might not be a good match for. At this point the developer can view the opportunities and the mutual interest mechanism is set in place if they are interested. They are immediately in front of the companies themselves and not just another direct applicant or introduction. We also help manage multiple job opportunities for developers so that they can view, manage,and evaluate their opportunities post match and interest. This is all visual and it is very easy for the developer to also know what requires something actionable to progress. Of course they can take advantage of our scheduling, video interviewing, and dashboard to eliminate as much friction as possible to the point of hire. Hopefully this helps provide clarity as to why a developer should signup for Codeity! -Mike
