I worked in the job space for a while, and I would recommend shopping this around to sites like TheLadders, Indeed, SimplyHired, etc, who are all always looking for competitive features. If they could just buy something rather than build it in-house, I'm sure they would (speaking as someone who worked at a startup which got sold to Monster.com for 72.5 million).
- nonrecursive 17y agoSomething like this is what I have in mind, but I have no idea how to approach companies to shop my site around. Do you have any advice?
- timcederman 17y agoI would use LinkedIn, or if you email me I can put you in touch with a few folks who might be able to help. You'd also be surprised at the recipient lists behind the "contact us" forms on a lot of the major sites. e.g. http://www.indeed.com/jsp/contactus.jsp http://www.indeed.com/jsp/contactus.jsp
- nonrecursive 17y agoThank you - I'll send you an email shortly. One thing I'm wondering about is, should you email them with your price or ask them for an offer?
- rapind 17y agoWhy not just build your user base and work to make sure your feature set is competitive or better? They'll come to you eventually.
- timcederman 17y agoYou'd be surprised at the number of small-scale acquisitions that occur after a casual mention or demonstration of a site.
