It's great on the applicant side, too. I got my last job from AngelList, and they have gotten me the best-quality leads (apart from referrals from friends) this time around as well. The profile has most of the relevant information for job-seekers that you would never get from an intro from a recruiter (investors, total investment, etc).
Salaries are always negotiable, but seeing them up-front gives you a good idea of what the company is looking at paying.
- durga 12y agoYes, some of that company information is written with investors in mind, but AL allows you to share that with job candidates. Since that doesn't really contain super-sentitive info, it's almost a no-brainer to share with candidates (at least for us).
- johan_larson 12y agoIt would be nice to have a bit more transparency on salaries. Yes, they are negotiable, but only within narrow bands. And if you ask for anything outside of those bands, the result is often not a counteroffer, but dropping the discussion entirely. That makes it time-consuming to determine what the market rate for your skill-set actually is, particularly since the "no"s don't typically come with reasons attached.
