Sorry for the lag. I just fixed 2 bugs (table and store hydration) that should massively improve it if you would like to try again. Thanks.

I guess it increases your shots if the company is actively hiring. I can't speak to others, but that is actually how I and some of my friends land remote jobs, just by cold applying. And you get more chance if you apply early as soon a

What are you thinking to compare WLB? Like a WLB score that folks can vote on? One challenge is that WLB is more team specific than company specific as it can vary from team to team.

Yes, different companies define levels differently. Microsoft's principal and Linkedin's staff can be a senior in another company, hence why I include the yoe as it says more about the requirements. Also, Microsoft's salary i

Thanks for your kind words! I haven't offered any public feed/api yet. Your project looks very cool. Will look more into it and circle back if I open up integration.

I would say yes and no. A key goal of the job board is to allow candidates to see which companies are hiring and which positions are open. This is the most important thing to start with. What strategy a person use to apply would vary. An ex

Thanks for you kind words! Some remote companies such as Atlassian, Affirm, Dropbox have different pay zones to offset the cost of living in various places. For example, in Atlassian https://www.atlassian.com/company/ca

Thanks for sharing the industry insights! Very cool to learn about CPC job distribution, etc. I have also read the LinkedIn vs. hiQ Labs lawsuit. The ruling is significant because the court finds that scraping public data did not violate th

The goal of the companies and recruiters is to fill open positions with qualified candidate asap, hence why some would even pay job boards to promote their jobs or offer referral bonus. So my take is that companies would love job boards lik

Thanks for the feedback. I was deciding between SWE and dev and went with SWE after consulting with ChatGPT as SWE fits the job setting better > SWE (Software Engineer) vs. Dev (Developer) > SWE: Typically more formal; often implies e

I am not too familiar with Europe, but a remote job usually ties to a specific country, likely due to tax or some regulations. Another reason is that different country in the same continent has different cost of living and salary band, etc.

Yes, browser can do search and is one of the reason I haven't prioritized it yet. But it is next on the roadmap, because adding a search bar can do more, such as only show jobs that match the keyword, and it makes the UI/UX better

This is a great question! I think it is something that the platform can potentially address in the future via community inputs, e.g. people can report they have submitted to this position but never heard back within a week/few weeks. T

Very nice, love it! I didn't use any gpt or llm btw. I had a nice regex system set up to parse location and salary reliably in a few ms.

Agree, I will work on sanding down some rough edges next. Might not even need LLMs as a simple regex would do the trick

Thanks so much for noting this! This is a big miss with the current filtering logic. I will get it fix next. This is my fault as I notice most positions in reddit are remote so I falsely assume that it is a remote company. They are hybrid i

+1 to this! I have tons of fun while building this job board and having to refactor my code multiple times to generalize a pattern that can pull jobs from various sites. It is so fun to dig into some readings on the trimodal nature of tech

Did you join Airbnb before its IPO perhaps? I suppose pre-IPO companies usually offer higher base since their equities can't be liquidated until post-IPO.
