I agree with you. There are many problems with staffing agencies and this is one of them.

In most places $140K is about the ceiling. In NYC it's not. Plus finances pay bonuses. Furthermore, what does it mean to be good? If you're smarter than your interviewer or know mo…

Thank you for your feedback! My partner has exactly the same thoughts. The market is indeed extremely saturated and there's huge money in it. However, I haven't seen good websites …

Why do you want to move out of academia? Get a tenure and you'll be doing your research plus you'll secure a job for the rest of your life.

Will do. By the way, we all can help each other if we tell our employers about this site (yeah, I know I need it more than you). Yesterday a couple of direct employers signed so ho…

Gents, it's in the subject. We're a new site and to be honest, it is difficult to attract and satisfy both job seekers and recruiters. We'll do our best to attract direct employers…
