A very busy space. The true demand is that you have lots of passive talent signing up. These folks are highly valued, but it's not clear how you get passive seekers (who aren't interested in moving unless they get excited) to make a change.

I assumed people went into startups because conventional career ladders don't exist anymore. When was the last time you got a raise or promotion by staying with your company?
What do these calls-to-action mean? [hiring] [tech talent] I have no idea what either are going to do. Also, when I click on "tech talent", this is confusing: "What role are you looking for?

It sounds like you're trying to qualify me applying...but you're actually talking about which companies you may or may not refer to me. I understand you're trying t…
