Why did you pick this idea? I mean what's so different about yours compared to other job boards or even job apps like jobr?

I can reply you. I do not know whether their product will be any different, what I know for sure is Jobr sucks. I was researching all startups working on recruiting in bay area, and tried Jobr personally. The jobs there are few, low-quality, simply-matched with user's profile. After I deleted my profile and account, I kept receiving emails showing interests in referring me to be a Uber driver, which is impossible considering my visa status.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Great and I concur your idea about replacing recruiters, they cost more and aren't very efficient. I am open to dialogue about this idea.

Glad you replied. My email is in my HN profile. Just shoot me an email, and let's talk.

my co founder just emailed you.

We decided to work on this idea because we wanted to introduce the convenient factor in the job application process. This is different because not only are we creating a match system but we are accelerating the actually hiring process with PRIB, We figured why not have one websites rather than have two or more outlets to achieve those steps individually. Jobr is basically tinder for jobs and really does not convene enough jobs.

Hi, I replied this idea with my thoughts: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11441183 Basically I believe the solution you are proposing here is the cure. And I also believe this is something we can use to replace and unemploy recruiters. BTW, I have applied for YC fellowship this batch and was rejected. So...Let me know if you're interested in working together or just talk.

Hi, I am Andrew the other founder of Jobinder. Let us know if you have any question!
