I feel like I see one of those remote job boards every week on HN.
There must be more job boards than jobs at this point.

> I’m not sure how deel handles this situation with employees in countries with stricter worker protections. Do they require the company to pay severance, do they include that in their fees? We hired engineers in Mexico through Deel and were required to provide the mandatory severance up front (I forgot the exact amount but I think it was like 3 months salary?). That money sat in an escrow account until we let go of…
That sounds like lawsuits waiting to happen for Deel and/or their customers. Either people are employees of Deel or they are your employees, Deel can't have their cake and eat it, too.
Definitely seems to be based on a strictly literal reading of the law that might not hold up under scrutiny.
If someone is acting as a de facto employee of a company, I don’t see the “employer of record” fiction holding up.

#63> I hope it's useful! It is, thanks! Are you taking submissions? Sourcegraph hires anywhere. All-remote: https://handbook.sourcegraph.com/company-info-and-process/re... Team bios with locations: https://handbook.sourcegraph.com/team/
Just a heads up, on my iPhone, when I scroll to the All Remote heading and stop (on your first link), I get a wild flicker as the page tries to scroll back and forth rapidly. Just thought I’d let you know.

#64Seeing a lot of gateway timeouts. Are you folks aware of this?
sorry about that! Site was getting a lot of traffic. Issue is fixed now!

#65How does "payment in USD" work, if I am not from the US? If the exchange value drops, I cannot pay rent? Everyone should probably get the employer to offer a currency-hedged payment, the fee is not that high.
You open up a US dollar denominated bank account in Switzerland and keep dollars as dollars.

#66Couldn't find a quick form to submit a new suggestion but PostHog (posthog.com) is fully remote and hires anywhere.

> I remember job ads telling Colorado residents they need not apply, but if you emailed them I bet it would have been fine. Dunno about that. I am currently employed in a remote role at a huge company. I can move anywhere I want in the USA, except Colorado.
What specifically about Colorado is the issue? If you're already employed, I'm not sure why the law would apply to you?
If nobody in the company is working in Colorado, they can probably more easily justify excluding Colorado residents, and thus not have to conform to the salary posting requirements.

#68A candle in the darkness thank you. A suggestion: I would randomize the list in order to not bloat the top n inbox.
Another suggestion is to use the "tech"/skills or programming languages as a filter. Really helpful, and also understandable that majority of jobs would require the popular programming languages/tools.

wheres the line between a job board and an aggregator? As far as I can tell this just links through to the actual job postings, which may or may not be compliant. It will be an interesting transition period. I remember job ads telling Colorado residents they need not apply, but if you emailed them I bet it would have been fine.
> (3) If no wage scale or salary range exists, the employer must provide the minimum wage or salary expectation set by the employer prior to posting the position, making a position transfer, or making the promotion. https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=49.58.110 Since aggregators aren't "job postings", I am guessing at least for WA, the website is compliant, but if you click through to the job postings, then…
To play devil's advocate,
Should residents of states where the linked job posting is non-conformant assume that the job posting is not targeted at them, otherwise the job poster would have complied?
After all, the job listing said nothing about Washington state.
Re: Companies hiring remote software engineers anywhere in the world
#70It would be great if they could publish their salary bands. If you are advertising jobs to Washington State residents, by law, need to publish salary bands. This seems to be not compliant with our law.
This is going to start showing up in job ads: "This job is not available for people in the State of California, Washington or New York"
It's becoming more common to see footnotes in adverts like that in general.
As an example, Discogs.com [0] explictly states the states where you can remote from. "This is a remote position. Open to candidates located in OR, WA, CA, CO, ID, AZ, TX, IL"
