Long time lurker finally took the leap to share something with the community.
From a long time I wanted to build something and I had this idea about a job board but not just a simple aggregator or just a job board. Basically I don't like any of the existing websites for jobs and most of the job boards are just aggregators that you constantly get redirected to third party links not the best experience. I also don't have the best experience with recruiters been ghosted, conversation looping in meaningless question and so on.
And the current job market is kind of disheartening non existing entry level jobs pretty brutal stuff.
The idea of the platform is to an extent to be fully autonomous in terms of you as user not browsing jobs but you automatically get matched with opportunities. Also companies looking for talent will have the same ability to view the people who are best matches. One of the main aspects is to basically to get a really good starter conversation between the company and you looking for new opportunity at leats that is how I see it.
What is different from other jobs boards is that you have a matching algorithm that finds the best candidates/opportunities based on the preferences from both sides it is weighted calculation between some different categories like salary preference, region, technologies used, work type, etc. Both sides can see a full breakdown and a gap analysis what is missing what is matching. The platform also has something like pipeline that tracks the stages of the conversation for example once both side match and start the conversation.
It is still work in progress some of the text and messages needs to be cleared visuals, colour palette but I decided to share it and maybe get some good feedback.
It is also quite empty basically I have zero users so without some listings it will be hard but I didn't want to scrape anything. BTW if any company wants to try this I can setup some free listing quotas the platform can be tried.
I used golang, htmx, plain css and as less as javascript as possible. I also used a lot of different llms to help me build it, it started as a learning project to help me learn golang but honestly I don't think I would manage to build everything like there is so much more to a web platform that is covered in books/courses/YouTube there is pretty big gap of what you need to learn to build something like that.
Anyway I will appreciate every feedback as brutal as it is.
