We are taking a different tack — we are putting up a job board that only accepts direct-posts from employers. All job posts are moderated prior to publishing in order to ensure this. We think this will provide a solid alternative to the current job boards that are totally swamped by recruiter ads that don’t name the company, don’t describe the work, and only contain checkbox skillsets on the ad.

The blog-based job ads are certainly a big improvement over the current state of affairs on the main job boards, but we also think that a straight job board that eliminates the middle-man will also serve the IT community well.

It’s too bad that it’s so hard for employers and job searches to efficiently connect. In both cases you’re overwhelmed by options, and the hit rate is so person you’re looking for gets lost in the noise. We resort to friends, our “network”, as a crude filter.

With JobCoin I’m not creating the magic bullet, I’m taking one small step towards improvement. Blogs are incredibly rich communities of people who are all connected around some common interests. By giving these communities a tool to connect with one another, all the sudden you find yourself surround by people like you. When it comes to hiring and finding jobs, that’s a great place to be.

They’re easy to spot however. They always call the main switchboard instead of my direct line, and my phone rings differently when transferred from the switchboard. Needless to say, I’ve started to not answer those rings.

I’ll admit that I’ve found numerous (though not all) of my jobs and consulting gigs through recruiters (including my current job). But there’s still way too many recruiters these days, and taken as a group they definitely gum up the job search process. As you mentioned, job boards like Monster are completely useless these days. I put my resume on it for less than 1 week, but had to take it down due to too many contacts from recruiters.

I think people are going to have to start to do a lot more recruiter-less (and big job board-less) job hunting from now on.

How are you doing? Long time!

VladM pointed me to your clip on businesspov, which led me here.
Planyp.us sounds really cool – good luck to you guys!

Drop me a line if you’re ever in the Seattle area.

I do not for one minute think that a recruiter has a right to violate your instructions for contact. It is truly their loss if they fail to read what you write on your profile. I agree that some recruiters can be a little too aggressive for their own good. However it is in the nature of the job to ask the difficult questions. For every technically sound and emotionally stable candidate out there going about their business, there are nine flakes on two legs trying to become the etitome of Peter’s Principle, and rise to the level of their own incompetence. Theri stock in trade is their ability to manipulate and tap dance, not in the skills the recruiter seeks on behald of their client.

Having said that, when a recruiter comes across a hard-working, technically savvy, dependable person, they are anxious to establish a line of communication. You are the type of person they want for their client. You don’t have to extend the effort of actually initiating the selection process. You are good enough to have earned the title of Passive Candidate.

Yes, recruiters can be a pain in the posterior, but try to look at it like a right of passage that you have earned. Let them do the work for you,

Good Luck.
