Good luck, but <i>man</i> was I hoping for a way to somehow help us manage recruiters, mark spammers, etc.

I kind of need exactly the opposite of this. I'm an engineer that's on the market again and being contacted by scores of companies, etc. I need a convenient way to manage all of them.

Someone mentioned it looks a lot like basecamphq.com. But you should rip off the most important thing they have done which is put sign up front and center.<p>1. Change the "See how it works" button to "Pricing and Signup" and link to your pricing page.<p>2. Make the entire graphic above the button clickable and also point to the pricing page.

Nice look and feel. I don't yet have the need, but I'd try it when I do. Your home page has an info-graphic and some advantages/benefits, you also have a how-it-works walk-through and you have a 4-page tour. Seems like overkill, but you probably know better than I do: 1. which of these is converting? 2. which are most prospects (not people like me who just wanted to look at the app) visiting and spending time on? 3. were any of these pages or sub-pages a direct response to customer requests (implicit or explicit)?<p>I'm not asking for a defense - I'm asking because the answers would really help us our with our own site!<p>Thanks.

Regarding the "How am I charged" information: just curious, why did you decide to go with that setup (an "piggy bank" that you fill and then are deducted from one day at a time at a set rate) instead of the more standard "We charge you $30 monthly at the beginning of the month" practice? Easier for you on your end? Or do you think the customer gains a benefit from it? Just curious (Note: I'm not someone who's thinking about buying this and held back by this practice, just a curious bystander).

Have you considered adding video profiles of applicants? There is a startup that Paul Graham interviewed that does exactly that. But I like your overall presentation more. Good luck!

Hi. I'm one of the creators of Recruiterbox, and pleasantly surprised to see that someone has posted about us us here. Will try my best to answer any questions/comments

Do you really have Levi in India signed up? If so that's awesome and congrats, and you should make that more prominent.

Great work. There's so much space available helping companies managing their incoming data. This is a great start.<p>Though I haven't been through a hiring process in awhile, I'm surprised though that this doesn't have some kind of referral bonus/source tracking feature built into it. Seems like it'd be novel and useful.

Nice work, and good luck. The recruiting market for software is a tough one.

We are using Jobvite for this which is way too expensive and a total pain in the ass.<p>If you are a rails app please make it so that the job page can be edited with Liquid. Also provide an API so that we could migrate.

Other than the home-page being nearly an exact clone of the basecamphq.com site, it appears to be a solid product.<p>Why no live demo of a fictional company?

Is there an option to pause a subscription? Companies will eventually fill all their positions and won't always need to use the service.

Looks pretty awesome, would love to see more screenshots though.

At first glance, this looks about 100x better than jobvite.
