As a candidate, the problems I've faced on AL are:<p>- often not enough info in the job postings I come across<p>- it's too easy to apply (this makes my application one in a hundred)<p>- my applications stay pending for days (or weeks sometimes)<p>As a hiring manager:<p>- far too much noise. Candidates who are completely unqualified, not in the locations I'm hiring in, or too junior apply<p>- not great if I'm hiring for fractional, freelance/part-time, or contract roles (doing more of this now)<p>- copy/paste (cover letter) applications<p>- no way to get senior talent to consider applying (for all the problems outlined above)<p>What is good:<p>- salary/equity info<p>- free (unless you're sourcing)<p>- quick to get started
