Show HN: RemoteFriendly – A remote job board inspired by HN

202 pointsby 1xdevloperalmost 3 years ago
Hi HN,<p>I&#x27;ve designed the site based on what I wanted a couple of years ago when I had been looking for a remote job. It&#x27;s very early and any feedback is appreciated.<p>I&#x27;ve also used this opportunity to reduce some of that front-end framework fatigue by using just HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.<p>Edit: I&#x27;ll add location and salary filters as soon as I wake up tomorrow

Job boards need to focus on signals and data that matters.<p>- remote definition plus remote where? Not everyone is US based. Timezones may be important<p>- salary currency, benefits, rays, bonus, etc. Salary based on geo or wherever you are?<p>- tell me about culture without a team ping pong photo<p>- why is the company worth applying to, what&#x27;s the growth rate and funding, how long in business<p>- leadership info and views they share, this often leads to company policies. Have they built successful companies before?<p>- is this position urgent or just a casual fill when needed

Congrats! I launched a job board recently too [1] specifically for Anon Friendly jobs (jobs where you can work pseudonymously). We have similar domain names :D<p>One thing you might want to look into is adding Structured Data [2] for job postings. Doing so &quot;makes your job postings eligible to appear in a special user experience in Google Search results&quot;. It could help you reach more people.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;anonfriendly.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;anonfriendly.com</a><p>[2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developers.google.com&#x2F;search&#x2F;docs&#x2F;advanced&#x2F;structured-data&#x2F;job-posting" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developers.google.com&#x2F;search&#x2F;docs&#x2F;advanced&#x2F;structure...</a>

Personally I can&#x27;t wait until non-remote job boards start showing up. Most jobs I see advertised are remote or at least hybrid and list this as a headline benefit. But I want to go to an office and be around other people. I know I&#x27;m in the minority these days but I can&#x27;t be alone.

One very simple feature that most job boards seem to lack is to filter out companies; if, after checking out one position, someone decides they don&#x27;t want to work for a specific company, it makes little sense to still show them all the other positions.

Looks great, I love the minimalistic design!<p>Would it be possible to provide a filter which enables you to list jobs that do not have a physical location requirement? For instance, if I live in Sweden, how can I see which remote jobs I am eligible to apply for?

The salary ranges are very misleading, unfortunately. For example, posthog will only pay 120k gbp for a senior full stack in London, while they’ll pay 220k usd for the same role in Seattle. Ramp also doesn’t pay 200k+ for roles based in EU.

I think it&#x27;d be nice to have a way to sort&#x2F;filter by locations and also by salaries
summertime42almost 3 years ago
This is amazing. Thank you so much for making sure salary is listed!

It would be pretty cool to do some quantitative analysis of how remote friendly these company&#x27;s stacks actually are, ie. are they &quot;remote friendly&quot; or actually friendly to remote employees...

Really nice site. Works great on mobile.<p>Assuming the jobs are a json array, it would be cool to add a simple text filter box to the job list.

Does anyone of have a full list of the other ones [services] similar?<p>I love this, but want to make sure I&#x27;m not missing out on <i>all</i> the possibilities.<p>Great font, reminds me of musicForProgramming [1] featured recently.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;musicforprogramming.net&#x2F;sixtythree" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;musicforprogramming.net&#x2F;sixtythree</a>

I maintain a GitHub repo of companies that hire remote devs: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;nmajor25&#x2F;companies-hiring-remote-devs" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;nmajor25&#x2F;companies-hiring-remote-devs</a>.<p>Could give you some additional sources for your job board.

Love the aesthetics and the creativity. The right design for the right audience. Congratulation on your launch!

Echoing the other commenter, location filter would be a huge improvement.
Lordarminiusalmost 3 years ago
Great job. You might also want to add a filter for tech stack.

A good one for Germany, Austria and Switzerland: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;zuhausejobs.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;zuhausejobs.com</a>

I find it great, simple, quick and gives the most important info for me: salary range, region and company website. Keep it up!

What APIs &#x2F; sites are you scraping from?
solardevalmost 3 years ago
I love the manually curated categories and how fast it is.<p>Some feedback:<p>1) It&#x27;s hard to tell where the job postings are crawled from. Are they recent? Are they comprehensive? Are they fully remote? I can&#x27;t tell if it&#x27;s even real data or just some sample postings you put up to demo the UI. Some insight into your crawling methodology would help with trustworthiness.<p>2) There&#x27;s no easy way to distinguish the companies from one another, either in terms of their industry, their scale, their rankings, etc.<p>3) Lack of sorting&#x2F;filtering makes it hard to drill down beyond the basic category<p>It&#x27;s a great start though, and thanks for putting this together!

Site looks cool. Where do you source the jobs from?
lakomenalmost 3 years ago
Dev language filter would be desired as well
chazeonalmost 3 years ago
Probably need also an level filter, entry&#x2F;senior&#x2F;etc.
zkid18almost 3 years ago
looks nice, but sadly to see almost all position constraint on country &#x2F; region of residence. not everyone today has a privilege obtaining a legal status to work in US or EU.
athrowaway3zalmost 3 years ago
The salary difference between US and EU makes me cringe.
em-beealmost 3 years ago
full-time&#x2F;part-time values would be great, same with fully and partly remote

The CSS doesn&#x27;t load, looks like craigslist. No trust
