Ask HN: How should we reach out to all the people being laid off?

3 pointsby holistioover 2 years ago
We are working on a job platform [0] that is meant to alleviate some of the common pain points of how both searching for jobs and searching for workers is done nowadays.<p>I see that a lot of people are being laid off from various companies, actually I&#x27;m surprised that since we&#x27;ve started development the tide has changed and now it seems like finding people to register job seeker profiles should be easier.<p>What would you recommend - especially if you&#x27;re involved in one of the layoffs - how should we reach out to all the people looking for jobs in tech these days?<p>I&#x27;d like to do our best to not step over certain lines of privacy. I am confident our toolset could be of help to most of these people.<p>Thanks for your advice!<p>[0] - it is accessible at https:&#x2F;&#x2F;moonka.space, albeit in a limited form: we&#x27;ve just pushed our RC-1 version yesterday, the database is empty so far, which breaks the layout here and there and registrations are disabled until we test a few things

You&#x27;re talking to them. Honestly though, I don&#x27;t think your product&#x27;s audience is the problem. There are a lot of for-profit job boards on the internet, and in the middle of a recession&#x2F;hiring freeze, it&#x27;s doubtful many companies would spend much money on advertising open positions.<p>Good luck with your product, but I think you&#x27;re looking at things a bit oddly.

As a manager, I&#x27;m planning on reaching out and offering my sympathy, support and a letter of recommendation.
