"Is this job ad fake? Report it! or Recommend to a friend"<p>Why would I want to recommend a fake job to a friend? ;)

We have had such a platform in France for a few years already at <a href="http://fr.lolix.org/" rel="nofollow">http://fr.lolix.org/</a> :-).

Cool. In addition to being a job board, perhaps you could scrape the feeds of FOSS companies.<p>Mozilla- <a href="http://hire.jobvite.com/CompanyJobs/Xml.aspx?c=qpX9Vfwa" rel="nofollow">http://hire.jobvite.com/CompanyJobs/Xml.aspx?c=qpX9Vfwa</a><p>Khan Academy- <a href="http://hire.jobvite.com/CompanyJobs/Xml.aspx?k=JobListing&#38;c=qd69Vfw7" rel="nofollow">http://hire.jobvite.com/CompanyJobs/Xml.aspx?k=JobListing&#3...</a><p>Canonical- <a href="https://ch.tbe.taleo.net/CH03/ats/servlet/Rss?org=CANONICAL&#38;cws=1&#38;WebPage=SRCHR&#38;WebVersion=0&#38;_rss_version=2" rel="nofollow">https://ch.tbe.taleo.net/CH03/ats/servlet/Rss?org=CANONICAL&...</a>

At the tremendous risk of being downvoted, if the site were to list the FOSS jobs that don't pay, the number of listings would be enormous.

First I'd like to say I love the idea since I'm a huge FOSS guy. Also I think there is and will become an ever increasing demand for this niche. I'm assumng this is a show HN (could be wrong), so if its critiques you'd like I'd say the #1 problem is the design and visual layout, the generic bootstrap is nice for quickly throwing ideas together but for an actual project where you want traction for me its kind of too unprofessional looking. Otherwise, great job though, I think from an idea and functionality perspective this is awesome, and I would be interested in helping out if you would like it :)

Awesome work! I recently launched a niche job board platform and would be happy to give you a free account/site to allow you to focus on growing audience rather than features. I'd love to be able to support your efforts. Check it out at <a href="http://www.jobboard.io" rel="nofollow">http://www.jobboard.io</a>

Neat idea! Looking forward to your progress. Have you considered open hardware gigs as well?<p>Currently, I work for <a href="http://gun.io" rel="nofollow">http://gun.io</a> - we're trying to encourage FOSS community growth as well (FOSS/non profit postings are free), but trying to also include other code-related jobs

Great idea, but only two jobs so far. Lets hope they get more offers.

I think you should add a breadcrumb: when I click on any element on the left navigation list I'm kinda lost.<p>Otherwise, great idea and great execution!
