"Only current employees at the bay areas top tech companies are invited to look at our positions. "<p>So unless the HN readership is largely made up of employees of Google and Apple, why exactly should they care? There seems to be an implied equivalence of "works at big company" with "is a high quality engineer", which is a little dubious when you include companies like IBM and Adobe.Any startup that restricts recruiting efforts to "big companies" must be really <i>really</i> dumb. Why would good engineers want to work for them in the first place?<p>Adobe? IBM? Does anyone think focusing on these companies gives you a better chance of finding better engineers?<p>"The startups you'll find at LoftJobs are the next Googles and Facebooks "<p>Oh please. If you know that with any degree of confidence, you should be investing every dollar you can get your hands on in them vs asking people to fill your databases for free. The first thing to learn about talking to good engineers is to avoid easily dismantled exaggerations and keep it factual.<p>I'm sure calling yourself "The Ashley Madison of Job sites" inspires confidence in your target population ;)<p>I suspect really good engineers at the big companies in the Bay Area are fairly informed about the startup scene (or can ask friends who <i>are</i> plugged in) and can get a job in a startup of their choice fairly trivially without a middleman.<p>In any case, How do <i>we</i> know that loftjobs actually has some kind of exclusive job listings from these interesting startups that aren't available elsewhere? What makes your claims credible? Is this some kind of recruiter spam trying to get HN readers to do their work of populating their database for them?
