Show HN: Curated Who's Hiring

There&#x27;s also <a href="http://hnhiring.me" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;hnhiring.me</a> which I wrote a couple of years ago. It&#x27;s a bit more flexible with filtering, but uncurated.<p>Incidentally, HN is up at the top of painful websites to scrape. All comments are at the same level of hierarchy, and the appearance of threading is accomplished by a spacer &lt;img&gt; with a width set according to the nesting depth. There are also no absolute times, and the times that are there slowly lose resolution. In order to get a comment time that&#x27;s accurate to the minute, you have to load the page twice an hour and store the post id to time mapping.

Just wanted to get it out there and see if it&#x27;s worth spending more time on.

I think this is great. Love the filters. It&#x27;d be nice if you could also filter by recently added. I&#x27;m currently looking for a job and it&#x27;s kind of a pain to have to scan through the whole list looking for one or two new jobs that have been posted.

Definitely spend more time on it - cause it&#x27;s a great idea. It&#x27;s really just some design nitpicks I have.<p>Everything&#x27;s full-screen and stretched so it seems like a ton of information thrown at you. Each posting has a top line, so you might be able to put that in a header bar of some sort, like an orange div that stretches across with an side and down arrow indicating nested or not - and maybe start out with all of them nested, that way users can really pick the ones they want easily instead of scrolling all the way through. A little more padding between jobs would be nice as well.<p>I like it though! Keep up the good work.

Bug report: Doing a Ctrl-F to find my technology or location of choice causes the job description to get scrolled down, so the top part isn&#x27;t visible (and therefore I can&#x27;t expand the whole description).<p>As an example, do a search for &quot;Python&quot; and you&#x27;ll see a desc with this sentence in it: &quot;We use Python&#x2F;Django, JavaScript (jQuery, AngularJS), ActionScript, MySQL (and some MongoDB), but you’d be free to choose your own tools and libraries.&quot;

Im visiting MS but live in Boston, would like to look for jobs there; Computer location wouldnt work for me. Would be nice to override that.

Could you resolve cities&#x2F;countries to continents? the use-case is quite simple: if you are open to working in all of Europe or all of Northern America, it would be great to search for &#x27;Europe&#x27; or &#x27;Northern America&#x27; etc.<p>This isn&#x27;t possible at the moment on the regular thread :&#x2F;

Yes. Thank you for a location filter. This is a fantastic use of the geolocation API.

I really love hnhiring.com if you could add regex support. and better support for filtering by location (detect variations of SF, san francisco, bay area, are one thing) that&#x27;d be awesome.

&quot;New&#x2F;changed since last month&quot; would have been a great filter.

Fantastic. Date of the post might be nice.

What stack did you use?
