Building a reverse job board for product people (design, managers, etc.): an ideal role board.
I see endless posts on LinkedIn and Twitter that go by the waste side because we're all too burnt out to care about companies hiring, plus we each have a finite number of people in our network. Or, I get hit up by recruiters for roles that I would never be interested in, or companies I know I would never work for (ahem Facebook).
Companies spend lots of time and money wasted on recruiting by contacting uninterested candidates, what if they could go right to a place to find people that want to do what the company needs? Also, recruiting is riddled with bias -- what if all you went by was what a person did, and what they wanted.
Isn't there a better way? I built an MVP site where product people can tell companies what they want to be doing --> https://myperfectjob.club/
I'd love any feedback y'all have, as well as if you would create your profiles on here.

How do I find these first 5-10 members?
I Got Shadow-Banned on Reddit So Many Times That I Built RedChecker
Great idea! The badges on the recently added users are easiest to skim while the rest blends a bit - would consider placing more emphasis on other things within the card such as title and years of experience.
Thank you! I do agree with you it's a bit noisy, so I'll try out a few different ways to show these off; thank you again so much! If you're in product, or want to, why not create a free profile?
Think it's a great idea, like the site too, how do you get the critical mass to make it compelling to both sides?
Thank you! I do think it's an interesting opportunity, but as you noted the chicken & egg issue. I'm trying to solve it early on by grassrooting it now (hitting up coworkers, networks I'm in, etc.). Need enough supply for recruiters/hiring folks to be interested in it.
Want to create a profile by any chance??
All done, you planning on adding some filters? I don't see location on any profiles?
Yeah, I have logic set to start to show some of these when there is a certain amount of profiles published. I had location hidden but added it back in as an optional field for candidates to put on there if they want to =)
Thank you, you're published now!
