So with @jcdb95 we've made 2 apps for students in 2 public universities here in Argentina. Main features aim to help students navigate their university life and simplify career tracking.
We've got more than 14000 users between both apps but monetization is hard being a public university so we decided to try making a job board. In short, users have a jobs & courses section in the app and now we built a web form where companies and individuals can pay to advertise their job searches and courses.
If you're curious and would like to check it out (it's in Spanish though), it's live @ https://www.avisos.maseducacion.com.ar
We're reaching out to local companies, talent acquisition professionals and those that give courses related to skills students learn or need to learn in their respective careers.
Up ahead we plan on adding more universities, making an admin panel where companies can track their posts and see some analytics and then also making it available via web for the general public, not only students.
Got any job board related tips that could help us? Let us know in the comments!
In poland there is a popular movement of "only for junior devs" job boards - like https://www.juniorjobsonly.com/ . Maybe this could be good target?
It's easy to make them popular, since soon-graduating students will be very actively looking for jobs.
In Poland companies are willing to pay nice money even for offers for junior devs.
