Show HN: Looking for work is a full time job – So I created this tool

For anyone currently stuck in the grind of endlessly applying for jobs, I completely understand your frustration. I’ve been job hunting for the past four months, and it’s been painfully repetitive and time-consuming. Applying via LinkedIn often feels like throwing your resume into a sea of 1,000+ other applicants, even with daily alerts turned on.
What worked better for me was following founders, recruiters, VCs and other key connections. I’d wait for them to post about roles to their network and apply directly by sending them a DM. This strategy landed me a few interviews, more than going via traditional application portals.
To make this process less manual, I built a tracker that highlights posts from people sharing roles with their private networks. It’s 100% free, so feel free to check it out if you’re in the job market!

- octonaut 2y agoWill this let me filter for jobs in a specific region? For e.g. Europe or Australia?
- Dallas_B 2y agoNot at this stage sorry, only for US. It takes a fair bit of work to filter by country. Maybe if there is a little more demand.
- Mizu_048 2y agocreating fake comments huh? the reviews on the site seem fake and there are spelling mistakes hehe at the time of writing this, three different accounts have commented, all coincidentally made on feb 4 do correct me if i am wrong
- Dallas_B 2y agoYou are corrected. Who has the time to create fake accounts on this?! Traffic is too low and its a pretty lame thing to do, but believe what ever you want to.
- spacerangerrick 2y agoLooks good. Does it pull data from other sites besides LinkedIn?
- Dallas_B 2y agoThanks! Not in this version, but I'm building a version which incorporates social media feeds as well.
- relicle 2y agoThis is genius! Nice work
- Dallas_B 2y agoThanks! Please let me know if there is anything you want added
