Makes sense. The "Flying cars" were not used literally in the post though but rather as a way of expressing the more interesting things we can build.

Looking for a new role has been harder than ever, at least for me personally. I've been looking for a year now and noticed that a large number of companies advertise roles which weren't meant for hiring and this manifests as non responsiveness, repetitiveness of the ad etc.

I've spent a lot of time reading ads, applying to ads, writing cover letters and customizing my application and I can confidently say that over 40% of these went into ghost jobs. I find existing tools either indifferent or too noisy and hence thought of coming up with a collaborative and to the point simple website to track these ghost jobs and help every tech job seeker focus on what matters.

It's really basic but if people find it useful we can always make it better!

Yes. Heavy curation and high quality content and journalism, from humans to humans.

What does responsibility mean? How does it translate to actual work and skills?

That's the best thing I've read in months if not years.

Recruiting is hard. Global recruiting is really hard.
