Exactly. I live in a HCOL area (not SV, not US). Local salaries are very competitive with SV and I need to know that the salary offered for that remote position makes sense compared to a local job.
But companies get cagey when asked directly and usually says something like “we don’t discuss comp before you take our code challenge/first round of interviews”
Well I’m not sinking 5–10h into your process only to find out you’re offering 1/3 of what I can make working 5 minutes away from home, wasting everyone’s time.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm thinking of ways to implement this, as getting the salary data for each listing is probably the hardest thing to do at the moment. This was just the mvp and 'll be adding more features soon!
I think you need to combine the data from these boards with levels.fyi or Glassdoor for salary data. Also if you are employed in FAANGMULA companies, you need to be aware that the compensation from your remote board jobs or unknown startups will mostly never reach your current take home .
I understand that. I’m not asking for these jobs and small startups to match FAANG level pay. I just want transparency. There’s a big difference between $50k and $150k and both are still well below FAANG pay. Just be upfront is what I’m saying.
Thanks for the feedback. I'll look into that. Do you think it would add value even if the Salary info is "industry average" from glassdoor? Or would that just be sort of false advertising, if you catch my drift?
Maybe it is the HN Traffic, but I just tried a couple of keyword searches and the site just hangs. It just shows the spinner for minutes on end. I turned off all ad-blockers in case that was the problem, but no dice.
In case it helps the devs, there is this error I see in devtools console: GET https://devslistjules.uk.r.appspot.com/api/jobs?limit=10 net::ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR

Thanks, I'll have a look at that asap and see if i can pin point the issue.
Same. Think it just got snowballed
Can't find anything. Think that might be the case.
Applying for some jobs sends you to other remote job aggregators. Are the listings scraped from other remote listing sites?
The listings are pulled from the other sites via rss feeds, or API's. We currently have 5 different sources that we are fetching jobs from. A cron job fetches the jobs every 4 hours.
If you can create a job board that has pay listed upfront and prominently (nothing cagey like a massive range), then not only would I sign up for the service, I would pay for it. Somewhere in the neighborhood of $10-$20 a month.
