Clean, simple design and interface
From 2 comments
I really like the design! I run my own job board tailored for Go engineers but design was never my strong suit, so really good job. FWIW, I set up a twitter bot to tweet about…
Insanity on HNThis is cool, I like the simple interface. Pulling in jobs from usajobs.gov could help expand the results. Anything at a grade <= GS-7 is generally considered to be entry level…

Thanks for making this! It's really nice because you only have to go to one website as opposed to many. I think some folks might prefer this easy approach, but I personally…

Listings include senior roles requiring 10+ years experience
From 4 comments
The first job in the list right now is a manager position requiring 10+ years of experience! Perhaps some filtration based on some simple regex could help get rid of at least the…

berkayozturk on HNThe Apple Software Engineering Manager - Information Security position requires 10+ years industry experience. The bar for entry level positions seems quite high.

Too many internships, not useful for non-students
From 3 comments
Some quick feedback specific to the listings I got when I plugged in "Germany": almost everything I found is internships. You mention in a comment elsewhere that intern is the…
Cu3PO42 on HNI plugged in “software engineer” and mostly got back intern positions. I’m not sure that really counts as “entry-level”?
saagarjha on HNThat's a serious problem though. A lot of people looking for entry level developer jobs aren't kids in college. We need something that filters out all the internship stuff. I'm…

Site fails to load or shows blank page in some browsers
From 3 comments
I can't get your site to display. Once everything is loaded, all I get is a white page and the favicon.
BostonFern on HNAll I get is a blank screen and a bunch of errors in the console.

Ad blocker prompt and tracking concerns
From 2 comments
"To provide better results, please disable AdBlocker" How will that help provide better results?
kotrunga on HNThe website is full of tracking stuff (has both Tag Manager and Analytics) and has Google ads. So I am guessing what they mean is, we will not be able to know everything about…

Staffing-agency spam such as Revature listings
From 1 comment
IMO companies like Revature and similar should be filtered out. They're plague, they infest every job board out there with dozens of "jobs" but really all they're doing is…

Requests
Filtering by category, remote, visa sponsorship and internships
From 3 comments
Thank you for your feedback. Yes, we are working on adding more jobs for every country. And categories/ filtering should be ready in the next few weeks.
docoleman36 on HNThx this is, something I needed. Maybe add a proper filtering for VISA / relocation sponsorships? Keyword search for Visa doesn't seem to work as expected. Remote filtering seems…
lymitshn on HNYes, I understand. Categories/filtering is still in beta and should be released in a few weeks.

Could you please consider adding an RSS feed for the recent jobs? It's really popular for job seekers for staying updated on the various search sites. I'd love to add this site…

Sort by most recent and remove expired listings

Can you add the ability to sort by recent? In most cases in my experience jobs that have been sitting out there for more than 10 days are already filled and the company just…
geogra4 on HNResult shows "6d" (posted 6 days ago?). When I click on "Apply", it takes me to ZipRecruiter and says "Expired: over a month ago. Applications are no longer accepted."
