Link: https://who-is-hiring.arxpoetica.com/listing/20083795 Hello all, I wanted a tool to query against and save job searches and hide irrelevant ones, so I built it. Thought I'd share. Built on the awesome SvelteJS (https://svelte.dev/) framework and equally awesome Sapper (https://sapper.svelte.dev/) deploy platform. The app pulls posts from user `whoishiring` (https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=whoishiring) on Hacker News, and provides useful tools for sorting and saving settings / filters to localStorage.

I noticed the who's hiring threads are very popular every month, so I decided to create a job board specifically for hacker news. You can tag jobs, search, view user's profiles and more. Tell me what you guys thing! Any feedback is appreciated.

Hey HN, I built a UI on top of the "Who is hiring" posts. Take a look at https://hnwork.app! One of the downsides of unstructured text posts is the readability due to it being free-form and having little to no format. While there are other tools that have been built over the years to make perusing Who is hiring posts easier, I took a try on making my own (I actually tried to build this at a YC hackathon a few years back, but got around to completing it recently). Features: 1. Text search and search filters 2. Original post text with call outs to important information 3. Removes…

There are existing HN job aggregators, but I thought we could take it a step further. Inspired by an insightful comment on a previous thread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36163021), I built a tool that aggregates job postings and intelligently categorizes them based on user-specific preferences: * Country and remote work preferences * Employer type (e.g., startup, corporation, government) * Industry * Technologies used * Role type (developer, architect, product owner, etc.) * Salary range (where available) One of the superpowers of LLMs is reformatting information from…

Hello HN Community! I've transformed the "Ask HN: Who's hiring? (November 2023)" post into a Google Sheet. Here's a quick rundown of the method: I utilized the Hacker News Algolia Search API to extract data. You can find the specific thread URL here: https://hn.algolia.com/api/v1/search_by_date?tags=comment,st... Using a GET request, I fetched comments from the thread and processed them via the ChatGPT API. Employing the ChatGPT API for each comment, I parsed crucial job details such as company, position, location, and more. This information was structured and…

I built a email newsletter that sends you personalized and no-bs job picks from Hacker News' most recent "Who is hiring?" thread. Free forever, instant unsubscribe. To those interested in the architecture, I wrote a small post: https://hnrecap.news/architecture

Hi HN, I built hireindex.xyz – a searchable website that aggregates and indexes candidates from the "Who Wants to Be Hired" threads on Hacker News. Coming soon: Analytics to highlight trends in skills, technologies, and candidate preferences across HN posts. With HireIndex, you can: Search by tech stack. Quickly scan bios, salary expectations, and contact links. Filter by remote/on-site preferences and employment type. I made this because I was tired of scrolling through long threads and wanted a better way to find interesting people. Would love your feedback – especially around UX and…

Hey HN! I'm excited to show off this side project I've been working on. This project matches your resume with the best matching jobs from the monthly HN Who's Hiring post. It works by creating a vector embedding of your resume using OpenAI's embedding API, and then ranking the jobs using a vector similarity score. (You can toggle between max inner product, cosine, and euclidean in the "Advanced Options") I was laid off in August and it took a whole 6 months for me to find my new job. Fortunately, I found my new role on January's HN Who's Hiring post. So I hope this will prove useful to any…

I vibe-coded a small project that turns the “Ask HN: Who is hiring?” thread into searchable job data using OpenAI, PostgreSQL, and Metabase. It pulls the thread using the Hacker News API, uses GPT to extract fields like company, role, location, salary, and contact, stores everything in PostgreSQL, and spins up Metabase so you can explore and search the results. Right now it runs locally, but would anyone be interested if I built this out a bit more and made a public dashboard?

Hi all, I made this tool to sift through all the who's hiring posts. You'll need node / npm, but it works locally. It includes 2019 data. In the future, I hope to include all who's hiring posts with better graphs to visualize it. You can download it and play with it from here: https://github.com/vishaldpatel/jobstats And if you do, I'd love feedback! Including code feedback. There's some stuff that I haven't followed. Thank you! - V

Hi HN! A few days ago I saw a graph[0] that showed the # of job postings on HN was declining. I started wondering what other trends I could glean from the data, so I created this! You can filter through the top level comments by keyword; for example you can filter by "remote" to see the massive spike around March 2020. Another interesting thing I found is that I can compare hiring across cities. I hope you enjoy! I made it so that the links to your search are sharable so if you have some interesting data you should be able to just link the page you're on! [0]…

Hello everyone! I know there are already a few "Who Is Hiring" aggregators, but I wanted to show off what I've done. My project was cancelled right before Christmas, so this project was a great way to blow off some steam while procrastinating looking for a new job. Tangentially, I am looking for new career opportunities if your company needs a full stack web developer, lol. This website was completed in about a week and a half. I wanted to present it in a Show HN post on Jan 2 when the usual Who Is Hiring posts were featured, but I didn't think it had enough features to make it useful. Even…

Hi fellow job seekers! In a few hours this month's "Ask HN: Who is hiring?" thread will be posted. I've created a simple bookmarklet that removes jobs from the cities you are not interested in. You can find the bookmarklet & instructions here: https://github.com/janhancic/hnHiringFilter I hope somebody will find it helpful.

(not sure why my previous post didn't appear on Show HN even though I included it in the title, mods please remove if not allowed) Ever applied for a job and never heard back? Many companies just go silent instead of sending rejection emails, leaving you guessing whether to keep waiting or move on. I faced this frustration during my own internship search, especially when there was no real point of contact (automated replies don't count, lol). So, I built didtheyghost.me, a simple open-source tool that crowdsources job application responses. This isn't a job scraper or another job board. It's…
