Pearl - An SMS hiring network for the startup world

byβ€’
For too long, early stage startups have been a walled garden, so we decided to build a door. πŸšͺ
(1) Over text message, tell us what you're looking for
(2) We'll monitor for matching jobs
(3) We'll connect you with the founding team when there's a match

Stoked about Pearl! I know a lot of recruiters looking to make their candidate funnel suck a little less, and this looks like the solution!

@drew_glicker1 Hurray for sucking less!

Congrats on the launch! How are you figuring out "the perfect match" given how subjective the whole process of recruiting is from both sides? And how are you working on the supply side so that you have enough jobs to offer different types of people who sign up? Thanks!
Tim Connors
@nilay_modi Your resume info and career preferences are matched algorithmically against the jobs we have. When a match is found, it's reviewed by a human before it gets sent out to you, at which point we'll ask "hey is this interesting to you?" Your answer to that question informs our future recommendations. In terms of the supply of jobs, we're partnered with a few job boards and other aggregates to pull in opportunities + we have a network of founders who are looking to hire through us!

I’d imagine Pearl would make it much easier to passively recruit while working full time. Great job on the launch Tim!!
