The Tech Ladies job board was re-designed from the ground up with a focus on diversity + inclusion. Candidates can easily find jobs that are "WFH-Friendly", "Early Stage," or have "Unicorn Potential," and companies can hire from our community of 50,000 women who work in engineering, product, design, and more!
@allisonveronica nope, wasn't me! I would never put a bad rating on any product. I know how hard it is to build and launch something. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help you out...
Nice refresh, @allisonveronica and team!
Love the "unicorn potential" tag. 😂 How do you determine which companies/job opportunities get that tag? I imagine they all want it.
@rrhoover Hi Ryan! For "Unicorn Potential" we look for companies that have a really ambitious mission, great traction and/or are working in exciting emerging tech. :)
@nishsticks Hi Nisha! So glad you like it. Yes the job board will always be 100% free for members of our community to browse/apply! People can join the community at www.hiretechladies.com/join

Loving the new fresh design, filters, and that job seekers have the ability to apply right from the job board. Kudos to the entire team!
I'm not even a job searching lady and I LOVE this job board. I keep up with the postings so that I can share them with my network of friends who are searching. Love that there are plenty of remote positions listed and this job board is the first place I recommend when people ask where they should post their new job opportunities to get diverse candidates. Well done!
Pros:
clean design, easy to search, diverse job opportunities
@nicole_henry Thank you for your kind words! Most of the companies that post prioritize their FT roles but we do have a section for Internships and have had Tech Ladies find internships on the board before.

@allisonveronica thank you for the response. I will definitely be adding this job board to my daily job search rounds.
@_jayfk We're a member-based community. If you're interested in posting, drop us a line at help@hiretechladies.com and we'll send along some credentials for you to view it!
@hiretechladies@allisonveronica Could you lay out why you decided to make this a member based project? I'd assume that an open board would drive more people to actually see the job listings on the site. No obligations, just curious.
@hiretechladies@_jayfk Sure! We started as a closed community for women and nonbinary people in tech and having the membership closed has enabled us to scale our growth in a smart and careful way, and to laser focus on the needs of our community. It's basically quality over quantity :)
Really cool product, and good job on the launch!
I do have a question about your description though. It says your board focuses on diversity + inclusion, but isn't that the opposite since your strictly limiting it to women only?
@georgewillaman
Hey George. Thanks for the question, it's cool to see a 15-year-old dev on here!
Why Do We Need This?
Women are drastically underrepresented in the tech field, and for the hundreds of thousands of us out here who are in tech, we focus on specific things about company culture when making a decision where to work. Some of these things: how family-friendly a place is, how focused on diversity and inclusion a place may be (so they will accept us), etc.
A really good book about the topic of how the tech industry became so biased against women is called "Brotopia" by Emily Chang. I recommend it!
Hopefully in the future we will have more parity and won't need this but we see that as being many many years off.

@allisonveronica Ok, thanks for the clarification.
Good luck with the product!
Such an exciting day! Have been following Tech Ladies for quite some time now and so impressed by the work that they're doing. This launch is just another testament to the awesome impact they are having on the industry.
Congrats, Allison and team! 🦄🚀🙌
