Hi Pedro. What's it like to have such an iconic pornstache on your team (and product) proudy worn by your awesome head of Marketing @carrozo?

@joao_oliveira Many thanks. It's the kind of moustache that says, "sure, I've been naked on camera before, what of it?"

@pcbo @joao_oliveira there's a Medium post in here somewhere about iconic pornstaches and personal branding in the early 21st Century. Watch out @ev.

GAFAnomics Season 2

I'd be interested in seeing a sample profile - I think the biggest problem with LinkedIn is the strictures it places on professional experience. Are you guys giving technical job seekers a better way to present themselves, their skills, and their interests?

@eliservescent thanks for asking. We totally agree with what your saying and we believe that's the way to go. LinkedIn clearly is a very structured approach to your CV and it tends to be a experienced driven profile and not so much of an "achievements" driven one, which could be much more revealing! For now, being totally honest, we are a bit far from a professional network such as LinkedIn, hence all your information is private and confidential. No "public profile". Only when you apply to a job offer, is the company able to search your CV and LinkedIn, if you provide one. Also, we can leverage all your info to match make you with interesting offers. Something fairly recent but that we think could be really important to save you a lot of work! We have some major plans for opt-in public profiles in future; to start exploring more how we could help tech pros present themselves to an employer, and how all those amazing achievements that they tend to undervalue. How to present that in a visual and more appealing way instead of a restaurant buffet of job on job on job on... you get the picture. We're really a candidate-driven marketplace. So more than the profile itself, we aim to be your Hollywood Movie-star manager. Helping candidates understand the market and their pains. That's the vision! And we'll get there! Would love to pick your brains about this topic. Let me know if we can book a call.

Nicely done. I launched SpringRole a while back. Similar concept but more on the referral side with the recommendations. I noticed you ask for 1st degree connections through LinkedIn - what do you with the data?

@kar2905 thanks for the feedback! :) We actually started also on the referral side way back when Landing.jobs was JOBBOX.io but eventually it became more of bottleneck as it was preventing our users from landing their dream job (block on the road) We did use 1st degree connections in the past just to Auto Complete your friends' name and e-mail to make it easier to search for the person you wanted to refer. Nowadays is more of a legacy feature that we'll be killing in the near future given the newly found LinkedIn API restrictions. It is still something we really want to explore more in the future as the power of referrals is undoubtedly very interesting, but only when used properly.

@tiagomoreiras @kar2905 We came to the same conclusions and introduced direct application. LinkedIn is really dialing back on their API - what do you think about their new employee referrals tool?

@kar2905 Sounds really cool, being honest. Looking forward to explore it a bit more and understand how could we target something similar. We truly believe there's potential there, but for a very specific niche of "professional referrers" that could be doing that almost as a career and not as the occasional referrer without second agendas. Regardless of the method, referrals need to contain much more than a name, they need to have profiles associated (both from the candidate and the referrer), they need background checks, factual information, referral contacts. A professional referrer goes all the way to facilitate the work of the hiring manager, they are proto head hunters!

Finding a job online is a little broken--anyone in tech with a LinkedIn account can tell you tales of being spammed by mismatching recruiters. Landing.jobs seems like it has a good chance to fix the system.

Hey folks, this has been a lovely surreal day for all of us @ Landing.jobs! So proud to have made the grade with you guys and gals! As you may have seen above, we've done a couple of videos in the past few months you might also want to take a look at! Here's our brand video, called "Aim for more." when we relaunched as Landing.jobs (

) and here's a video pulled together when we did the #LandingFestival back in June this year, bringing together over 600 top tech pros with 30 top tech employers from all across Europe in a marina, on a sailboat, and yes, I launched the first grilled sardine into space. Because science. (

). Thanks again for all the love! :D

Maybe I am wrong but I haven't found a word about this on TechCrunch but you include an 'as seen on' part. This seems suspicious

I recently came across and started using Landing Jobs (thanks @Bo_irik) after struggling to find local quality tech talent in Amsterdam. I like that Landing Jobs schedules calls with you, not only to find out the skills of tech talent you are looking to hire, but also what sort of personal values and cultural fit you're looking for. They then screen applicants first and only pass on the ones that really match. That personal approach is what sets it apart for me and why I think they will be successful. We've only been sent 2 applicants so far - but both are quality and a good match culturally for our team. Keep up the good work guys!
