Hey all, I recently created a job search site called coolstartupjobs; it shows the currently available jobs from startups, but also shows each company's history of job posts over time so you can see how much hiring they have done; this can be (though is not always) a useful signal in understanding how much a company is growing. Each company is assigned a rank based on its percentage growth in job posts in the past 30 days; for example, cowrywise (YC S18) is the #1 ranked company right now; they had 1 job opening last month but have 7 openings right now.
When I was looking for a job, I knew I wanted to join a startup, but I found it hard to figure out which startup would be a good one to join; there are many reasons to join a startup, but when part of your compensation is in stock options, you want those stock options to be worth something some day. I thought a source of information about startups for job seekers would have been really helpful, so i made coolstartupjobs to try and give job seekers more data.
Right now, I do only have job post history, but I'm looking to add more data as time goes on; I'm thinking of change in domain rank, various data from crawling news sites, and fundraising data, but I'd love to hear if anyone has other data they're interested in seeing.
Note, I do only have YC companies at the moment, but I'll definitely be adding more companies, especially if this strikes a chord with anyone.
Let me know if you have any questions, thanks all!
