Second time today we see reporting on SF tech startup woes (see SoundCloud as well).

In case it's helpful, http://www.layoff-aid.com is avaiiable for SF tech talent affected by downsizing in both cases.

What an epidemic.

Hired.com is pretty good too. I'm now happily working at a low-key company that I would've never heard about thanks to Hired.

Awesome. Haven't used them. Curious to hear how long it took you from signup to signing, and whether or not you were employed while you were searching.

It took me 14 days from the day my profile went 'live' to the day I signed an offer being unemployed. Most companies scheduled 2 phone screens with me before offering me an onsite interview. The first with a recruiter and the second was usually a technical phone interview. I consistently did 3-4 phone calls per day during the first week and usually 1 full-day onsite interview during the second week. If I had to use their jobs platform while employed, I'd probably quit first or use up vacation time.
