Would be interesting to know the success rate from these threads. Did anyone find work from the November Who wants to be hired?

I recently hired someone via this thread. Check it a couple times a month to see if I have a role that fits someone's interest.

I wonder the likelihood that someone who just landed a job will see your comment in this thread... :)

Well if they don't like the new job, they may be posting again.

Clearly not an ideal marketplace - I see lots of companies like GitLab doing repeat posts in who's hiring and this thread shows that there is a lot of waste in the system

Not necessarily, a lot of companies hire continuously,so perhaps they've already been very successful via this. Personally i've hired about a dozen developers/engineers via HN.
