Ask HN: I added a job listings section on my blog. How can it be improved?

from the ask-hn dept.

Employers have been reaching out to pay me to put up job listings on my blog. So I decided to experiment with my my first paid job listing.

Can you give me feedback to make it better? How can I make it more engaging to developers? What information do you want to know about the job?

If you've had experience with adding job boards to your blog, what's a good way to automate everything? Right now I'm posting the listings manually and using PayPal for payments.

I use jobberbase, http://www.jobberbase.com/ , on a site http://jobsinireland.org/ it doesn't handle payments, but the verification of jobs is easy, as it sends the admin a link to approve the submitters first job. After that they can post again with out the check.

Looks good. Is it possible to integrate this with wordpress?

sure it's possible, but why would you want to integrate it in something else ? It's a stand alone software that can do most things that a jobsboard should do.

Has anyone used the white label job board by Simply Hired? http://www.jobamatic.com/jbb-static/home
