This looks awesome!

I didn't have experience with either prior to this, so I just looked into them briefly and chose one.

What do you like in particular about the Quasar framework?

Thanks! Any resources you've found particularly helpful?

No, it's a private gitlab repo. Sorry. Happy to explain if you have questions on anything though.

haha. Nice!

This was the first thing I built with Vue. Found this Udemy course to be super helpful! Max does a great job teaching and Udemy runs their $10 promos all the time so it's not expensive either. Definitely worth it since there aren't that many comprehensive tutorials / articles out on Vue yet.

You definitely make a good point. On the one hand, everyone who goes to look for jobs would love to use one site and feel confident that they're seeing everything available. On the other, it creates a lot of repetitive listings.

I'm planning to add more value with additional resources for prospective PMs and ultimately I'd like to have unique listings as well. I think aggregating other sites will help build the audience at first though. Otherwise, no companies would bother to share unique listings on the site.

Curious to hear your thoughts though

Nice! The 3 main ways of getting jobs will be through APIs, RSS, and scraping, so I started out connecting to each type. Indeed and GoRemote API, Mind the Product's RSS, and scraping a few sites using Ruby & Nokogiri, which isn't actually in production yet.

Did you do the keyword filtering when you connected to the services (like pass a query to indeed) or parse the results after?

One of the challenges with Indeed is that there are so many results and it's hard to identify actual product jobs among the results. For example, Microsoft called their PM position "Program Manager", but if you search for program manager you get all kinds of other results that have nothing to do with tech or startups.

Appreciate the feedback. Yeah, it's a bit jarring. I might try executing the infinite scroll earlier so that it starts trying to load more before you reach the end.

Thanks!

Thanks for taking a look! It's definitely on my list of things I need to fix. Haven't decided what approach to take yet. At the very least I won't show locations that have no postings. A map is a potential option.

The challenge is when I pull from sites without robust apis that don't offer great location info. Some sites offer lat/lon but others might just say a city and some will even just say a region like "Greater New York City".

Thanks!
Re:Show HN: Product job board created with Vue.js on Wednesday November 22, 2017 @11:11PM (#15762667)
I appreciate it! Yeah, it's the first thing I've done in Vue, but I enjoyed learning it. Pretty cool framework.

Looking forward to add more!

Hah, not a growth hack from Indeed, but I appreciate you checking it out. Yeah, it's pretty basic right now. Just wanted to put it out there anyway and get some feedback as I continue to build it out.

Yeah, I struggled with Vuetify a bit too. It looks nice, but I think a lot of the props could use more explanation and examples. The guy behind it recently announced that he'll be working on it full-time though, so I think it'll just continue to get better. Vue's super easy though. I've really enjoyed working with it so far.
Re:Show HN: Product job board created with Vue.js on Wednesday November 22, 2017 @11:04PM (#15762644)
Yeah, it's Vuetify. This was the first time I've done anything in material design, so it took some getting used to.
Re:Show HN: Product job board created with Vue.js on Wednesday November 22, 2017 @11:02PM (#15762639)
Thanks! It's a work in progress
Re:Show HN: Team communication without all the effort on Tuesday July 18, 2017 @12:43PM (#14797983)
Thanks for checking it out!

I decided to focus on email since it's something everyone already uses and I didn't want to introduce yet another platform people have to check.

I'd like to add additional ways that people can be notified when a check-in has been sent out (for those that aren't great about email), but no plans for anything to deeply integrated with Slack. Monitoring real-time chat can be stressful and distracting, so I actually want to encourage people to move away from that for these kinds of updates.
