It's a full-time job. Expecting 40-60 hours a week in the chair. I guess I should start with budget. Haven't thought about it yet.

Thank you!

It's a Remote Job Board for iOS https://apps.apple.com/us/app/remotely-job-search/id13495238...

"Remote job boards" are a dime a dozen on the web, but first of its kind in a mobile app.

The easy answer is to sell featured job postings, but my users are candidates and not employers.

Ask HN: I have 25k users. Now what?

I have an app in the App Store that has 25k users and growing quickly. Originally I built it as a passion project, but now I'm starting to think about monetization strategies. What are 25k users "worth" to advertisers?

Thanks! We’re passionate about remote work and believe this is just the beginning for virtual teams. We think collaboration software will be a key factor in enabling this growth.

Yes, we’re launching as iOS only to start. We do have a webpage (hiredremotely.com), but for now it is a landing page for the app.

Why do you say you’d, “be reluctant installing yet another app”?
