I am on the other end of this. As an employer, job boards are now essentially useless. Worst of all, we pay per profile engaged. In order for us to verify that the profile is even tangentially a match, we have to engage, but the new algorithms are only providing poor matches. It used to be that we would pay per posting and we could engage with every profile that responded AND every profile that matched our keywords, at no extra costs (this shit costs over $10k per year).

The market is ripe for a competitor that offers services equivalent to what we had nearly twenty years ago.

Every service is getting shittier with AI. They all suck. Hell, even autocorrect is worse.

Enshittification is a rot that ruins everything for everyone. Even the rich people trying richer will just end suffering from the total collapse of functioning society in the end.

Capitalism is a mental illness.

Why not skip those companies and put a listing on your own company website? I feel like a big source of the issue is companies outsourcing this kind of thing to other companies. You are going to need to do some work on your own at some point.

Our default is Dice, Indeed, Facebook. Twatter, Mastodon, and our website. We're too small and specialized for the website to work. If you know about us, chances are you know one of our people at which point it's an "in network" referral.

EDIT: To be fair, nothing but the job boards and referrals work. Facebook, Twatter, LinkedIn, etc, are a waste of time and money.
