Show HN: My startup - a job board for South African hackers, no recruiters (techboard.co.za)
3 points by helium on May 6, 2011 | hide | past | favorite | 4 comments


I wrote this site because

a) The job board sites in SA suck

b) The IT industry is completely overrun by recruiters, even though almost everyone hates them.

I was inspired by sites like the 37signals job board, stackoverflow careers and coderstack. I worked on it off and on for about three months and did all the design and development myself.

It's written in Rails 3 and hosted on Heroku.


See if you can partner up with Peter Flynn's http://www.professionl.com/ (SA based) to get more job listings.


Nice UI, and it would be better with search/tags ability.
