Applied. Got zero responses though. Would be nice to show on the website, how many potential companies out there it’s going to reach.

When did you apply? We have a couple of hundred companies using it now.

I applied the day it was posted. My only communications from the site are a few emails from the site itself asking if I'm still looking for a job.

It appears to be entirely useless if you're not in one of the hot spots so I've turned off notifications.

Thanks for letting us know. I had a look at your profile to see what the issue was. I think in your case that the biggest issue is location. Currently most of the roles are for people who either live in or are willing to move to one of the major tech cities.

We do have some companies that are hiring for remote employees, but currently the supply/demand is imbalanced there.

Sorry that it didn't work better for you.

Seattle is a major Tech hub with a ton of talented engineers so I’m really surprised.

It doesn't work for me either. I had only one contact from your site. I'm in the Bay Area and response from Hired from local companies is an order of magnitude better than from Work@startup. Dunno why.

I've also gotten 0 responses unfortunately :(
