This is a pretty cool idea, so I signed up and eventually got...
'report will be ready shortly'
Would be great to have a lot more context on what this means.

Right now since this is still in beta its pretty manual process but here is roughly what will happen:
- We review how you describe your ideal role and make sure we have enough information to know what kinds of companies to reach out to
- We create a blinded version of your resume (remove you contact information so no recruiters contact you directly)
- We search for companies/jobs that match your preferences and reach out to them to ask them to provide an estimate
- You'll have a google doc shared with you with estimates from different companies. This will be updated in real time as we get estimates
- You can decide to use your report just to better understand your market rate, use it to ask for a raise with your current boss, or connect with any of the companies that provided an estimate you would be interested in working for
Hope that helps! Feel free to reach out to matt@tellmewhatimworth.com if you have any more questions/comments/etc
Especially, if people have interesting or unique work experience. Say they founded a startup or they are the author of a popular OS library. Even a niche product, finding the principal author is usually just a search away.
Only if your resume is super-mundane would it offer a modicum of privacy (and who wants to hire that?)
If it was more legit it wouldn’t require the sign up form it has.
That being said you are under no obligation to speak with any of the companies that provide you a salary estimate.
