New website dutchstartupjobs.com helps startups find talent

There's no money in Dutch startups, very little investment.

So with some very rare exceptions, most startups pay way less than traditional IT, and you can shout all you want about only wanting young an hungry talent willing to work for equity (also quite relative, very few Dutch startups flip or go IPO), this is seriously hampering their potential for attracting talent.

Especially in a country that may be less risk-averse than most European countries, but still way more than the US.

For instance, one mistake a lot of startups make is offering Dutch people shares while their productivity wont be higher. Giving them a higher salary or more freedom on where and when they work motivates them much more and is often enough reason to leave a big boring corp.

It's true that there is less money here then in SV but it doesn't mean there are no jobs. But most of these job postings won't be on a site like the above. I even think the problem here is more on the supply side and not demand. I can name a few startups that are looking for talent right now, including us, willing to pay a great salary but simple can't find the right talent. Take a look at the type of open positions, cto, technical co founder, developer intern etc. I think that's the biggest problem we have to solve here first...

Some IT jobs posted in other places just omit the location, assuming everyone lives in SF. Really looking forward to find out what's going on in my homeland.

And the failure just dumps the MySQL error on the front page.

Not terribly inspiring.
