Show HN: Coffee Meets Bagel for Recruiting

Initial thoughts: good name, "over coffee" strikes the right no-nonsense note of simplicity. But after signing up and seeing the confirmation "We are brewing up an opportunity for you right now", I still don't know what this does. Oh, I can guess what it does, but you need to let people know what they're signing up for on the landing page.

EDIT: The confirmation email reads as follows:

Welcome to Over Coffee!

We are percolating your profile through our filters. We will contact you with a slow drip of job listings once we have the grounds.

Thanks for signing up!

Better, but still doesn't tell me what I'm getting.

But I was a bit put off by the notion of meeting a recruiter over coffee (or lunch based on the photos?). The only person I'd meet for coffee would be a founder or employee.

I might not be the target demographic here but it just felt a bit invasive...which is part of the problem with recruiting to begin with.

I signed up and then realized I hadn't updated my LinkedIn profile in a long, long time. How much will this affect the results?

To be honest, I am quite a lowly foot-soldier in terms of work-experience and, therefore, not expecting too much. Just curious to see how this space develops.

Curious: is there a fee? I don't see any pricing!
