Is endvr supposed to be short for Endeavor? I pronounced it as End Over, then instantly converted it to Bend Over, which actually seems like an excellent name for a job-hunting site...

From the employer/recruiter side, I'm curious how your service differs from LinkedIn's own offerings for recruiters, and if you're worried about intruding on LinkedIn's turf, given that they derive the bulk of their revenue from recruiters.

That made us laugh! Hopefully none of our users feel like that. In fact, it's exactly the kind of experience we want to prevent.

We differ from LinkedIn's offering in some key areas: we use undisclosed salary potential/expectations to help scope realistic opportunities to people, and we manually moderate our content.

We'll also remove anything we don't consider a genuine opportunity (whilst being fair and open).

Our mission is to bring the best people and best employers together, and we think that takes an extra bit of special care.
