Since a few weeks I'm (re-)building FreshRemote.Work as some kind of fast + lean "remote job search engine". The goal is to make it as simple as possible while simultaneously give as much info about a job and/or company. All of course without any nonsense, bloat etc.

Some highlights:

- LOTS of remote jobs every day

- all jobs come directly from company ATS (so they're REALLY fresh)

- all jobs have a salary listed (no "guesstimates"!)

- UI is super-simple, fast, informative and works also well on mobile

- comprehensive tagging + search

Note: it's still kind of a prototype but lots of features and improvements are in the making for the upcoming weeks :)

Missing anything? Feedback's welcome!

Cheers Pat

Great to hear! It's the usual suspects like greenhouse, lever, workable, successfactors, ashbyhq, recruitee, pinpoint, personio, adp, talentlyft, and many more...

ah, interesting - similar approach it seems...

It's all plain RSS feeds from a variety of over 180 sources atm. no Twitter input whatsoever (at least right now). Trends are basically determined by item views (popularity on the site itself)...

Btw. if you know a great blog, pod, YT or news publication in general that covers a decent amount of AI/ML-related stuff and has an RSS feed (see https://allainews.com/sources.md for sources already included to avoid dupes) - pls put it in the comments :)

Hey fellow hackers,

As demand for skilled people in the Information Security field is growing and higher than ever, there doesn't seem to be a lot of sites that cater to this crowd exclusively. So I thought it would be great and helpful to fill this gap.

Hope it helps anyone interested in finding a job or hiring talent in this space, and also help newcomers to get a sense of what the market offers/demands or which roles require what qualifications/skillset etc.

What's your feedback, ideas, thoughts, insights?

pat-jay··on Ask HN: With StackOverflow Jobs closing soon, what are some good alternatives?
Regarding finding solid jobs there might be some alternatives in certain niches, increasing the signal-to-noise ratio if you're looking for a job (or talent) in one of these, for example:

https://ai-jobs.net - for positions in the AI/ML/Data Science space

https://infosec-jobs.com - exclusively for Cyber Security/InfoSec folks

https://devops-jobs.net - a DevOps-only jobboard

https://freshremote.work - provides lots of remote vacancies in all kinds of areas (tech & non-tech)

pat-jay··on Super-simple news/podcast aggregator for all things remote work
Oh, that's fixed now. But thanks!
pat-jay··on Ask HN: Where to Search for Remote Jobs?
I think https://freshremote.work hasn't been mentioned here yet. It's a bit of a newer site, but covers all kinds of remote positions worldwide with a clean and fast interface. Also provides keyword, category and region filters to narrow down a job search.
pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
UPDATE: You now can set the radius (distance), moment (aka date from) and timeframe manually on the position page directly to improve your search without a user registration or being signed-in necessary anymore!

Have fun :)

pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
Usually, the IP stuff is used as a fallback to avoid the site to show nothing...

It seems like you're one of the unfortunate .1% where the geolocation stuff didn't work properly right away (or disabled in browser?). And we're working on that, thx :)

Ah, and in an emergency there's the third option: manual selection via the position page. With which you can also search around what's going in any other city you like - worldwide, or your own ;)

pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
Yes w/ a basic user account you can do that via the position page - but currently only up to 30km or ~20mi or something. Maybe we can increase the radius span a bit ;)
pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
Cool, thanks. Ah yes, the startpage is pretty dynamic as it mostly relies on the users position.

But hey, that might be an interesting idea: to be able to "share searches/discoveries", which is basically sharing the settings used at the moment, with others. Hmm... ;)

pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
Yeah, that's right. There are certain (unfortunately not so obvoius) methods that lead to a bit better results. Either through the categories (whereas most are "Universal" as in "uncategorized", that's subject to improvement too) or by choosing a smaller radius (the opposite might make sense in less dense areas) - that's when signed in with a basic user account.
pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
Yeah, thanks. Hmm, email might be got lost by your provider (junk folder?) - otherwise drop me a mail at service@etrigg.com for manual activation...
pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
What? Gosh, you never know what you'll find on FB :P Thanks for the hint - fixed!
pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
Awesome! Yes, we will :)
pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
Usually on the site should appear all the meetup events from meetup.com - but could be that you have more meetups in your area than even meetup provides ;)

It's also possible to register on our site and add own events - pretty fast and easy BTW.

pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
Might be a reason not to host stuff in Germany - so we consider moving to the US or CH ;) We're NOT (physically) located in DE, BTW ...but Hetzner seems to be awesome cheap for that kind of big, fat & fast machines they deliver B-)

cheers

pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
Mostly from other sites via APIs - could be that you're in some region (or have such position selected) where nothing's happening ;)
pat-jay··on Show HN: Yet another (faster) way to discover events nearby
Yepp, there's only FB API calls (though I'm not sure if it's optimal already the way I'm doing it :P ) and it seems as some are formatted well and some others aren't. Looking forward to fix that, too...
