I got tired of LinkedIn's job search burying relevant results under promoted posts and recruiter spam, so I built Jobanni. It's a straightforward job search engine. No promoted listings, no algorithmic tricks to make you click on things you didn't ask for.

You can filter by job keywords, workplace type (remote, hybrid, onsite) and location (city, state, country, ...). I'm using an LLM to parse the messy location strings in job postings into structured data, which has worked better than I expected. Geocoding is handled by a self-hosted Nominatim instance.

Right now I'm indexing about 350k jobs from Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby and Workable, so it skews toward tech and startups. Planning to add more sources soon.

It's early and I'm still improving the relevance, but I'd love feedback on whether the results feel more useful than what you're used to.

Really? Do you have a link to the blog post?

There is a trends page at https://hnhiring.com/trends

I only use regexes to extract info. Haven't tried LLMs but that could be useful

How do you use GPT to estimate salaries?

Hard to tell what the issue is without actually seeing the code.

If I had to guess what they did was:

  user = User.find_by(email: params[:emails])
  params[:emails].each { |email| send_recovery_email(user, email) }
Instead of:

  user = User.find_by(email: params[:emails])
  send_recovery_email(user, user.email) if user

Do we work for the same company?

Don't know if you're joking or not. But scrum does not help with anything

wow. I'm the creator of hnhiring.com. Interestingly enough yesterday I made some tweaks to the trends page because it was quite slow, now it's much faster.
