Ask HN: Best Job Posting Site for Hiring

3 points| NoBSWebDesign | 17 years ago | reply

What is the best job posting site (e.g. CareerBuilder, Monster, Craigslist, etc.) for hiring a new developer? I'm thinking in terms of response rate and quality of applicants.

I know I read an article where some software company blogged on the subject with their results and metrics, but I cannot find that post to save my life. I thought it was either 37Signals or FogCreek.

Anyone have any insight?

http://jobs.stackoverflow.com/ What caught my attention was the fact that you (the potential employer) get a full refund if you're not satisfied with the responses you receive. Also jobs posted here apparently show up on JoelOnSoftware boards too.

have you heard of http://www.standoutjobs.com They help employers create online solutions to engage potential recruits. It's an innovative idea and may be a good fit.

There's a local (to me) startup called The Resumator that does a bunch of stuff related to hiring. It's mostly about dealing with CVs, but I think he supports automatic posting to a few sites.
