Introduction

When sending out your resume during job hunting, you can waste a lot of time if you use the wrong job boards. It feels great to send them on Indeed, Glassdoor, SimplyHired, and LinkedIn Jobs but is it?

These are just a few of the giant job aggregators that might lose quality over quantity while recruiters from all around the world add their job offers there are tons of candidates so the moment you apply, you can already be too late.

Let's present a few interesting niche job boards you can use to get your next interview with cool companies.

1. Otta

    I always go with Wellfound because I’ve seen many credible startups there.

    I’ve explored over 20 websites, but Wellfound is the only place I turn to whenever I need to look for opportunities.

    Their discover dashboard is just too great, because you could find all the growing startups at one place.

      Haven't got that much results from here, guessing it's based on the fact that I'm from Nigeria

        I don't think that's the case. Even I applied to a bunch of positions early in my career and received very few replies. You need a bit of experience because startups are high quality.

        If you really believe you're the right fit for the role, reach out to the founder and tell them about your interest. I did that once and they made me eligible directly for the second round.

        But I'm not an expert, so I can't say much more. I hope this helps!

      Is it a valid one? Did you find a job through it? The design is a little bit "old-fashioned" but looks like there are some nice recent remote jobs posted there (even 1 day ago)

    I heard Cord is extremely spammy. Has it changed?

    • Adrian | Founder of BigDevSoon
      Adrian | Founder of BigDevSoonAug 22, 2024

      Spammy? TBH I applied for a few jobs there and had nice follow-up each time through their Messages system but otherwise, I haven't noticed anything weird/"spammy" there.

    One of the job boards worth checking out as well is echojobs.io/, however, they're not FREE but their jobs look quite solid with salary, remote, and skills filters it should be easy to drill down the results but not 100% if it's worth it.

      @bigsondev looks real nice, if they can guarantee jobs for the African talents, might just be worth it for me

    I was persuaded to buy cryptocurrency by someone I met online. They have access to a group of analysts who provide reliable predictions for the rise and fall of BTC. I initially attempted with a modest amount just to be sure, and I was successful in withdrawing money twice. This demonstrated a growth in the signals I was receiving. I decided to include corporate funds as well. When I tried to contact the individual at that point, he had banned all of his connections, which is when everything started to go wrong. I tried everything until a professional hacker directed me to DECODE ACCESS RECOVERY, A company that helps individuals and businesses recover their stolen BTC assets. They truly helped me to recover everything at an affordable fee and I was elated.

    Please stay focus, most of these so called hackers here are Basterd, Now i know how good hackers work, they never advertise themselves in such a credulous manner and they are always discrete. I have been ripped off so many times so from experience I know so much on how they work...Eventually my zeal to solve my issue paid off when a friend of mine
    introduced me to this guy, his professionalism is top class.I am sharing this piece of info for those who genuinely want the service of a Good hacker...contact her Via Greyeax[at]gmail Dot com,hhe is fast and reliable...
