Conor O'Neill of Argalon Solutions has followed up on an earlier converation we had regarding the disintermedation of jobs listings for Irish startups.
The job-seekers have no easy way to identify which start-ups are looking for people whilst start-ups like ourselves find the cost of advertising nationally on a regular basis prohibitive.As Conor points out there could be an issue with building up enough momentum but I feel that Feed Grazers like OPod and Taskable, which allow us to nibble at feeds without subscribing, will greatly help. If any other startup has positions to 'advertise' or would like to be added to my startups Reading List please email me or comment here.Our comment to James was that we found the costs too high and the results to be mediocre in using both Monster.ie and The Irish Examiner. The cost of The Irish Times was unacceptable and we figure there is not much difference between Monster, IrishJobs and RecruitIreland apart from cost.
The reality is that the services offered by the online job sites are simply overkill for companies such as ourselves. All we want is somewhere to post basic job descriptions and receive CVs in return for a minimal fee.
