Show HN: Hnwork.app – UI for Who is hiring posts

Hey HN, I built a UI on top of the "Who is hiring" posts. Take a look at https://hnwork.app!

One of the downsides of unstructured text posts is the readability due to it being free-form and having little to no format. While there are other tools that have been built over the years to make perusing Who is hiring posts easier, I took a try on making my own (I actually tried to build this at a YC hackathon a few years back, but got around to completing it recently).

Features: - Text search and search filters - Original post text with call outs to important information - Removes posts that aren’t on topic (complaints, seeking work, vague or missing contact info) - Analytics - API

In addition, job posters can create accounts to submit postings through the app. While I don’t expect posting to move over to this app, it’s what I envisioned what a Who is hiring thread would like as an app: - Structured postings with required fields (e.g., salary range required) - Job posters get notifications about comments on their posts - Job posters get verified through their email before posting (e.g., someone posting a Sony job has a Sony email address) - Companies with multiple job posters can coordinate postings and view past postings - Admins can audit and approve companies and posts

Job seekers can also create an account to post comments or get access to a simple API but otherwise browsing doesn’t require any kind of signup/signin.

I’m open to feedback: let me know if you’d like me to ingest more data from past months, something is missing or broken, or there’s a new feature you’d like to see. Thanks!
