The short version

Hiring shouldn't feel like a lottery.

  1. 01

    Pick a role

    See the salary, the questions you'll be asked, how many places are left and when you'll hear back — before you apply.

  2. 02

    Answer like yourself

    Record a short answer to each question, or write it if you'd rather not be on camera. You get the questions in advance, so take a breath.

  3. 03

    Get a real answer

    Employers commit to a reply date. Every update tells you whether a person sent it or the system did.

No résumé requiredBring one if you like. Your answers, portfolio and experience can speak for themselves.
Your TPS posts stay yoursNothing from your social profile is attached. You choose exactly what each employer sees.
Promises on the recordEach company's on-time reply rate is public — the same idea as Bulletin, applied to hiring.
Small pools, real attentionThirty is a number a team can actually watch. When a role is full, it's full.
See the personEmployers meet you through your answers and work, and — if you share it — your Unfiltered Résumé.
Verified employers onlyRecruiters verify through a work email or a moderator, so you know who's on the other side.
