Tackling face applicants using pricing

Our guest on today's episode of the Inside Job Boards and Recruitment Marketplaces Podcast is Mark Chaffey, the cofounder and CEO of UK-based hackajob. Hackajob matches candidates with tech jobs in the UK, USA, and India. Candidates do not apply to jobs but, instead, the employer applies to the candidates. The employer describes the role, the AI lists matches, the employer requests interviews, and the candidates choose whether to accept them. When they do, the employer pays. In today's episode, our cohosts, Peter M. Zollman of AIM Group (Marketplaces / Classifieds) and Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter job search site discuss with Mark why, as Cory Kapner of Recruitics says, some friction in the hiring process is a good thing and charging candidates a nominal fee to apply to a job, as Alexander Chukovski of crypto-careers.com suggested on LinkedIn, is a good idea but not without its own problems.
