A remote job board with a results guarantee
Remotive posts remote roles to a job board, a daily email and a large following, and guarantees two hundred clicks on the apply button or it runs the listing again for free. Postings are managed from an emailed link rather than an account, which removes the usual password. It is priced per job rather than per month, so a creator hiring one editor pays once.
Our note
The apply-click guarantee is what separates this from the free boards, and it is a promise about traffic rather than about quality. Write the description before pricing the post, because reach only helps a listing people want to answer.
Only on this side
Startup job posts, free to publish
Wellfound, which spent a decade as AngelList Talent, is where startups hire and where people who want to work at one look. Posting is free and unlimited, with a built-in applicant tracker, and the money is in promotion and sourcing. For a creator business hiring its first editor or assistant, the free half is usually the whole of what is needed.
Our note
The free tier is the whole product for most people here. Post the role, use the tracker, and only reach for a Job Ad if two weeks pass without the right applicants.
