The user-auth is confusing as there is no sign-in button. It was very unclear what to do as a first-time user. This concept is dope. Then the app wouldn't let me see the Req until I uploaded my CV and answer questions. I would prefer it to start the user onboarding directly after sign-up. I just think it would be a better UX experience.

You right, this is confusing especially from mobile browser. I'll fix it

How do u really manage to dudup the same posting in a reliable way? I feel like it's really annoying to sort things out from various sources even though from the job board. What's more valuable maybe the internal source? Idk

My engineering experience, Claude, the right guardrails, and not being afraid to vibe-code. Plus a lot of observability and alerts, and a lot of feedback from users. Honestly, things break all the time, but they get fixed fast, and the system keeps evolving and growing

I love the approach and the filters. Very well done. I will also try the MCP.

what i notice is that many job descriptions are marked as open even if they are actually closed.
Also, apparently, there is a but if confusion with Europe/UK (probably dued to the fact that UK people has not decided yet what to do)
Did you have to get agreements from the employers or their platforms to permit crawling these? Many companies forbid this in legal terms on their sites, or through robots.txt or Cloudflare challenges, etc.
