nPost - startup jobs
I've been talking with Nathan Kaiser, CEO of nPost, lately. nPost started a few years ago as a portal on entrepreneurship, with regular interviews and events. They lately changed a little their scope, to be a portal on "entrepreneurship and startups", but what made me write about this is their new feature: a startup jobs board. Just to make clear the distinction, I asked Nathan what would make people search or publish jobs on nPost and not in the recent Krop or the mediatic Crunchboard. His reply tells everything:
I don't think they'll be extremely successfull with this, but I think that this will turn nPost bigger and better, and I guess that that was all they were aiming for. And they did it right - found a nieche that needed to be explored right.
See the board here and also some reviews.
We differ in that we only accept jobs from startups. Krop.com and CrunchBoard.com accept any jobs from any company; Mary Kay (cosmetics), IBM, MSFT, etc. These are obviously large successful companies, but it would be a stretch to consider them startups.
I firmly believe that startups require unique individuals to help them grow their business. They need people who are dynamic, flexible, driven, and have a bit of the entrepreneurial zeal.
By focusing on this unique sector, we hope to put those types of individuals in touch with career opportunities that are right for them.
I don't think they'll be extremely successfull with this, but I think that this will turn nPost bigger and better, and I guess that that was all they were aiming for. And they did it right - found a nieche that needed to be explored right.
