We’re seeing some very interesting trends already, will publish reports when we get some more data. We’ll definitely expand this to include all the different ways to slice and dice the data – hotness by geography, by industry, by job type, etc.

JobMob looks really cool, are you guys based in Israel? Just added it to my feed reader. :) Thanks for checking us out!

The crux is your hotness algorithm. At a glance, recruiter pageviews sounds like a logical factor to take into account but since the job seeker has no reason to promote their resume on eggsprout (that would defeat the purpose I mention above), I’m curious how you’ll manage this without skewing results.

Of course, the real test will be once you get beyond Seattle tech jobs and go national. If that happens, a very cool feature would be the ability to see how hot your resume would be in a specific part of the country.

@Linda: Thanks for the well wishes. We started Eggsprout because we saw the frustration of our friends as they were going about their dead end jobs and job search. It pains us to see all these layoffs. We think this is exactly the right time for a job site with a different perspective – one that can bring transparency with useful information into an industry that is desperately in need of it. We want to help.

I just don’t understand why another new job site launches in the middle of the largest unemployment rate in the country since the early 1980s. It doesn’t make sense.

I wish them well.
