What is Craigs Lists career section doing differently from big job-listing boards?
We finally figured out just what we’re about, and it feels really good and it’s paying the bills. We provide a means for people to give each other a break, to help each other out. We’re trying to, in our own small way, restore the human voice to the Net. The Net has gotten a little too commercial and a little too slick. We provide a place just for people to talk to each other. I believe in it in a big way. How do you keep it from becoming commercial? We’ve turned down significant offers. One was to run banner ads. About a year ago we turned down a very significant offer and recently (turned down) buyout offers from three different job sites. Forrester Research found that recruiters think your site’s more effective than top job boards. Why? We’re a very effective job site. But we’re primarily a community site about the business of everyday living. How is Craig’s List doing financially? We’re profitable enough to pay a staff of 12 and put aside money for geographic expansion. Technically
