We don’t believe spending countless hours searching different job boards is the best use of your time if you are looking for a job. A survey we commissioned with Kelton Research earlier this year indicated that many jobseekers are spending 50+ hours per month scouring job boards, corporate sites, niche sites, and on and on.

TheLadders is a good service, but it offers only a very small percentage of the $100K+ job out there. Most subscribers know this and also search CareerBuilder, Monster, Indeed, etc. in addition to TheLadders. Or they give up from the frustration of it — and they end up not knowing about jobs that might be a good fit for them.

With RiseSmart, you don’t have to wonder if there’s a relevant job out there that you just couldn’t find. That’s our value proposition; we encourage you to try out the service for 3 days and see for yourself.

Thanks again for your question.

I think the model is a bit suspect.

It’s not clear value the job seeker gets from paying the monthly subs and you need to sign up with a credit card before you get results. Granted you do not charge you for 3 days so you can cancel but it would be good to get more details and some sample results to see the value added.

Theladders is different in that we are you are paying to search their proprietary database of verified 100K jobs. In your case the majority of jobs are publicly accesible via Indeed, Careerbuilder, etc. etc.

So can you elaborate on the value added for job seekers and show some sample results pls.
