This is very helpful. I am working on growing the site and getting it in front of as many technical people possible. This is just v1 to get feedback to make sure I am on the right track.

On the side note, posting is free so you can post today and see if you get any potential candidates.

Thanks a lot for doing this!

I have already pinged my co-founder to discuss this further.

Question: what prompted you to start this?

When we were expecting my first child, the doc asked us to get tested for Down Syndrome. I knew what was down syndrome, and didnt take the test as I cant imagine an abortion just because of that reason. I was blessed with a normal daughter, but that Down Syndrome stuck with me. Then I did more research and found that people with disabilities are discriminated against even though they are capable of doing those jobs. That fear that what if I had a kid with disability and she/he couldnt find a job made me build jobenabler.
Thank you so much for doing this, I deeply deeply appreciate it and hope it turns out great and helps many.
Thanks, this is really nice of you.
