It would be extremely useful to be able to filter per country, as not all remote opportunities are available in all countries, but I guess a feature like this would have to involve data submission from the companies themselves.

On our (shameless plug) job boards, we structured the sites around countries and you also have mandatory salary brackets (provided by the companies)

We also require them to provide full tech stacks, benefits and info how mature they are in Software Engineering (what kind of tests they write, what methodologies they use, etc.)

Feel free to take a look:

- UK: https://devitjobs.uk

- US: https://devitjobs.us

- Switzerland: https://swissdevjobs.ch

- Germany: https://germantechjobs.de

Also, we recently launched with our partners: https://devjob.ro in Romania and https://devitjobs.nl in Netherlands.

Confronting to see someone came up with the same idea for a map-based approach to job-search ...

I wasn't nearly that far, so good learning opportunity to see how you built it...

Do you have a working prototype or not yet?
That link should work, but it’s a redirect so it takes a second reload sometimes.
FYI Your link doesn't work with www subdomain before it (Redirects on root)
Thanks for pointing out.

I always liked your product. You put a lot more thought into it than most.
Thanks!

Feature requests are always welcome, BTW.

Neat idea structuring the boards around countries with mandatory salary brackets. I haven't seen a job board use a map like you have, reminds me of Airbnb etc - makes a lot of sense!
Thanks!

Your site also works very well, particularly the very simple but slick design!

Thanks! Lots to do but it's getting there!
This is the actual problem we are trying to solve with Remote Leaf[1](shameless plug). There are tons of remote job openings posted every day on the internet and job seekers do not need to scroll through these long feeds instead we filter them by country and skills and send it to their email. At this point, we manually curate the jobs and tag them to provide good quality service for job seekers.

Yep, I agree. You can currently filter jobs by location and time zone (https://himalayas.app/jobs) but we haven't extended the functionality to our company search yet. We will based on your feedback :)
Regarding time zones: it seems if a company will accept any time zone, the site lists them all? Saying "any" or "all" would be much clearer.
Yes...that does make a lot more sense. :)

I'll talk to the team and add your feedback to Linear.

I think it would be helpful to search by time zone so that I can see teams that work no more than x hours away from my home time zone.
