We're actually accepting a broader base of applicants than our site suggests, we're vetting every application manually, so if you've got some impressive stuff to show to us (and potential employers), go ahead and register.

Employers & education history are only rudimentary filters for the time being, and only part of our vetting process.

How long does the vetting process usually take? (My profile has been waiting for approval for some time now and I haven't received an email saying I was accepted or rejected.)

Next auction is launching towards the end of September. If you send me an email -- matt@sitename I'm happy to have a closer look at your profile.

Why not limit your search geographically? Start in the Valley only, then expand. It seems like this is the natural way to rate-limit.
