Hey ProductHunt đź‘‹
This is Mike and I'm a maker from Italy 🇮🇹
Today I'm launching JobScout and another 10 software products I made in the last year, alone, bootstrapping, with no team and no CS degree.
See all the products here: https://rubini.link/ph
JobScout currently monitors job opportunities on Facebook and lets you filter them by fully remote or hybrid, and type of contract. You can then apply right on Facebook. You can also receive an email newsletter with new remote job opportunities.
We are just scratching the surface with this, and we will implement more and more sources to get hiring intents out of Facebook.

I know what you are thinking. *Why make yet another remote job board?*
I mean, the market is saturated at this point.
Here are some considerations on why I decided to make this product a reality:
# 1 - I keep seeing the same job posts
I feel everybody is either copying RemoteOk, or using its API. This results in 100s of job boards publicizing the same jobs, which then results in more applicants for the employer, but more competition for applicants.
With JobScout, I wanted to exploit a different source, Facebook, in order to get different kinds of jobs, which usually don’t get as much love and that you wouldn’t find on other remote job boards.
# 2 - I like cross-selling
I always look at opportunities to cross-sell my other products. In this case, JobScout is a side project that is owned and brought to you by Groouply.com, my Fb group monitoring tool. Everything aligns.
Thanks for reading 🙏

That's an awesome idea. So many job ads on Facebook that are hard to find.
A simple solution to sourcing them all and then only get into the groups/pages that are of interest.
