Wellfound/AngelList used to be a good place to find employment but has started feeling more and more like a graveyard. Companies on the platform are now updating their listings far less frequently so... See more

Not the greatest (sales roles)

Not the greatest, using for sales roles in tech.

Most companies aren’t responsive, and roles are quite limited. I can’t speak on behalf of other business units or what the market for those look like on here but unfortunately, this hasn’t been a tool that I’ve had any luck with. Using an optimized resume with 10 years experience in sales and having applied for 200+ jobs on this platform with personalized messages to the “hiring manager”, I’ve gotten two interviews both of which, went nowhere

I won’t say that Wellfound isn’t worth using, but it’s most definitely not worth spending an incredible amount of time using with your job search.

It was very great

It was very great, I am feeling very happy that I have used this platform. Here you will find the startup companies mostly and some mid sized companies as well. Have a look into those positions. You will really love that.

Thank you

Great place to find startup jobs

I've been hired for two full-time remote design roles from Wellfound postings, and I've had nothing but good experiences with the process and the companies listing there!

A really easy to navigate job site

A really easy to navigate career/jobs site with a great focus on smaller and growing companies. The search features are a little finicky (I will often be show.n remote jobs that don’t hire in my state/country) but the other features like easy applications and a great profile page make up for it

Fantastic Platform!!

I’ve gotten more job opportunities on this platform than LinkedIn or any other job platform. The web design of this site makes it easy to navigate various job opportunities.

Cool concept, needs more refinement.

I really like the concept but this time around I got zero contact from it.

I know that could have been more active from my side but as I got more contacts from other platforms, I was encoraged to that in the other platforms.

Maybe there is some way in which I could be incentived to contact the companies in the platform, other and just saying "contact them".

We are a small start-up and advertised a role with Wellfound. Very poor value for money when compared to LinkedIn and they auto-renew job adverts without warning or clear indication when posting. When complained, only a credit offered. Will never use again.

These guys are so so so non educated or what can I say...
Just a few months ago these guys blocked my account without any reason, no explanation...
But now, when they are switching to a new domain with new business they emailed me like this.
"No one knows change better than the startup community. That’s why today, there’s no one we’re more excited to share this news with than you.
After a decade building under the AngelList umbrella, AngelList Talent is officially branching out on its own, under a new name.
Welcome to Wellfound.
As Wellfound, we'll be doubling down on what we what we love to do most: helping the startup world find what’s next. Our friends over at AngelList Venture will continue on as AngelList.
You’ll start to see some updates over the coming weeks. But — it’s so much more than a name change. While you can still access angel.co until March 2023, check out wellfound.com to learn more about what’s ahead for us."
How on earth they could email me like this...
They banned me and now asking me to share their junk new business to my top fellows.
Where is the logic?

The Trustpilot Experience

Anyone can write a Trustpilot review. People who write reviews have ownership to edit or delete them at any time, and they’ll be displayed as long as an account is active.

Companies can ask for reviews via automatic invitations. Labeled Verified, they’re about genuine experiences.

We use dedicated people and clever technology to safeguard our platform. Find out how we combat fake reviews.

Here are 8 tips for writing great reviews.

Verification can help ensure real people are writing the reviews you read on Trustpilot.

Offering incentives for reviews or asking for them selectively can bias the TrustScore, which goes against our guidelines.
