I wonder why all recruiters don't do this? It would really put them at the top of the line for a developer's attention, and with the market being so tight, you'd think we'd be seeing this.


Because they are stuck in their old ways. We're trying to shake things up.


Good recruiters start bidding wars or negotiate people to the top of what the market has for them, which is what this auction site is trying to do.

Bad recruiters go for churn: they try to fill positions regardless of fit or the candidate's long-term interests and capacity.
