Zenefits 的 CEO Parker Conrad 在Quora 上收回了一份Offer
情况是这样的：
有个用户同时获得了两份 Offer，分别来自 Uber 以及企业级人力资源管理应用 Zenefits，他很难取舍，就在Quora（美国版知乎）上提问，还列出了自己对这两份工作的看法，包括正面和负面：对加入 Uber 他列出了3个正面理由和1个负面理由，对加入 Zenefits 他列出了6个正面理由和1个负面理由。
具体可以看这里：https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-best-way-to-start-my-career-Uber-or-Zenefits
Zenefits
Pros
Zenefits has a great team. I really enjoyed talking to the people. They are people I think I would be more happy to work with
I definitely think I can add more value to Zenefits. I have some great ideas that I will hopefully be able to pitch to upper management.
Upper management is accessible. I can speak to top people (CEO, CTO) which is really nice.
The job itself allows for more creative freedom, and with it more responsibility. However, it isn't as technically challenging. At Zenefits, I will be more of a developer than an engineer (thats what I think at-least).
Zenefits seems to be really aggressive in trying to keep me. They have tried really hard to make me choose them over Uber. And they are paying me a better salary by about 15k (where Uber completely refused to negotiate).
They also have an office in Canada, and they have promised to relocate me there if I don't get the H1B visa. When I asked Uber about this, I was told that it depends entirely on the performance review and manager (basically whether I am worth the trouble of relocating). Zenefits seems to be claiming that if I am an employee there, they will help me out and get my back.
Cons
My biggest problem with Zenefits is that it isn't a buzzword like Uber. Most people won't know what Zenefits is (or so I think). I think that this isn't as exciting a brand name to have on your resume when applying to the likes of Google.
I would really love to get some new perspectives into this. Thanks!
不幸的是Zenefits 的 CEO Parker Conrad 看到且回复了这个问题，同时收回了已经发出去的offer!
从 Quora 用户的投票来看，很多用户并不支持 Conrad 的这种行为。他的回答尽管获得了1200多个支持，但仍然排在非常后面。靠前的回答都对他提出了批评，排在第一的回答获得了1500个支持。
并且，很多人开始认为 Zenefits 并不是一个适合提问者工作的地方。我想现在这名用户也不需要再烦恼了，因为加入 Uber 已经成为了他唯一的选择。有意思的是，目前排名第二高的回答来自一名 Uber 员工，劝说这名匿名用户加入自己所在的公司。
智能招聘引擎Jobspotting获李嘉诚旗下维港种子投资
柏林公司 Jobspotting 从维港投资（Horizon Ventures）获得不公开的种子轮融资。Jobspotting 是一家做网站和 iOS 应用程序的公司，公司的主旨是根据第三方招聘网站和用户社会关系打造量身定做的搜索算法。
香港公司维港投资是由时常位列亚洲首富的李嘉诚先生创建的。一般情况下，维港的投资金额会更多，比如在 Slack 融资轮中投入 1.6 亿美元。Jobspotting 目前已获得来自柏林加速器 Axel Springer Plug And Play 和其他天使投资人的 50 万欧元投资。
Jobspotting 涵盖了超过 20 家招聘网站的工作职位，包括 Xing、Monster、StepStone、AngelList 和其他招聘网站。目前该公司涵盖的职位领域还只是局限于销售和计算机方面，但有计划扩大其职位涵盖领域。
Jobspotting 的主要竞争对手是上市公司 Indeed.com 和已经融资 280 万美元的英国公司Adzuna，以及在欧洲、美国和拉美国家运行的 Jobandtalent，Jobandtalent 已经获得 1870 万的融资。
随着彼得·蒂尔（Peter Thiel）投资柏林公司 Number26 和 EyeEm 的新闻传出，柏林这座城市似乎又恢复了当年的一丝风采。几年以前，所有的欧洲初创公司都密切注视着这座城市。
Berlin’s Jobspotting Gets Some Seed Love From Horizon Ventures
Berlin-based Jobspotting, a site and iOS app which aims to put a tailored search interface algorithm over third-party recruitment sites and your social connections, has raised an undisclosed round of seed funding from Horizon Ventures.
The Hong-Kong-based VC was founded by Li Ka-shing who is often listed as Asia’s richest man. Normally Horizons does bigger rounds, such as the $160 million round in Slack. Jobspotting previously raised a €500,000 seed round from Axel Springer Plug And Play and angel investors.
Jobspotting pulls in jobs from over 20 job boards, including Xing, Monster, StepStone, AngelList and others. Currently it’s limited to marketing and IT jobs but plans to expand.
Its main competitor is the publicly listed Indeed.com, Adzuna in the UK, which has had $2.8 million in funding, and Jobandtalent, which operates in Europe, the U.S. and Latin America, and has pulled in $18.7 million in funding.
Following the news of Peter Thiel’s investment in Number26 and EyeEm in Berlin, it would appear the city is regaining some of the mojo it had a couple of years ago when just about every startup in Europe was looking at it.
