I’m sure that many of you use Craigslist to find job opportunities. As much as it can be a great resource for job seekers, I have to say that I find it weird that people looking for jobs and people looking for “casual encounters” are using the same website. There’s just something sketchy about Craigslist. That probably explains why many people are reluctant to use the site to find local service providers. Can you trust a plumber, tutor, masseuse, or pool guy if you find him or her on Craigslist. Maybe. But how will you know for sure? That’s where Thumbtack comes in. They’re a San Francisco based startup that is taking a page out of Angie’s List’s book (maybe they should have “list” in their name) by providing an online marketplace for local service providers, but they’re doing it for free. Free is great, but the real key feature on Thumbtack is the fact that they provide “twelve ways to verify the identity and reputation of every provider.” That way you don’t have to worry about your plumber getting his house calls and his casual encounters mixed up.
I could keep doing my best to describe Thumbtack to you, but I might as well let them do it through their 90 second elevator pitch on YouTube (e-mail readers click through to watch).
Now that you have an idea of what Thumbtack is all about, let’s talk about their jobs. They don’t have much posted on their Jobs page, but their co-founder Jonathan Swanson did send me a note about an unlisted position that they’re hiring for.
