In the article
How I searched for a job, voff wrote a wonderful phrase:
Programmers are now in a special position, we can choose.
It's true. Programmers are searched everywhere, from Moscow and Kiev to Berlin and San Francisco. Another question - how can a programmer use this opportunity? Complete 17 interviews, “3-4 per day,” as the author of the article did - not everyone agrees on this extreme. Yes, and it is suitable only for those who are now out of work or have already announced their departure to the management. And good developers without work sit rarely.

Jinna, we want to do better.
How does the genie work. History of one user
Ivan P., Lead Developer. Works in a good company. Good salary and social package, good team. It seems to be all right, but I want something new. The project is fed up, technology is outdated, management is sluggish, the product is dull, the company is not growing. And there is no clearance ahead.
Looking for a new job? It's not so bad to announce this to colleagues or on LinkedIn. And what if there is anything super-interesting and there? Only spoil your prospects at the current location.
Ivan sends in search of suggestions Jinna. Genie's trick is anonymity. Ivan’s contacts will be seen only by those to whom he himself will open them.
The result is seven sentences, three of them are interesting. Two interviews, two job offers. Ivan found a new job - an interesting project, new colleagues and friends, new opportunities and goals, a nice bonus + $ 500 to the salary.
Minimum time and effort to search - Djinn has done his job. Ivan turns off the profile on Djinn, so that nothing is written.
Why are we doing genie
Many of yesterday’s developers and job seekers themselves are looking for people today. Like
tmikwid . And if candidates complain about “spam” from recruiters, loss of time, etc., then the employer is still worse - the deadline is approaching, the vacancy is not closed, and 80% of the time is spent on communication with candidates who are not ready to change jobs or suitable for qualifications and salary expectations.
The genie meta task is to increase the search efficiency for all participants in the process.
For a job seeker, the Djinn makes searching for offers a simple and risk-free occupation, which means a larger percentage of potential candidates will enter the market. For an employer, the opportunity to see only “hot” candidates who are truly ready to change jobs is valuable, which means each candidate will receive more attention and interesting proposals.

djinni.co . I will be glad to your feedback and comments.
PS: So that recruiters do not confuse Java and JavaScript on Jinn, they have karma, which is formed from the ratings of candidates. If the karma falls below zero, the recruiter is sent to recovery mode, for re-education.
