Nicksergeant created JobsByReferral.com, a tool to find jobs at companies where you have LinkedIn connections, addressing a perceived gap in LinkedIn's search functionality. The site uses the JSearch API, which incurs costs, prompting him to consider monetization. Discussion in the Hacker News comments revealed that LinkedIn actually *does* have a buried "In your network" filter in the "Classic Search" view. Users also raised concerns about privacy, particularly uploading personal data. Nicksergeant clarified that the tool primarily operates client-side, limiting data transfer, and emphasized users can review and obfuscate data before uploading. He added a privacy policy to address concerns. Other suggestions included features for recommending past colleagues and discussions around the broader implications of AI enabling quick solutions compared to larger companies' processes. Some users cited data security risks regarding personal information.
