Wellfound (formerly AngelList Talent)Reviews of wellfound.com

The biggest scam ever. I paid for Wellfound's premium career services and it was a complete waste of money. Terrible quality content and not helpful whatsoever. They use AI agents and AI-generated content, so do yourself a favor and use ChatGPT or some other free service instead.

I've been using WellFound for a few months now, and unfortunately, my experience has been frustrating. Here are the biggest issues I’ve encountered: Disappearing Job Listings – Every time I post a new job, I check back the next day only to find that it’s gone—without any explanation. There's no notification if it was removed by support or if it’s just a system glitch. Vanishing Messages – I’ve reached out to potential candidates who applied, only for our messages to completely disappear for weeks. Then, out of nowhere, they’ll reappear in my inbox. This makes communication extremely unreliable. Flawed Remote Hiring Options – If you select "remote," the system assumes you’re open to hiring anyone worldwide. There’s no easy way to limit remote candidates to just the U.S., unless you manually add one city at a time—which is time-consuming and inefficient. Given these issues, I cannot recommend spending money to advertise on WellFound until they fix these major flaws. It’s simply not worth the hassle. ***AN UPDATE*** Wellfound is managed by individuals who seem incapable of handling criticism professionally. Just two days after I posted my review, they blocked my account and revoked my access—an incredibly unprofessional move. This is a major red flag for anyone considering doing business with them. You can’t trust a company that lets emotions dictate their decisions.

Great experience using their platform. It provides so many opportunities for job employment.

I greatly enjoy using Wellfound. It is the best site for startup job search. I was able to find new and interesting opportunities listed by amazing startups. Highly recommend!

This is a place where you can find the most amazing companies to work for. Very intuitive website. If you want to find a company before it becomes big , you are in the right place

Wellfound is a super helpful website for outreach! I love it here. Super professional!

I had a fabulous time using the website to get interviews. I was successful in setting up conversations and my profile.

When I changed careers, I was able to find my first two roles to break into the industry on Wellfound. An internship and then an entry level role as a software engineer!
