Job board from Interface Lovers.
Anyone should be able to have a job board for their content driven site.
IH started hacking on the idea and built it out.

## Top 3 product questions
There are 3 questions that come to mind in my initial review
- What are the best interactions customers have had that are easily repeatable?
  - The signup flow is easy


- What is the most common theme the support team is logging as it relates to cancellations or churn?
  - Lack of customization
  - It's currently a good way to validate if the idea of a topical job board could work then they leave for a platform with more features

- Where is it obvious, from your perspective, of how the technology could be better to help drive the business?
  - The Job Board experience
  - JS Clientside, Django (python)
  - I want the job board to be server-rendered (SEO)
    - Server rendered in Django
