I tried to get a demo, but it said that based on my information provided, they are not able to offer it to our organization. Seems like we had all the right answers, small, Google focused email and calendar, etc. Any ideas on the criteria for a demo?

Wow, it's pretty awesome!

This looks incredible and being part of the G-Suite offering is 🔥. I would think everyone at Greenhouse etc is very scared right now.

Does anyone know if mail templates are or will be incorporated into Gmail? I've been dying for that feature (maybe I've missed it)

The pricing page doesn't have pricing. Not a good sign! I expected this would be an add on for gsuite. It would be interesting if they bill it as a premium offering instead of another reason to use gsuite.
Napoleon Suarez
@daveaseeman I'm with you. I think they will upcharge for this (which is a shame). Makes more sense to just bake it into g suite.
Patrick Wang
@daveaseeman Possibly feeling out the pricing until they get a good handle on what they can charge that meets market expectations.

I hear there's a couple job openings in the Justice Department's antitrust division.

It frustrates me because it seems as though all these companies are coming out with job search applications that make it easier for the companies, but not the job seekers. Ideally, I want platform that is tailored for the job seeker and can give me all the information about the company before I make a decision about applying.

@alex_guggenberger, enter @jobiki? I think your point is correct, but if you think about the fact that 60-70% of job searches start on google, then google would answer that they have made it easier. I believe your point is it doesn't solve for is making it easier to get a job rather than find jobs. I've been in the job space for a long time, and there doesn't seem to be a silver bullet, but I'll check out Jobiki when it's live!

Do you think it will beat LinkedIn? I'm not sure
Jason Scheckner
@kostyarypta I don't think LinkedIn is primary target here. I think it's Indeed and and Greenhouse/Lever. They know that Indeed has leveraged that people start their job search on Google forever. Now they are just going to take that traffic. On the google/Hire side, they've seen the amount of funding going into talent products and they have a huge recruiting organization themselves. I can imagine this was born out of opportunity / need. LinkedIn is not at ATS, so it's not really competitive- their primary revenue is passive candidate sourcing- no one really bother to create Google Profiles on Plus, so that will still be LinkedIn's territory.
