If you want to show off your site, you should do a "Show HN" and tell us about it, not link to a press release about it.

Of course, the press release says you wrote a crawler that spiders corporate job listings pages, which is fine, but is not "unlisted jobs"... it just is another aggregator. It is not breaking through any walls that makes these jobs "inaccessible to the masses."

So basically, you may have a decent service but are shooting yourself in the foot with shoddy marketing.
