Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I am Kapil. I made english-jobs.com
The problem
In Germany, many jobs need German.
In France, many jobs need French.
In Spain, many jobs need Spanish.
If you do not speak the local language, it is hard to find a good job. You open many jobs, but they say “German required” or “French required”. This is slow and tiring.
I had this problem. I got frustrated. So I built english-jobs.com.
Now you can find English jobs only. No ads. Simple page. 150k+ jobs, free tools, apply on the company site.
As a student in India exploring opportunities abroad, language requirements can often be a significant challenge. I appreciate that this platform filters jobs based on language criteria from the start, making the listings more relevant and saving time.
@ikapilm I recently started looking at opportunities abroad and language requirements are often confusing. I like how English Jobs focuses specifically on English-speaking roles. It saves a lot of time and effort. Great initiative!
as a student in India who's been exploring opportunities in Europe, the language barrier thing is so real you get excited about a role, spend time reading it, and then find the German/Spanish requirement at the bottom. the direct company page links are a detail that actually matters a lot too, most job boards send you through their own flow and half the time the listing is already dead. one thing that would help me personally is a visa sponsorship filter — for anyone coming from outside the EU, that's usually the second wall right after language. really useful product
I think the interesting part here is that you're not competing on the number of job listings. You're competing on relevance.
A lot of job platforms optimize for more results, but as a candidate I'd rather see 20 jobs I can actually apply to than 500 that get filtered out because of language requirements.
That's what made the value click for me
@ikapilm The direct linking to the company's application page stands out to me. A lot of job boards add extra layers before candidates can apply, so this feels much more efficient. I'm curious how you verify that job listings stay active and up to date across so many countries.
Honestly, looking for a job in Europe when you only speak English is exhausting. You usually have to scroll through dozens of listings, apply, and then find out three interview rounds later that they won’t sponsor your visa if you’re from outside the EU. Having a tool that actually filters for this directly is such a relief. Quick question for the team—do you guys plan on adding a feature to track which companies are actively helping with relocation costs, or is it just visa sponsorship for now? Either way, super helpful project. Upvoted!
As someone from India who occasionally looks at opportunities in Europe, this solves a very real frustration. A lot of job boards make you spend time reading through listings only to discover near the end that German,French, or another local language is required.
I also checked the site and liked that it sends applications to the original company pages rather than reposting jobs through multiple layers.
Overall this product is really good that solves a genuine pain point.
Being a student in India looking for opportunities abroad, the language barrier is a real concern. This is a great source to find the right job with many options. 150K+ direct company links is useful.
Congratulations on the launch! The filtering at source is what makes this different most boards show the listing first and bury the language requirement three paragraphs in. The direct company page links also remove the middleman friction that kills most aggregator apply flows.There is one question like do you have a feedback loop where users can flag mislabeled listings to retrain it over time ?.
The "German required" buried at the end of an otherwise perfect JD is one of the most demoralizing things about job hunting in Europe as a non-EU applicant. Glad someone finally built a clean solution for this instead of just complaining about it.
Congratulations on the launch! The idea solves a real problem for international job seekers. I'm curious, how do you verify whether a job truly requires only English and doesn't have hidden local-language requirements in the description?
Ended up spending more time on the methodology page than the homepage and what stood out was how specific it is about the limitations. It even calls out where the English filter breaks today: postings in Spain, Italy, and France with English boilerplate but a local language requirement. Looking forward to the post-launch improvements like language confidence scoring, title normalization, and candidate feedback loops.
I actually ran into a few of those false positives on the jobs page. One was literally titled "AI Engineer... German Required." Seeing the same edge cases documented upfront made the methodology feel a lot more credible.
Congrats on the launch, Kapil!
Finally a proper tool, which can help to find only English jobs! Else I was gonna start learning French or German
Congrats on the launch! This solves the exact pain of going through jobs where the title says “English” but the description later hides a German/French/Spanish requirement. I like that you kept the flow simple and intuitive. One thing I’m curious about: how are you detecting the language requirements when they are phrased indirectly, like “client-facing German market role” or something like “local stakeholder communication”? Is it like a rule-based parsing, a classifier, or embeddings over the JD text to separate hard requirements from optional ones?
@ikapilm What I liked most is that this solves a problem much earlier in the job search process than most platforms do. As someone who looks at opportunities abroad, I have often seen roles that look interesting at first but later turn out to require a local language. Filtering for English-friendly jobs upfront removes a lot of that frustration.
The country-level insights and company research pages were a nice surprise too—they make the platform feel more useful than a simple job board.
One thing I kept thinking about is that job-posting language and workplace language are not always the same. A role may be listed in English, but day-to-day communication can still happen mostly in a local language. It would be interesting to see how future versions help candidates understand that part of the experience as well.
Congrats on the launch! @ikapilm Navigating global job boards can be incredibly frustrating when language requirements aren’t explicitly clear up front. Filter structures like this save job seekers hours of vetting.
Out of curiosity, are there plans to integrate a filter or badge for 'Visa Sponsorship Available' vs. 'Local English-Speaking Only'? For expats and international applicants, that’s usually the second biggest hurdle right after language alignment. Looking forward to watching this scale!
this honestly solves a problem i've run into quite a few times. when looking for internships or jobs, a lot of time gets wasted figuring out whether a role is actually accessible for english speakers. having that clarity from the start makes the process so much easier. really useful idea, congrats on the launch
As a college student in India, I'm always looking out for remote roles to upskill and get some real-world experience. I'm really glad I found this site because having actual opportunities aggregated in one place saves me from the usual frustration of digging through irrelevant listings.
That being said, it isn't completely perfect yet. Just wanted to offer a little constructive feedback:
Even though it's an english-jobs site, I still saw a few bilingual roles slip through. It would be better if it strictly filtered for just English speakers, or provides an option for users to specify the languages they know in their profile. That way, they could get specific targeted jobs.
For some of the listings, the category, job type, and seniority data wasn't fetched properly and looked bugged. The system you're using to fetch details from listings should have a certain fallback if it fails to fetch those details. This is an example from one of the listings: "Category enrichmentfailed"
It would be super helpful to add a specific "years of experience required" section in jobs, especially for freshers like me who need to know if we actually qualify.
Overall though, I really appreciate you building this. It's a really solid start and already incredibly useful!
The English-first approach actually solves a real problem, and I love that the apply links go straight to the company's real page instead of dead re-posts. Found a couple of roles I hadn't seen elsewhere too.
The honest feedback would be that the auto-detected "English" label let through a few listings that still wanted the local language, so a verified badge would go a long way. And some visa or sponsorship info would be huge, especially for non-EU folks like me.
