Mr. Goodliving Plays It Until The Very End
Last week we wrote about Mr. Goodliving and its parent company RealNetworks closing down the company in Finland. The downside of the whole episode is that close to 50 people will lose their jobs. The company is playing the game until the end in a very stylish way. Today we noticed that instead of hiring new talent, they're showing the list of people they are firing. A great way to find new homes (in the meaning of work) for the talented individuals inside the company.
Mr. Goodliving has stated that those with most open positions, will receive audience at their office to present and pitch their company. The site also features the contact details to get in touch with a possibility to pitch your company for the newly available talent.
Below is a screenshot of the current company website as of February 14th.

Very good move from Mr. Goodliving. I'm sure these professionals won't be on the market for many weeks/days.
E.g. Grey Area, Supercell and Applifier are hiring to similar roles and have multiple open positions. All the companies are backed up by exceptionally good investors and have plenty of runway, which is definitely a plus nowadays.
