As a working guy in my 20’s who is not quite yeshivish or modern I can tell you that although I have gone to a shadchan before (and probably will again) I prefer not to. In my case it seemed like the shadchan was basing who he set up by his opinions of them based on a five minute meeting and with no real knowledge of them. I’m not saying he was a bad guy but I think the system is inefficient and I’d rather be set up by someone who really knows me and the girl. Just b/c I’m working and a girl is looking for a working guy doesn’t mean were perfect for each other. I think the idea behind Shidduchworld is a good one that should be expanded to include more detailed information and there needs to be a way for it to work with all willing shadchanim so there will be more singles listed.
