Abstract
Implementations generally relate to a method of matching job-seekers and employers in real-time with low required effort by the job-seekers and employers. A system-wide taxonomy is used in matching job-seekers and employers, thereby reducing the time for the recruiting process. Employers create a job position, and specify the relative importance of traits associated with the job position. Job-seekers answer profile questions (e.g. work experience), and the system uses the taxonomy to generate a list of job-seeker skills based on the answers to these questions. A list of job-seekers is then generated for the job position based on a mapping of the available job-seekers' skills and the employer rankings of the job position traits. A number of additional factors, like job seekers' in-app engagement, are used to further sort and filter the list of job-seekers.
