HN Match

this is cool! incidentally we do a similar motion internally for members on https://www.hedgy.works how did you think about evaluating quality when designing your ranker / fit scoring?

> If you've submitted a post to this month's 'Who Wants to Be Hired?", you can find your matching job listings at https://hnmatchmaker.com/user/:user_name, for example https://hnmatchmaker.com/user/G4Vi I'm sure you mean well but as someone who has considered posting on who wants to be hired in the past.... this is creepy AF and feels like a giant invasion of privacy. If you did it privately, or authenticated people in some way, sure, but as is it feels like you're putting people on blast. Also this sounds way more like an advertisement for "abacus.ai" than a side project announcement. Your post also starts a list of "things" ("Some observations when looking at the matches pair up right now:") with no list. Actually, nothing about this really feels good faith, or real.

Can you add a switch for: • Disable illegal university recruiter pipelines that label all other candidates as “external” which gives them entirely different recruiters and is also illegally shown to the interviewer drastically lowering the chance of the candidate moving forward making it far easier for university and Ivy League grads to get hired over anyone else with the same or better credentials

I left an incomplete section in the post body, then went shopping. So here it is: --- Some observations when looking at the matches pair up right now: - individuals looking for jobs have extremely general postings - companies looking to hire have extremely specific postings - generally, match scores are very low (<50%) because of this mismatch - individuals don't typically mention domain knowledge in any specific way - individuals don't typically mention prior work history beyond time-in-industry (this makes sense on a public forum) - individuals typically list technologies used I don't have any conclusions to make right now, no advice for job posters or job seekers. It'll take two or three more of these before I've seen enough to start gelling the domain problems in my head.

This is neat! What I would do is I would have a list of tags and make sure every post gets pigeonholed into those because otherwise it might be hard to match tags if extracted on a per-post basis (e.g. I see `large-scale data systems` for a job listing, which will rarely match a candidate because it's so wordy). Cool product though.
