Job Board Toolkits: Internet Matchmaking and Changes In Job Advertisements

With its long history of model refinement and empiri-cal testing (see Devine & Kiefer, 1991; Mortensen, 1986; Mortensen &Pissarides, 1999 for exhaustive surveys), the job search theory has provideda major contribution to the understanding of how labour markets function.The standard search approach does not, however, examine the differentmethods used by agents to gather labour market information. At micro-economic level, the job offer arrival rate, which is the outcome of the searchprocess, is either exogenous and random or, endogenous and greatly relatedto the intensity of the agent’s search.

The Guide to Semantic Search for Sourcing and Recruiting

Well – you’ve found the right article. As a follow-up to my recent Slideshare on AI sourcing and matching, I am going to provide an overview of semantic search, the claims that semantic search vendors often make, explain how semantic search applications actually work, and expose some practical limitations of semantic search recruiting solutions.

Relevancy is the quality of results returned from a query, encompassing both what documents are found, and their relative ranking (the order that they are returned to the user.)

Should I use the standard or dismax Query Parser The standard Query Parser uses SolrQuerySyntax to specify the query via the q parameter, and it must be well formed or an error will be returned. It's good for specifying exact, arbitrarily complex queries. The DisMax Query Parser has a more forgiving query parser for the q parameter, useful for directly passing in a user-supplied query string. The other parameters make it easy to search across multiple fields using disjunctions and sloppy phrase queries to return highly relevant results. For servicing user-entered queries, start by using dismax.

Kaput! Passé! Semantic search is in. Just as Rosie used a paper towel that was a “quicker picker upper,” digital search has become more exact by using semantic search technology. On May 16, Mashable reported that Google search would no longer be based on keywords in a search string, but on a much more refined understanding of how language is used. Semantic search uses a deeper understanding of the relationship between words and the intent of the searcher, so when you type in something on a search engine or on a closed loop system (like that found in an enterprise), the underlying software examines the broader meaning, digests it, and spits back results that are much more relevant. Semantic technology is a subject touched on in a previous post profiling an education start-up, but it deserves a deeper dive. According to the Gilbane Group, semantic software technology has led to a wide variety of improvements in:

Over the years, I have had the opportunity to evaluate several of the “big name” resume and job matching applications that claim to use artificial intelligence, and I can say that the claim that they can find the same resumes that an “experienced recruiter” would choose is both accurate and inaccurate.

Artificial Intelligence Resume Matching vs. Human Cognition

From my experience, most AI matching applications can return some well-matched resumes based on an example resume or job description. However, some of the results that are returned are definitely NOT good matches, although I can see why they were returned in the results.

It has been edited slightly so it could be archived here.) I will answer this question one step at a time. To keep this answer focused on the question, I will use other concepts that I will not define here. A controlled vocabulary is a list of terms that have been enumerated explicitly. This list is controlled by and is available from a controlled vocabulary registration authority. If the same term is commonly used to mean different concepts in different contexts, then its name is explicitly qualified to resolve this ambiguity. A taxonomy is a collection of controlled vocabulary terms organized into a hierarchical structure. Building_expert_profiles_models_applying_semantic_web_technologies.pdf (application/pdf Object)

Samuelson New computer software and analytical methods offer promising ways to combine two kinds of data traditionally separated: quantitative and qualitative information. What data mining became in the 1990s, text mining/text analytics may well become in the current decade – a powerful way to find patterns not previously suspected. Statistical analysis and understanding natural language can go together.

New methods and technology now make it possible to store, index, search and retrieve free-form text more effectively and efficiently, and on a much larger scale, than was possible just a few years ago. Buoyed by these advances, text mining offers great promise for OR/MS and general analytics. Computerized storage and keyword-based retrieval of free-form text is not new. In 1991, this reporter applied text-mining methods to demonstrate the ability to detect and discover patterns of causation in general aviation crashes [5].

things, not strings

But searching still requires a lot of hard work by you, the user. So today I’m really excited to launch the Knowledge Graph, which will help you discover new information quickly and easily. Take a query like [taj mahal]. For more than four decades, search has essentially been about matching keywords to queries. To a search engine the words [taj mahal] have been just that—two words. But we all know that [taj mahal] has a much richer meaning. The Knowledge Graph enables you to search for things, people or places that Google knows about—landmarks, celebrities, cities, sports teams, buildings, geographical features, movies, celestial objects, works of art and more—and instantly get information that’s relevant to your query.

Thesis_personal_search_jykim.pdf (application/pdf Object) Beyond Boolean: Human Capital Information Retrieval. When I recently spoke at SourceCon in New York, I showed an example Boolean search string that could be used as a challenge or an evaluation of a person’s knowledge and ability.

The search string looked something like this: (Director or “Project Manage*” or “Program Manage*” or PM*) w/250 xfirstword and (truck* or ship* or rail* or transport* or logistic* or “supply chain*”) w/10 (manag* or project)* and (Deloitte or Ernst or “E&Y” or KPMG or PwC or PricewaterhouseCoopers or “Price Waterhouse*”) During the presentation, an audience member asked me why there wasn’t any use of site:, inurl:, intitle:, etc.

I responded by acknowledging that for many, sourcing and Boolean search seems to be synonymous with Internet search – however, this is definitely not the case. Boolean Logic is Simply the Simplest Way to Search. Will 'Real Match' Simplify Job Hunting Process? Finding a job is not an easy task. Job seekers need to look at countless online and in-print offers and ads, as well as databases. They waste time sending in resumes and filling out questionnaires. If they’re lucky they might pass a first selection stage and then perhaps an interview, until they finally secure a job. Employers, in turn, advertise their job vacancies wherever they can and must later on deal with stacks of resumes.
