What I'd love to see is a view on the "who's hiring" where I can start by saything something like:

* I live in Germany, and want to work remotely.

Then it filters out all the onsite jobs as well as the remote US or remote UK only jobs. It should be smart enough to know that Germany is in Europe, so Europe or anywhere remote jobs should remain.

Then I would like if it could extract some features and show them for the remaining jobs, and ideally I could filter by those features.

Features I'm interested in:

* type of employer (government, corporation, startup, non-profit)

* ethical orientation (wouldn't want to work for an ad company that sell user data, would very much like to work for an EV charging startup that tries to contribute to solving climate change). If that doesn't work, industry might serve as a proxy

* technologies used

* role type (developer, architect, product owner etc.)

* salary range (if available)

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I'll second this. I would like to give this a try (been job hunting for the past 6 months), but I'm also a bit paranoid in sharing a lot of data, especially with a service that has no privacy policy.

Very fair point! Not to put the onus on you but do you happen to have any pointers on where I can get started? As it stands, I am using google analytics, and also storing the resume text (though not the document), and the embedding of the text. I hope at the very least that provides some transparency.

Get privacy policy from iubenda. Easy and cheap.

Use Wide Angle Analytics instead of Plausible or Google Analytics. Much better choice if you ever leak personal data to your analytics platform and very few solutions support PD. Wide Angle does.

Given the personal data you are processing, some might even become sensitive (disability status), you need DPO ( Data Protection Officer). There are DPO as a service out there.

I don’t feel safe uploading a cv to an untrusted site. It doesn’t explain what happens with the cv on first glance after it’s uploaded. Good luck

Surely your CV is inherently public information, isn't it non-negative for you if it's shared or 'leaked'?

I appreciate the well wishes, your suspicion completely understandable (and frankly warranted). Others in this thread have suggested a Privacy Policy, looks like that's the next thing on my todo list. But as it stands, the resume text is stored, while the document itself is not. This is so I can cache resume embeddings to try and keep my OpenAI API costs to a minimum.

I didn't know this about ChatGPT - brokers of user data, trading data collected for compute. As interesting as this is, there's a lil bit of an interesting public policy and computer technology for fair use of one's personal data. No expert, but might be a slippery slope long term, so highly suggest you get a checkbox in there with some sort of absolvement in liability between your app and the user's resume.

Other than that, it's like all good things - 80% of it is the button click, while the last 20% is proofing the final result and correcting the model so the machine can learn.

God Speed man. Love new tools.

Pure curiosity.. what evil could come from your work history being public or falling in the "wrong hands" whatever those may be?

This us a great tool!

One thing that would make it a lot more useful IMO would be if the posts were somehow collapsed at first, showing the headline information about the role, so I could open the ones that look interesting or sound like a good fit instead of needing to scroll past their full text.

That sounds like a good idea, but I do wonder if it's a little too... safe? Every job I've ever taken, there were bullet points in the requirements that I didn't have. And every job has been in a different industry. (Granted, this is only 5 job hops in over 15 years) I'm not really sure I'd want to be perfectly qualified for a new job. Part of the fun is learning new stuff. Of course, I do understand that any job is…

AI is statistics based. It's not going to give you only 100% matches.
