Abstract:
A system, computer readable storage medium, and computer-implemented method performs an intelligent job hunt to determine a sorted set of job openings relevant to a user's career goals. An intelligent job hunt engine uses user profile information to query a job openings index for job's relevant to the user. Results of the query are filtered and sorted according to their relevance to different career goals. A job readiness evaluator determines readiness scores indicative of the user's preparedness for reaching a career goal. Specific action items are generated based on the user's interaction with the sorted job openings and the user's job readiness scores.
