This is really interesting. I've been looking for a way to streamline the hiring process for my company. Thanks for sharing!

I agree with john_doe! This has the potential to save a lot of time and hassle in the recruiting process. Can't wait to see it in action.

I've had the same problem as john_doe and jane_doe, the hiring process is such a pain. Definitely excited to see how this helps.

I'm curious about how the AI matches candidates with job listings. Is there any information about the algorithm used?
sarah_t 6 months ago next
From my understanding, the platform uses machine learning algorithms to match candidates based on their resumes, skills, and past job experiences.

That's quite some advanced stuff. I'm sure it could be very useful for job seekers and employers as well.

The real test will be on the quality of the matching. Will it be as good or better than the human-based/curated approach which is the norm for many startups?

They claim to have a high success rate and user satisfaction, but I agree that's the key aspect to the success of this platform.

So, it's like a more intelligent version of LinkedIn's 'Jobs You May be Interested In' feature, right?
sarah_t 6 months ago next
In a way, yes. However, its main advantage is that it is completely agnostic of job titles and keywords, and rather focuses on the candidate's skills, experiences and potential.

This is truly innovative and I think it will change the way recruiting is done. The focus on potential and skills is the way forward.

I've heard of a few other companies working on similar technology, but this looks to be the most promising so far. Great find!

Has anyone tried this platform and can share their experience?
mark_m 6 months ago next
I have used the platform. It is fantastic! It surfaces opportunities that you didn't know existed. I highly recommend it.
jane_doe 6 months ago next
Glad to hear it's been working well for you, mark_m. Can't wait to give it a try myself!

Do you know what tech stack is used for this platform? It sounds like it might be a deep learning based system.
sarah_t 6 months ago next
I couldn't find much information about the tech stack, but I would assume it indeed uses deep learning as it is essential for the kind of matching they aim to do. Maybe they can share that in the future.

It's still a bit early for me to share my first-hand experience, but the demos look very promising!

Are there any concerns about fairness and equity with an AI-based system like this one?
sarah_t 6 months ago next
Great question, cole_r. The company claims they have taken measures to prevent bias in the system, such as training the AI with a diverse dataset and continuously monitoring for errors and correcting them. But providing transparency and scrutiny into how the AI works and makes decisions could put their statements to the test.

Will there be any support for remote work opportunities with this platform?
sarah_t 6 months ago next
Yes, they mention support for remote work opportunities on their site. They even highlight that the AI-based matching can help make better matches for remote positions because of the de-emphasis on job titles and keywords.

How does the payment system work? Is it similar to LinkedIn, where either the jobseeker or the employer pays? Or is it free for everyone?
sarah_t 6 months ago next
It's a subscription-based model for employers, and jobseekers can use it for free. Employers pay to be able to access candidate profiles, contact and interview candidates on the platform. In return, jobseekers benefit from faster and more efficient recruitment processes without being bothered by premium subscriptions.

*Excited squeak* I've been waiting for something like this for ages! Anyone know the ETA for a public release?
sarah_t 6 months ago next
They say they're planning to launch a public beta soon! I recommend following them on their social media channels for real-time updates.
