Turning job vacancy data into better opportunities for jobseekers

Reed submitted a challenge to the Emergent Alliance, asking how job seeker's skills data might be used to help people get back into work after Covid, especially those whose sector or industry has been significantly disrupted. We contributed engineering, data science and product management effort towards the challenge.

Intelligent search engine

Our solution used thousands of job descriptions and skills to create a graph of canonical job roles, connected to other roles through a skills similarity measure. This provided the basis for a search engine which accepts skills as an input from which we’re able to produce a probabilistic rank of job clusters and a ranked results set based on continuously updated historical data.
