Job seeker platform

Once you've decided to establish such a platform, you should be aware of the major obstacles that may arise before/after you launch an online marketplace. It will assist you in escaping them.

Mismatch in candidate qualifications

It indicates that a candidate may seem to be a good fit for a firm, but subsequently looks to be overqualified or lacking the necessary set of professional abilities. On the other hand, even after passing an interview, a job opening may look irrelevant to an applicant.

The issue is mostly driven by obsolete algorithms that match results based on SEO. A mismatch problem may arise if a candidate does not employ the appropriate or sufficient quantity of "correct keywords."

Using Artificial Intelligence technology is one of the excellent options. IBM, for example, uses AI-based tools to choose resumes from prospects. The operating premise is simple but effective: the algorithm watches both applicants' CVs and social network profiles to gather additional information about a prospect. Following that, the computer matches an applicant's talents to the most appropriate job opportunity.

Job posting dependability

Many candidates who utilize job boards complain about outdated job advertisements.

Irrelevant postings emerge when website moderation falls short of expectations. To address this issue, we propose that you consider how you can determine if the posts are of good quality and up to date. It's a good idea to automate the monitoring process so that the software controls the post date, its status, and the user/company that posted the vacancy.

Another viable option is to charge for posting on the network. No longer will employers be interested in keeping the position outmoded or useless.

Vulnerability of user data

Spammers often target job website users, capturing their emails or sending a flood of texts to their mobile phones. Sure, there are regulations in the United States that safeguard personal information, such as HIPAA (in the medical field) or the CCPA (in California), among others.

However, no legislative law exists in the United States that completely protects private data (controls collection, processing, and storage), like GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) does in the European Union. As a result, consider the following steps to improve the security of your job search platform:

Users' contact information should not be shown. You may develop an intraplatform chat to allow users to converse.

Prevent information from being copied. Integrate anti-scrappers to prevent other job search engines from copying data from your website.

Inform users of all rules and regulations. Request that platform users read the materials thoroughly and indicate that they have done so.
