Decided to channel this frustration & build an early MVP of a job matching platform that uses an AI agent to match candidates with the most relevant opportunities. How it works (also demo on YouTube https://youtu.be/qjnsgfctAQA?si=jTl2NNgMvLJcTFKR):

- Agent synthesizes data from candidate resume and future job preferences, searches our database of jobs that are most relevant based on the description, assigns a score 0-100% depending how well matched

- Candidates start getting a stream of jobs they are most qualified (80%+ matches). On the other side, recruiters / companies see candidates whose experiences & future preferences best fit each job description (80%+ scores). Each party can then swipe interested or not interested.

- Once matched, candidates can just schedule a 1st round interview with job posters / recruiters.

It does all the heavy duty work of helping both candidates and recruiters quickly pair without having to search through job boards, toss in applications one at a time, or email/DM on LinkedIn to get on someone's radar.

All feedback / thoughts and ways to improve encouraged & welcome :)
