Part of Google Cloud Job Discovery is letting seekers find jobs ... the other is getting the "jobs in front of the right candidates." Does this sound familiar? It seems like another opportunity for an individual seeker to be put in an algorithmic jail, with opaqueness and little recourse we usually expect from Google.

- jsilence 9y agoyeah, evolution deals with "dna-jail" by mutating to a certain degree. and we already see that in the recommended clips algorithm by YT. we are occasionally offered stuff from outside your bubble.
