Show HN: Web App that looks at your resume and matches you to jobs
I was tired of major job boards like LinkedIn/Indeed/Glass Door having spammy, promotions, and irrelevant job postings. Especially in ML where it was a pain to find MLE roles specializing in Computer Vision.
So I built Rocket Jobs. It looks at your resume and then uses semantic search to match you to relevant job postings based on your actual work experience. I spent a lot of time improving this "RAG" system by trying different embedding vendors and techniques to improve retrieval quality.
I intend to keep this 100% free. I'm able to run it for $0 rn. I'm also parsing 2M tokens a day all for free because I'm just using a 8B param llama for free rn from cerebras, groq, and together.ai. I plan to migrate to gemini later.
Also getting free postgres from aiven.io and free hosting from heroku student discount valid for 2 years

- stuckkeys 2y agoNice UI. I did not sign up or anything but looks fancy. Good luck! Also, nice use of free resources lol. Some of them have a fine print, if you generate a lot of traffic, they will remove your "free tier" just a heads up. If you do not mind me asking, how are you populating jobs? Are you using some kind of scraper or are you plugging into some of the known sources? I would love to know.
- theprophecy 2y agoThanks for checking it out! I wanted to make the app where you don't need to sign up because I hate signing up to have to use job boards and then getting spammed with dozens of nonsense emails I'm scraping career pages of more than 2k companies daily. Also using public API's from ATS (e.g. greenhouse/lever)
- theprophecy 2y agoI'm also an MLE so this was my first time writing any frontend code
