CareerBuilder acquires semantic recruitment company Textkernel
- flarg 11y agoI actually built a semantic engine for CV/job ad matching last year but I could never get over the feeling that it's not really what people want - so it's sitting dormant in my pile of ideas-I-never-launched.

IOW, you don't focus on conversion optimization if you don't have enough traffic. I do recruiting and because I'm a developer, matching is pretty trivial. But most recruiters don't have any serious dev experience, so if they need to search through a big database of resumes, this could help.
