Show HN: JobTweets – Find Real Time Job Tweets
- juice_bus 9y agoReally neat - it would be interesting if there was an ability to (some how) filter the tweets based on the occupation they are hiring for (technical, sales, retail, etc). Location based is "to do" which would really great.
- flickzcode 9y agoThanks, I'm working on that and contributions are welcome.
- gurgus 9y agoThis is pretty sweet. Very simple and the code base looks pretty easy to follow. I should get some time this evening to submit a PR to add a couple of small things :)
- flickzcode 9y agoThanks!! The PR will mean a lot
- onion2k 9y agoThe stream filter terms in server.js are 'we are hiring, looking for interns, we are employing, vacancy!, we have job available'. How did you pick them? I've never searched Twitter for a job but I can imagine there are a lot of jobs that those terms are going to miss.
- flickzcode 9y agoIt was just an initial experiment, help improve it! Thanks.
- bertomartin 9y agoUse ML. Gather a bunch of tweets and learn a model that classifies tweets (job listing / not job listing). Then use the model as a filter. You can use it in concert with your current implementation: if the tweet contains any of your keywords, there's no need to invoke the model. Hope that helps.
- flickzcode 9y agoCool. Thanks
- anton_tarasenko 9y agoTwitter Search does pretty much the same: "(hiring OR job)"[1]. Easy to get relevant results with right keywords. Also, Twitter already has filters for location and followers.
