Hey everyone, I scored each "seeking work" post against each "hiring" ad. The scoring is based on the .similar method in the similar_text gem. If this is actually a meaningless method, please ignore this post :)
If you posted in the seeking work thread, you can look in the "spit" path for a ranked list of the jobs you ought to apply to!
EDIT: right now it looks like .similar doesn't actually work that well (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14136349/how-does-similar...) so I am looking for a better solution. I have switched to the amatch gem (https://github.com/makaroni4/amatch) and am re-running the comparison. Now I am using levenshtein distance but that still seems bad from what I am reading.
