I am starting my River of Jobs Project today ... I have Vagrant running on my Windows 11 box, which gives one the power of Linux, Emacs and LaTeX all running inside a (lowly) Windows machine.
River of Jobs is a new system (tentative title) to take a serious bite out of the three major job hunting sites on the Internet: ICIMS, Workday, and Indeed.com.
I have made a lot of money as recently as 2023, mostly using Indeed but these three have variations of the same problem: ICIMS and Workday ALWAYS ask for race and gender of job seekers on the FRONT side, not just the back side (where this data is no doubt required by the US government). How this got to the front side of these two sites: I figure they were staffed exclusively (or nearly so) with white males, of the MBA variety, most likely.
Indeed is not quite as bad; only some of its jobs require race and gender on the front end. But it's been showing another problem lately: I could spend 20-30 minutes on a single job application, click APPLY NOW on Indeed, and I get 405 NOT FOUND ... the plan is to come up with a web application with an interface that shows the invariant part with the job seeker's info and the table with the job requirements [Needs, Qualifications] .... it would read the resume of the person doing the job application and generate a beautiful LaTeX resume .... and I plan to charge nothing for the job seekers and $10 per listing for the companies.
