Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention

[0011] The employment support system 1 of this embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the same reference numerals are given to configurations having the same or similar functions. Also, duplicate descriptions of these configurations may be omitted.

[0012] [Functional Configuration of Employment Support System 1] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of the employment support system 1 of this embodiment. The employment support system 1 includes a server 10, a storage device 20, a job seeker terminal device 30, and an employer terminal device 40. The server 10 is connected to the job seeker terminal device 30 and the employer terminal device 40 by wired communication or wireless communication via a network NT such as the Internet.

[0013] The job seeker terminal device 30 is a device used by job seekers. In the following description, a job seeker is also referred to as a customer or a user of the job seeker terminal device 30. The job seeker terminal device 30 is a computer device such as a personal computer, a tablet, or a smartphone, and includes a display unit 31, an operation unit 32, and a terminal arithmetic unit 33. The display unit 31 includes, for example, a liquid crystal display, and displays an image or the like provided from the server 10 based on the control of the terminal arithmetic unit 33. The operation unit 32 includes, for example, a keyboard, a mouse, a touch panel, etc., and receives operations by the user of the job seeker terminal device 30. The terminal arithmetic unit 33 includes, for example, a central processing unit (CPU), receives information such as an image transmitted from the server 10, causes the display unit 31 to display the received image, and transmits the operation of the user input to the operation unit 32 to the server 10, etc. It has functions such as controlling each part of the job seeker terminal device 30.

[0014] The employer terminal device 40 is a device used by, for example, a corporate recruiter or an agent. In the following description, these recruiters or agents are also referred to as employers, clients, or users of the employer terminal device 40. The employer terminal device 40 is a computer device such as a personal computer, a tablet, or a smartphone, and includes a display unit 41, an operation unit 42, and a terminal arithmetic unit 43. The display unit 41 includes, for example, a liquid crystal display, and displays an image or the like provided from the server 10 based on the control of the terminal arithmetic unit 43. The operation unit 42 includes, for example, a keyboard, a mouse, a touch panel, etc., and receives operations by the user of the employer terminal device 40. The terminal arithmetic unit 43 includes, for example, a central processing unit (CPU), receives information such as an image transmitted from the server 10, causes the display unit 41 to display the received image, and transmits the operation of the user input to the operation unit 42 to the server 10, etc. It has functions such as controlling each part of the employer terminal device 40.

[0015] Server 10 provides various functions by operating based on programs and data stored in storage device 20. The storage device 20 includes, for example, a semiconductor memory, a hard disk device, etc., and stores programs and data for operating the server 10. Note that the storage device 20 may be a virtual memory (e.g., cloud memory) configured on a network. Also, the storage device 20 may be built into the server 10.

[0016] The storage device 20 stores job offer information 21, job seeker information 22, and scout information 23.

[0017] Server 10 includes an employer information processing unit 101, a job seeker information processing unit 102, a job offer extraction unit 103, a tag determination unit 104, a candidate information processing unit 105, a scout processing unit 106, a display control unit 107, and a storage control unit 108 as software function units or hardware function units. Hereinafter, an overview of the functions of the tag determination unit 104 and the display control unit 107 among these units will be described.

[0018] The tag determination unit 104 acquires the job seeker tags set by a job seeker in their work history information and the employer tags set by an employer in a job offer, and determines the relevance between the employer tags set in the job offer and the job seeker tags of the viewed job seeker. Also, the tag determination unit 104 determines the relevance after a job seeker selects a job offer and before the job offer is displayed. Also, the tag determination unit 104 proposes a job offer to a job seeker based on at least one of the job seeker's work history information and the employer's screening actions, and determines the relevance before the job offer is displayed. Also, the tag determination unit 104 compares the employer tags in the job content column of the job offer and the employer tags in the required skills / experience column with the job seeker tags respectively.

[0019] In addition, the tag determination unit 104 acquires the applicant tag set by the applicant in the work history information and the employer tag set by the employer in the job offer ticket, and determines the relevance between the employer tag set in the job offer ticket and the applicant tag of the applicant.

[0020] When the applicant views the job offer ticket, the display control unit 107 highlights and presents to the applicant the match tags, which are the employer tags with high relevance to the applicant tag among the employer tags set in the job offer ticket, compared to the unmatch tags, which are the employer tags with low relevance. In addition, the display control unit 107 highlights and displays the employer tags in the job content column and the employer tags in the required skills / experience column respectively based on the comparison result. Note that highlighting and presenting the match tags includes making the color of the match tags different from the color of the unmatch tags. In addition, highlighting and presenting the match tags includes non-highlighting the color of the unmatch tags.

[0021] In addition, the display control unit 107 presents the employer's information to the applicant in a presentation mode based on the degree of relevance between the employer tag and the applicant tag. In addition, the display control unit 107 arranges the information of the employer with high relevance between the employer tag and the applicant tag at the top of the employer list in the presentation mode. In addition, the display control unit 107 notifies the applicant of the information of the employer with high relevance between the employer tag and the applicant tag, and does not notify the applicant of the information of the employer with low relevance between the employer tag and the applicant tag, so as to adopt a presentation mode based on the degree of relevance. In addition, the display control unit 107 displays an operation screen for viewing the information of the employer with low relevance between the employer tag and the applicant tag. In addition, the display control unit 107 does not present the information of the employer with low relevance between the employer tag and the applicant tag, so as to adopt a presentation mode based on the degree of relevance.

[0022] The memory control unit 108 controls the exchange of information regarding the information that the server 10 stores in the storage device 20 and the information that the server 10 reads from the storage device 20. In the following description, it is described that each of the above units directly reads and writes to the storage device 20, and the description of the operation of the memory control unit 108 is omitted.

[0023] [Flow of operations of the server 10] Next, the flow of operations of the server 10 and the configuration of the screens displayed on the job seeker terminal device 30 and the employer terminal device 40 will be described step by step.

[0024] [Registration of job offers] FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the flow of operations for registering job offer information 21 in the present embodiment. (Step S411) The employer inputs the job offer information 21 into the employer terminal device 40. (Step S111) The employer information processing unit 101 acquires the job offer information 21 input into the employer terminal device 40 and stores it in the storage device 20.

[0025] The job offer information 21 manages recruitment information such as the recruitment conditions determined by the employer for a job, the management policy, and the culture and atmosphere of the workplace, which is presented to job seekers to appeal for their applications. The job offer information 21 is stored in the storage device 20. An example of the configuration of the job offer information 21 is shown in FIG. 3.

[0026] FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the job offer information 21 in the present embodiment. In the figure, each row of the job offer information 21 is also referred to as a job offer. Recruitment conditions such as the job type to be recruited, the expected annual income, and the place of work can be set as recruitment information in the job offer. The job offer information 21 assigns a job offer ID to each job offer to identify a plurality of job offers. In step S411 described above, the employer inputs the recruitment information for each job offer ID. The recruitment ticket information 21 is registered for each job type such as, for example, "Product Manager" or "Client Success". The recruitment ticket information 21 can be registered under various names depending on the recruitment purpose of the employer. For example, the recruitment ticket information 21 may be registered as a combination of a job type and an age group (number of years of experience), such as "Product Manager (Veteran)" or "Client Success (Junior)".

[0027] The recruitment ticket information 21 is associated with the recruitment information determined by the employer and tag information representing the content of the recruitment information. The tag information representing the content of the recruitment information is also referred to as the employer tag TgCL. Here, the tag information is information expressed so that a computer can calculate the similarity and relevance between a plurality of tags regarding the content and meaning indicated by the tags. In the following description, the similarity and relevance between a plurality of tags are also referred to as the distance between tags in the semantic space.

[0028] (Step S412) Returning to FIG. 2, the employer inputs the employer tag TgCL for the recruitment ticket information 21 registered in step S411. (Step S112) The employer information processing unit 101 acquires the employer tag TgCL and associates the acquired employer tag TgCL with the recruitment information of the recruitment ticket information 21.

[0029] [Presentation of Recruitment Information] FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the operation flow of presenting a recruitment ticket in the present embodiment. (Step S321) The job seeker inputs job history information. The job history information is information indicating the past or current job history of the job seeker, such as the job type, annual income, and work location described in the job seeker's resume (so-called resume). (Step S121) The job seeker information processing unit 102 acquires the job history information input by the job seeker and stores it in the storage device 20 as the job seeker information 22. An example of the configuration of the job seeker information 22 is shown in FIG. 5.

[0030] FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of applicant information 22 of the present embodiment. In the figure, each row of applicant information 22 is also referred to as an individual job history. The applicant information 22 identifies a plurality of individual job histories by attaching an applicant ID to each individual job history.

[0031] The applicant information 22 is associated with the job history of the applicant and tag information representing the content of the job history. The tag information representing the content of the job history is also referred to as an applicant tag TgCS. Similar to the employer tag TgCL described above, the applicant tag TgCS is information expressed such that a computer can calculate the similarity and relevance between a plurality of tags regarding the content and meaning indicated by the tags.

[0032] In step S321, the applicant information processing unit 102 prompts the applicant to input the applicant tag TgCS. For example, when the applicant inputs job history information, the applicant information processing unit 102 displays a tag candidate screen in a question format on the display unit 31 of the applicant terminal device 30 and allows the applicant to select the applicant tag TgCS. The applicant information processing unit 102 stores the tag selected by the applicant as the applicant tag TgCS of the applicant information 22 in the storage device 20.

[0033] [Viewing Recruitment Information] Returning to FIG. 4, the operation flow of viewing recruitment information by the applicant will be described. (Step S322) The applicant operates the applicant terminal device 30 to display a recruitment ticket list. The applicant terminal device 30 transmits the applicant ID and a recruitment ticket list display request to the server 10. (Step S122) The recruitment ticket extraction unit 103 extracts the recruitment tickets to be displayed based on the display of the recruitment ticket list. More specifically, when the job offer ticket extraction unit 103 receives a job offer ticket list display request, it uses the job seeker ID as a search key to obtain the personal job history of the job seeker who is the request source from the job seeker information 22. The job offer ticket extraction unit 103 obtains the job seeker tag TgCS associated with the obtained personal job history. The job offer ticket extraction unit 103 extracts the employer tag TgCL whose distance in the semantic space is close to the job seeker tag TgCS from the job offer ticket information 21.

[0034] FIG. 6 is a diagram showing the concept of the distance between tags in the present embodiment. In this figure, the concept of the distance between the employer tag TgCL and the job seeker tag TgCS in the semantic space of the employment support system 1 is shown.

[0035] As described above, the employer tag TgCL is associated with the job offer ticket in the job offer ticket information 21. In this example, in the above-described steps S411 and S111, among a plurality of employers, the first employer registers the first job offer ticket (job offer ticket ID: CL01), the second employer registers the second job offer ticket (job offer ticket ID: CL02), and the third employer registers the third job offer ticket (job offer ticket ID: CL03).

[0036] FIG. [A] schematically shows the distance between the employer tag TgCL1 of the first employer and the job seeker tags TgCS of a plurality of job seekers. FIG. [B] schematically shows the distance between the employer tag TgCL2 of the second employer and the job seeker tags TgCS of a plurality of job seekers. In an example of FIGS. [A] and [B], among a plurality of job seekers, the job seeker tag TgCS1 of the first job seeker (job seeker ID: CU01), the job seeker tag TgCS2 of the second job seeker (job seeker ID: CU02), and the job seeker tag TgCS3 of the third job seeker (job seeker ID: CU03) are shown.

[0037] Focusing on the job seeker tag TgCS1 of the first job seeker and comparing FIG. [A] with FIG. [B], the job seeker tag TgCS1 is closer in the semantic space to the employer tag TgCL1 of the first employer than to the employer tag TgCL2 of the second employer. More specifically, the job seeker tag TgCS1 has a shorter distance in the semantic space from the employer tag TgCL1 associated with the job offer (job offer ID: CL01) registered by the first employer than from the employer tag TgCL2 associated with the job offer (job offer ID: CL02) registered by the second employer. In this case, it means that the work experience of the first job seeker has a higher degree of matching (i.e., is more in line) with the job requirements of the first employer than with those of the second employer.

[0038] In the above description, it has been described that an employer registers one job offer (i.e., there is a one-to-one correspondence between the employer and the job offer), but this is not limited to this. An employer can register multiple job offers. The job offer extraction unit 103 calculates the distance between the employer tag TgCL and the job seeker tag TgCS for each job offer. When an employer registers multiple job offers, expressions such as "the employer tag TgCL1 of the first employer" and "the employer tag TgCL2 of the second employer" described above may be read as "the employer tag TgCL1 of the first job offer (job offer ID: CL01)" and "the employer tag TgCL2 of the second job offer (job offer ID: CL02)".

[0039] Returning to FIG. 4, as described above, the job offer extraction unit 103 calculates the distance (i.e., the tag distance) between the job seeker tag TgCS1 and the employer tag TgCL2 for a plurality of employers (or a plurality of job offers). Based on the calculated tag distance and the degree of matching with other job requirements, the job offer extraction unit 103 extracts the job offers that match the work experience of the job seeker from the job offer information 21.

[0040] (Step S123) The tag determination unit 104 sets highlighting for the employer tag TgCL associated with the job offer extracted by the job offer extraction unit 103.

[0041] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing the concept of the distance between the job seeker tag TgCS of the present embodiment and a plurality of employer tags TgCL. In this figure, in the semantic space of the employment support system 1, a job seeker tag TgCS (for example, job seeker tag TgCS1) associated with the personal job history of a certain job seeker (for example, the first job seeker with job seeker ID: CU01) and a plurality of employer tags TgCL associated with a job offer (for example, job offer ID: CL01) are shown. In this example, as the employer tags TgCL, an employer tag TgCL11 "cloud", an employer tag TgCL12 "architecture design", an employer tag TgCL13 "SQL", and an employer tag TgCL14 "OS" are registered.

[0042] In the example shown in this figure, the distances from the job seeker tag TgCS are relatively close to the employer tag TgCL11 "cloud" and the employer tag TgCL12 "architecture design", and relatively far from the employer tag TgCL13 "SQL" and the employer tag TgCL14 "OS".

[0043] In this example, the tag determination unit 104 is set to display the employer tag TgCL11 "cloud" and the employer tag TgCL12 "architecture design" more prominently than the employer tag TgCL13 "SQL" and the employer tag TgCL14 "OS".

[0044] In the following description, an employer tag TgCL with a relatively short distance from the job seeker tag TgCS is also referred to as a "matching tag". An employer tag TgCL with a relatively long distance from the job seeker tag TgCS is also referred to as a "non-matching tag". In this case, it can also be said that the tag determination unit 104 highlights the matching tags and non-highlights the non-matching tags.

[0045] That is, the tag determination unit 104 highlights and displays the tags to be displayed on the job seeker terminal device 30 based on the distance between the employer tag TgCL and the job seeker tag TgCS.

[0046] (Step S124) Returning to FIG. 4, the display control unit 107 generates a job offer list screen P1 based on the job offer ticket extracted in step S122 and the highlighted display of the tags set in step S123. The display control unit 107 transmits the generated job offer list screen P1 to the job seeker terminal device 30. (Step S323) The job seeker terminal device 30 displays the job offer list screen P1 transmitted from the server 10 on the display unit 31. The job seeker checks the job offer list screen P1 displayed on the display unit 31.

[0047] FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of the job offer list screen P1 of the present embodiment. In the example shown in the figure, a first job offer ticket (job offer ticket ID: CL01) and a second job offer ticket (job offer ticket ID: CL02) are displayed. On the job offer list screen P1, a job type column P101, an employer tag column P102, and a favorite button P103 are displayed.

[0048] The favorite button P103 is a button image that is operated when the job seeker is interested (for example, when considering applying for a job offer ticket). The operation result of the favorite button P103 is notified to the employer terminal device 40 of the employer who registered the job offer ticket.

[0049] In the job type column P101, the job type, expected annual income, work location, etc. registered in the employment conditions of the job offer ticket information 21 are displayed. In the employer tag column P102, the employer tag TgCL of the job offer ticket information 21 is displayed. As described above, in the employer tag column P102, the employer tag TgCL is displayed based on the highlighted display set by the tag determination unit 104.

[0050] [Example of Highlight Display] The display control unit 107 performs the highlighted display of the tags displayed in the employer tag column P102 as follows, for example. (1) Attach a symbol indicating that it is a matching tag (for example, the check symbol shown in FIG. 8) to the matching tag to highlight the matching tag. (2) Differentiate the color of the match tag from that of the non-match tag, and attach a prominent color to the match tag to emphasize the match tag. (3) Make the non-match tag be displayed in a non-emphasized manner (for example, grayed out) to relatively emphasize the match tag. Note that the above-mentioned emphasized display is just an example, and as long as the match tag is relatively emphasized compared to the non-match tag, its form can be anything.

[0051] FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of the display form of the tags displayed in the adopter tag column P102 of the present embodiment. In this figure, tag 1 and tag 3 are match tags, and tag 2 and tag 4 are non-match tags. Generally, for various images displayed on the display unit 31, when the text to be displayed is in landscape writing described from left to right, the image arranged more to the left may have higher visibility than the image arranged more to the right. That is to say, it can also be said that the left side of the display unit 31 has a higher display order, and the right side of the display unit 31 has a lower display order.

[0052] In the case of FIG. [A], the display positions and display orders of the tags are mixed between match tags and non-match tags. In the case of FIG. [B], regarding the display positions of the tags, the match tags are arranged on the left side of the display unit 31, and the non-match tags are arranged on the right side of the display unit 31. Also, in the case of FIG. [B], regarding the display orders of the tags, the match tags are arranged at positions with a higher display order, and the non-match tags are arranged at positions with a lower display order. As shown in FIG. [B], the tag determination unit 104 emphasizes the display of the match tags by rearranging the adopter tags TgCL. In other words, the tag determination unit 104 emphasizes the display of the match tags by arranging the match tags in a left-packed manner among the adopter tags TgCL.

[0053] (Step S324) Return to FIG. 4, and the job seeker operates the job listing screen P1 to display the job details screen P2. For example, the job seeker taps on the job type column P101 to display the job details screen P2 of the corresponding job posting (e.g., job posting ID: CU01). When the job seeker terminal device 30 detects the display operation of the job details screen P2, it sends the job posting ID and the display request for the job details screen P2 to the server 10. (Step S125) The display control unit 107 searches for the job posting information 21 using the job posting ID received from the job seeker terminal device 30 as a search key, and obtains the detailed information of the job posting.

[0054] (Step S126) The tag determination unit 104 performs the setting of highlighting for the employer tag TgCL associated with the job posting in the same manner as in the case of step S123 described above.

[0055] (Step S127) The display control unit 107 generates the job details screen P2 based on the detailed information of the job posting obtained in step S125 and the highlighting of the tag set in step S126. The display control unit 107 sends the generated job details screen P2 to the job seeker terminal device 30. (Step S323) The job seeker terminal device 30 displays the job details screen P2 sent from the server 10 on the display unit 31. The job seeker checks the job details screen P2 displayed on the display unit 31.

[0056] FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of the job details screen P2 of the present embodiment. In the example shown in the figure, the detailed information about the first job posting (job posting ID: CL01) is displayed. On the job details screen P2, there are a job type and job content column P21, an ability and experience column P22, an aspiration and stance column P23, and an operation column P24.

[0057] In the job type and job content column P21, the detailed information of the job type registered in the job posting is displayed. Also, in the job type and job content column P21, a job content tag column P201 is displayed. On the ability / experience column P22, detailed information on the abilities and experiences required by the employer, which are registered in the job offer form, is displayed. Also, on the ability / experience column P22, the ability / experience tag column P202 is displayed. On the aspiration / stance column P23, detailed information on the aspirations and stances (e.g., the way of approaching work, the view on the balance between work and life, etc.) of the job seekers required by the employer, which are registered in the job offer form, is displayed. On the operation column P24, an operation button (the button of interest P203) similar to the button of interest P103 described above is displayed.

[0058] Regarding the employer tag TgCL in the job offer information 21 of this embodiment, the employer tag TgCL displayed in the job content tag column P201 and the employer tag TgCL displayed in the ability / experience tag column P202 can be registered individually.

[0059] Also in the job content tag column P201 and the ability / experience tag column P202, the matching tags are highlighted in the same way as the employer tag column P102 on the job offer list screen P1 described above. That is, the matching tag in the job content tag column P201 and the matching tag in the ability / experience tag column P202 are highlighted individually.

[0060] According to the employment support system 1 configured as described above, regarding the degree of match between the job history of the job seeker and the employment conditions of the employer, the job seeker can individually confirm the degree of match regarding the job type / job content and the degree of match regarding the abilities / experiences.

[0061] As described so far, the employment support system 1 of this embodiment highlights the employer tag TgCL that matches the job history of the job seeker on the job offer list screen P1. Therefore, when the job seeker views the job offer list screen P1, it becomes easier to distinguish the job offer forms with a high degree of match to their own job history. According to the employment support system 1 configured as described above, the convenience of the job seeker is improved. In addition, a job offer ticket with a high degree of match to the job seeker's own work history is more likely to motivate the action of trying to apply (that is, the operation of the button P103 that catches the eye, or the operation of the button P203 that catches the eye) compared to a job offer ticket with a low degree of match. According to the employment support system 1 configured as described above, it becomes easier to motivate a job seeker who has viewed the job list screen P1 to apply, and it is possible to activate the matching between the job seeker and the employer. Next, the flow of scouting after the job seeker operates the "button that catches the eye" will be described.

[0062] [Determination of scout transmission] FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of the flow of the operation of scouting in the present embodiment. (Step S331) The job seeker operates the button P103 that catches the eye, or the button P203 that catches the eye (hereinafter, also simply referred to as the "button that catches the eye"). When the job seeker terminal device 30 detects an operation on the button that catches the eye, it transmits the job seeker ID and the operation result of the button that catches the eye to the server 10.

[0063] From the perspective of the employer, a job seeker who has operated the button that catches the eye is a job seeker who is interested in the employer, and can also be said to be a job seeker who is a candidate for scouting. In the following description, a job seeker who has operated the button that catches the eye is also referred to as a candidate for scouting or simply a candidate.

[0064] (Step S131) The scouting processing unit 106 acquires the operation result of the button that catches the eye. There may be cases where the button that catches the eye is operated by a plurality of job seekers for an employer. The scouting processing unit 106 summarizes the operation results of the button that catches the eye from a plurality of job seekers for each employer. The display control unit 107 generates a list of candidates based on the operation results of the button that catches the eye summarized by the scouting processing unit 106. (Step S132) The display control unit 107 transmits the image of the generated list of candidates to the employer terminal device 40. (Step S431) The employer checks the list image of candidates displayed on the display unit 41.

[0065] (Step S432) The employer selects a candidate to be scouted from the list images of candidates. The employer performs a scouting transmission operation on the selected candidate. The employer terminal device 40 transmits a scouting request including the job offer ID of the employer who performed the scouting transmission, the job seeker ID of the candidate to be scouted, and the content of the scouting to the server 10.

[0066] Note that the scouting transmission may be a scouting email sent from the employer to an individual job seeker in the form of an email or a short message. That is, the information of the employer presented to the job seeker includes a scouting email sent from the employer to an individual job seeker.

[0067] (Step S133) The tag determination unit 104 determines the matching degree (i.e., the matching degree of the tags) between the job seeker who operated the concerned button and the employer who sent the scout.

[0068] More specifically, the job seeker information processing unit 102 receives the job offer ID and the scouting request from the employer terminal device 40. The job offer extraction unit 103 extracts the job offer corresponding to the received job offer ID from the job offers in the job offer information 21. The tag determination unit 104 determines the matching degree between the employer tag TgCL of the extracted job offer and the job seeker tag TgCS of the job seeker ID in the scouting request from the employer terminal device 40.

[0069] (Step S134) The scouting processing unit 106 determines whether to send the scout sent by the employer to the job seeker based on the matching degree determined in Step S133. (Step S135) The display control unit 107 transmits a scouting notification to the job seeker terminal device 30 for the scout determined to be transmitted in Step S134, and causes the display to show that there has been a scout.

[0070] FIG. 12 is a diagram showing an example of the scout list screen P3 of the present embodiment. The scout list screen P3 is a screen on which the situation regarding scouting between an employer and a job seeker is displayed in a list format. On the scout list screen P3, a scout screen P301 is displayed. The scout screen P301 is a screen indicating that there has been a scout notification. On the scout screen P301, information regarding scouting between a job seeker and an individual employer who sent the scout is displayed. For example, a part of the content of the scout from the employer is displayed on the scout screen P301.

[0071] Note that, on the scout screen P301, the determination result of the degree of match in step S133 (for example, "matches the desire") may be displayed. Also, on the scout screen P301, a new arrival display (for example, a scout notification) indicating that a new scout (or an unread scout) has been received may be provided.

[0072] (Step S332) Returning to FIG. 11, the job seeker checks the scout list screen P3 displayed on the display unit 31. When the job seeker wants to check the details of the scout, the job seeker operates the scout screen P301 to be the target of detailed confirmation. When the scout screen P301 is operated, the display control unit 107 displays a scout detail screen P4 for the scout.

[0073] FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an example of the scout detail screen P4 of the present embodiment. The scout detail screen P4 is a screen showing the content of the scout input by the employer in step S432. On the scout detail screen P4, a scout content column P41 and an operation column P42 are displayed. In the scout content column P41, scout content P401 indicating the text of the scout input by the employer is displayed. In the operation column P42, a button P402 to start communication is displayed.

[0074] (Step S333) Return to FIG. 11, and the job seeker operates the button P402 to start communication and enters a reply to the scout. The job seeker terminal device 30 transmits a scout reply request including the job seeker ID and the content of the reply to the scout to the server 10. The scout processing unit 106 of the server 10 notifies the employer terminal device 40 that there is a reply to the scout. The display control unit 107 causes the content of the reply to the scout to be displayed on the display unit 41 of the employer terminal device 40.

[0075] For some job seekers, they may receive scouts from multiple employers. For example, regarding the work history and experience of the job seeker, there may be high evaluations from many employers. In such cases, due to the influx of scouts from employers, some job seekers may feel it cumbersome. According to the employment support system 1 configured as described above, it is possible to suppress the presentation of scouts with relatively low matching degrees to job seekers. Therefore, according to the employment support system 1, it is possible to reduce the cumbersome feeling of job seekers due to too many scouts. That is, according to the employment support system 1, the convenience of job seekers can be improved.

[0076] Note that in the above description, the scout processing unit 106 has been described as not sending a scout notification when the matching degree is relatively low, but this is not limited thereto. The scout processing unit 106 may send a scout notification even when the matching degree is low. In this case, the scout processing unit 106 may arrange the scouts with high matching degrees at the upper position (for example, the upper part of the screen) and the scouts with low matching degrees at the lower position (for example, the lower part of the screen) on the scout list screen P3. In this case, on the scout list screen P3, the scouts with high matching degrees can be browsed by the job seeker without (or with a small amount of) scrolling the screen.

[0077] Further, in the scout list screen P3, the scout processing unit 106 may display the content of the scout on the job seeker terminal device 30 by performing a predetermined operation (for example, an operation on a button image such as "View More") for scouts with a relatively low matching degree.

[0078] Also, as described above, the scout processing unit 106 may have a function of performing a scout notification. In this case, for a scout with a relatively low matching degree, the scout processing unit 106 may display the content of the scout on the job seeker terminal device 30, but may not perform a scout notification.

[0079] With the employment support system 1 configured as described above, it is also possible to reduce the complexity for job seekers due to an excessive number of scouts. That is, according to the employment support system 1, the convenience for job seekers can be improved.

[0080] (Summary of the Embodiment) As described above, the employment support system 1 1: Emphasis display of tags with a high matching degree 2: Presentation of scouts according to the matching degree provides each of the functions.

[0081] (1: Emphasis display of tags with a high matching degree) The employment support system 1 determines the matching degree between the job seeker tag TgCS based on the job seeker's work history, etc. and the employer tag TgCL based on the employer's employment conditions, etc. The employment support system 1 highlights the tag image of the job offer ticket displayed on the display unit 31 of the job seeker terminal device 30 according to the determined matching degree. According to the employment support system 1 configured as described above, a job seeker can visually grasp to what extent their work history and the like match the employment conditions. Therefore, according to the employment support system 1, it is possible to make it easier for a job seeker to find a job offer that matches their work history and the like from a large number of job offers. Further, according to the employment support system 1, as a result of making it easier to find job offers, the communication between the job seeker and the employer becomes active, and it becomes easier to employ a job seeker who meets the employment conditions. That is, according to the employment support system 1, the convenience of job seekers and employers can be improved.

[0082] (2: Presentation of Scout According to Matching Degree) Based on the result of the above-described matching degree determination, the employment support system 1 gives lower priority to the scout between a job seeker and an employer who is determined to have a relatively low matching degree, and gives priority to the communication of the scout between a job seeker and an employer who is determined to have a relatively high matching degree. According to the employment support system 1 configured as described above, it is possible to send a scout notification when the matching degree is relatively low. That is, according to the employment support system 1, it is possible to reduce the complexity of job seekers due to too many scouts, and improve the convenience of job seekers.
