DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0011] (First embodiment) Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of a job recruitment management system 1 according to this embodiment. The job recruitment management system 1 comprises a job recruitment management system server 2, a job recruiter terminal 3, and job seeker terminals 4-1 to 4-n (n is a natural number). The job recruitment management system server 2, the job recruiter terminal 3, and the job seeker terminals 4-1 to 4-n communicate with each other via a network N1. The network N1 is, for example, the Internet, a mobile communications network, a WAN (Wide Area Network), or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0012] The job management system server 2 is a server that manages an online job information site. Job information is posted on the job information site. Job information is information that indicates job vacancies. The job information is registered by a job recruiter U1 using a job recruiter terminal 3.

[0013] Job seekers U2-1 to U2-n can apply for jobs using job seeker terminals 4-1 to 4-n, respectively. Job seekers U2-1 to U2-n each register their own information as job seeker information on a job information site in advance. When applying for a job, job seekers U2-1 to U2-n can each provide the job seeker U1 with the job seeker information they have registered in advance as a history.

[0014] In the job recruitment management system 1, the job recruiter U1 can send notifications to each of the job seekers U2-1 to U2-n via the job recruitment management system server 2 to encourage them to apply for a job. These notifications are also referred to as approaches. The job recruiter U1 browses the job seeker information registered on the job information site, and when he finds a job seeker who matches the job information among the job seekers U2-1 to U2-n, he sends a notification (approach) to that job seeker.

[0015] The job management system server 2 recommends candidates selected from job seekers U2-1 to U2-n to the job recruiter U1 based on the degree of matching between the job information and the job seeker information. The job recruiter U1 selects a recipient to whom a notification will be sent from the recommended candidates. The job recruiter U1 sends the notification to the selected recipient.

[0016] As an example, the job management system server 2 is a single computer. However, the job management system server 2 may be configured from multiple computers distributed over the network N1.

[0017] The recruiter terminal 3 is a terminal device used by the recruiter U1. The recruiter terminal 3 is, for example, a personal computer (PC), a smartphone, or a mobile terminal such as a tablet terminal.

[0018] Job seeker terminal 4-1 to job seeker terminal 4-n are terminal devices used by job seekers U2-1 to U2-n, respectively. Job seeker terminal 4-1 to job seeker terminal 4-n are, for example, mobile terminals such as PCs, smartphones, or tablet terminals.

[0019] Here, the job seeker terminals 4-1 to 4-n have the same functions. Therefore, in the following explanation, the job seeker terminal 4, which is any one of the job seeker terminals 4-1 to 4-n, may be described. Also, any one of the job seekers U2-1 to U2-n may be described as job seeker U2.

[0020] 2 is a diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of the job vacancy management system server 2 according to this embodiment. The job vacancy management system server 2 includes a processing unit 20, a storage unit 21, and a communication unit 22.

Each of these functional units is realized, for example, by a CPU loading a program read from a ROM (Read Only Memory) into a RAM (Random Access Memory) and executing processing in accordance with the program. The ROM and RAM are included in the storage unit 21.

[0022] The job information acquisition unit 200 acquires job information A1. The job information acquisition unit 200 acquires job information A1 input from the job recruiter terminal 3. The job information A1 is information about a job. The job information A1 includes, for example, job type, company information, salary, working conditions, and application conditions.

[0023] The job seeker information acquisition unit 201 acquires job seeker information B1. The job seeker information acquisition unit 201 acquires job seeker information B1 input from the job seeker terminal 4. The job seeker information B1 is information about a job seeker U2. The job seeker information B1 includes, for example, age, annual income, educational background, occupation, place of residence, qualifications, special skills, and hobbies.

[0024] The candidate selection unit 202 selects candidates to whom a notification is to be sent from among the job seekers U2 based on the degree of matching between the job information A1 and the job seeker information B1. The recipient is the job seeker U2 to whom a notification (also referred to as an approach) encouraging the applicant to apply for the job is to be sent. The candidate selection unit 202 generates a proposal list C1 for each job information A1. The proposal list C1 is a list showing the candidates selected by the candidate selection unit 202.

[0025] The proposing unit 203 proposes (also referred to as recommending) the candidates selected by the candidate selecting unit 202. Here, the proposing unit 203 proposes the candidates by displaying the proposal list C1 generated by the candidate selecting unit 202 on the display output unit 205.

[0026] The operation receiving unit 204 receives various operations from the job recruiter terminal 3 or the job seeker terminal 4. The operation receiving unit 204 receives, for example, an operation to select a recipient from among the candidates proposed by the proposing unit 203.

[0027] The display output unit 205 outputs various types of information to be displayed by the terminal to the terminal. The display output unit 205 outputs various types of information to be displayed by the job recruiter terminal 3 to the job recruiter terminal 3. The display output unit 205 outputs various types of information to be displayed on the job seeker terminal 4 to the job seeker terminal 4. The display output unit 205 outputs, for example, information on candidates proposed by the proposing unit 203 to the job recruiter terminal 3.

[0028] The notification sending unit 206 sends a notification (approach) to the selected recipient. If the recipient is the job seeker U2, the notification sending unit 206 sends the notification to the job seeker terminal 4.

[0029] The application information acquisition unit 207 acquires application information D1. The application information acquisition unit 207 acquires application information D1 from the job seeker terminal 4. The application information D1 is information about an application from a job seeker.

[0030] The text generation unit 208 generates text to be sent to the job seeker U2. The text generation unit 208 generates text for approaching the job seeker U2 based on approach template information E1. The approach template information E1 is information indicating a template of text for approaching the job seeker U2. The text generation unit 208 also generates text for responding to the application from the job seeker U2 based on response template information F1. The response template information F1 is information indicating a template of text for the job seeker U2's response.

[0031] The applicant management unit 209 manages applications from job seekers. The applicant management unit 209 performs this management by generating applicant management information G1. The applicant management information G1 is information indicating, for example, the applicant, the job information applied for, information indicating the interview schedule, and the response status. The applicant management information G1 is generated based on the application information D1, the job information A1, and the response status of the recruiter U1 toward the applicant.

[0032] Furthermore, if the job seeker indicated by the application information D1 is a recipient to whom an approach has been sent, the applicant management unit 209 displays information indicating that the job seeker is a recipient on the display unit 32 provided in the recruiter terminal 3. The applicant management information G1 includes information indicating whether the applicant is a job seeker U2 to whom an approach has been sent.

[0033] The storage unit 21 stores various types of information. The information stored in the storage unit 21 includes job information A1, job seeker information B1, proposal list C1, application information D1, approach template information E1, response template information F1, and applicant management information G1. The storage unit 21 is configured using a storage device such as a magnetic hard disk drive or a semiconductor storage device.

[0034] The communication unit 22 transmits and receives various types of information via the network N1. The communication unit 22 communicates with the job recruiter terminal 3 and the job seeker terminal 4 via the network N1. The communication unit 22 includes a communication interface (I / F) for communicating via the network N1.

[0035] 3 is a diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of the job recruiter terminal 3 according to this embodiment. The job recruiter terminal 3 includes a processing unit 30, an operation unit 31, a display unit 32, a communication unit 33, and a storage unit 34.

[0036] The processing unit 30 performs various processes. The processes performed by the processing unit 30 are realized, for example, by the CPU loading a program read from the ROM into the RAM and executing the process in accordance with the program. The ROM and RAM are included in the storage unit 34.

[0037] The operation unit 31 accepts various operations from the job recruiter U1. The operation unit 31 includes, for example, a touch panel, operation buttons, a mouse, or a keyboard. If the operation unit 31 includes a touch panel, the operation unit 31 may be integrated with the display unit 32.

[0038] The display unit 32 displays various types of information and includes, for example, a liquid crystal display or an organic electroluminescence (EL) display.

[0039] The communication unit 33 sends and receives various types of information via the network N1. The communication unit 33 communicates with the job management system server 2 via the network N1. The communication unit 33 includes a communication I / F for communicating via the network N1.

[0040] The storage unit 34 stores various types of information and is configured using a storage device such as a magnetic hard disk drive or a semiconductor storage device.

[0041] 4 is a diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of the job seeker terminal 4 according to this embodiment. The job seeker terminal 4 includes a processing unit 40, an operation unit 41, a display unit 42, a communication unit 43, and a storage unit 44.

[0042] The processing unit 40 performs various processes. The processes performed by the processing unit 40 are realized, for example, by the CPU loading a program read from the ROM into the RAM and executing the processes in accordance with the program. The ROM and RAM are included in the storage unit 44.

[0043] The operation unit 41 accepts various operations from the job seeker U2. The operation unit 41 includes, for example, a touch panel, operation buttons, a mouse, or a keyboard. When the operation unit 41 includes a touch panel, the operation unit 41 may be integrated with the display unit 42.

[0044] The display unit 42 displays various types of information and includes, for example, a liquid crystal display or an organic EL display.

[0045] The communication unit 43 transmits and receives various types of information via the network N1. The communication unit 43 communicates with the job management system server 2 via the network N1. The communication unit 43 includes a communication I / F for communicating via the network N1.

[0046] The storage unit 44 stores various types of information and is configured using a storage device such as a magnetic hard disk drive or a semiconductor storage device.

[0047] Next, with reference to FIGS. 5 to 12, the flow of processing in the job management system 1 will be described along with examples of screens displayed on the job recruiter terminal 3 and the job seeker terminal 4. FIG. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the flow of processing in the job vacancy management system 1 according to this embodiment.

[0048] Step S10: The job seeker terminal 4 accepts an operation by the job seeker U2 to input job seeker information B1. The job seeker U2 inputs the job seeker information B1 via the operation unit 41. The job seeker terminal 4 transmits the input job seeker information B1 to the job vacancy management system server 2.

[0049] Step S20: The job recruitment management system server 2 registers the job seeker information B1 received from the job seeker terminal 4. Here, the job seeker information acquisition unit 201 acquires the job seeker information B1 received from the job seeker terminal 4. The job seeker information acquisition unit 201 stores the acquired job seeker information B1 in the memory unit 21, thereby registering the job seeker information B1.

[0050] Step S30: The job recruiter U1 begins using the job information site. As described above, the job information site is managed by the job management system server 2. The job recruiter terminal 3 accesses the job management system server 2. A page of the job information site is displayed on the display unit 32 provided on the job recruiter terminal 3. The job recruiter U1 uses the job recruiter terminal 3 to register an account on the job information site.

[0051] Step S40: The recruiter terminal 3 accepts an operation by the recruiter U1 to input the job information A1. The recruiter U1 inputs the job information A1 via the operation unit 31. The recruiter terminal 3 transmits the input job information A1 to the job management system server 2.

[0052] Step S50: The job management system server 2 registers the job information A1 received from the job recruiter terminal 3 and determines the publication medium (site). Here, the job information acquisition unit 200 registers the job information A1 by storing the job information A1 in the memory unit 21. The job information acquisition unit 200 also determines the publication medium in which to publish the job information A1.

[0053] Step S60: The job management system server 2 calculates the degree of matching between the job information A1 and the job seeker information B1, and generates a proposal list C1. Here, the candidate selection unit 202 calculates the degree of matching between the job information A1 and the job seeker information B1. Based on the calculated degree of matching, the candidate selection unit 202 selects candidates from among the job seekers U2 to whom an approach will be sent. The candidate selection unit 202 generates a proposal list C1 indicating the selected candidates. The candidate selection unit 202 stores the generated proposal list C1 in the memory unit 21.

[0054] The candidate selection unit 202 may select a predetermined number of candidates in descending order of matching degree, for example. In another example, the candidate selection unit 202 may select candidates whose matching degree is equal to or greater than a predetermined value. When selecting candidates whose matching degree is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the candidate selection unit 202 may set an upper limit on the number of candidates to be selected.

[0055] Here, various machine learning algorithms are used as the algorithms used by the candidate selection unit 202 to calculate the matching degree. Note that the trained models used in the machine learning are stored in advance in the storage unit 21 (not shown in FIG. 2).

[0056] The explanatory variables for calculating the matching degree are, for example, one or more pieces of information included in the job information A1 and one or more pieces of information included in the job seeker information B1. In addition to the information included in the job information A1 and the job seeker information B1, the explanatory variables may also include an operation log by the job recruiter U1 on the job information site, an operation log by the job seeker U2, and a webpage browsing history. Furthermore, when calculating the matching degree, a factor analysis may be performed to determine which of the explanatory variables is the basis for the high or low matching degree.

[0057] An operation log by a job recruiter U1 on a job information site includes, for example, information on applicants viewed by the job recruiter U1 and information on job seekers to whom the job recruiter U1 has approached in the past. An operation log by a job seeker U2 on a job information site includes information on job pages viewed in the past and information on jobs to which the job seeker U2 has applied in the past. A web page browsing history includes, for example, information on the history of web pages that the job seeker U2 regularly views in addition to the job information site.

[0058] The objective variables when calculating the degree of matching are, for example, the application results for a job offer, the hiring results for a job offer, or the post-hiring evaluation for a job offer. The application results for a job offer are the result of whether or not there was an application for the job offer after an approach was sent. The hiring results for a job offer are the result of whether or not a person was hired after applying for the job offer. The post-hiring evaluation for a job offer is, for example, the result of whether or not the job seeker U2 met the evaluation that the recruiter U1 expected of the job seeker U2 before the approach after being hired for the job offer.

[0059] The objective variable used by the candidate selection unit 202 to calculate the degree of matching may be selected by the recruiter U1. For example, for a job posting that seeks to hire a large number of people or a job posting where hiring is urgent, the hiring rate is set as the objective variable used to calculate the degree of matching. Furthermore, for a job posting that seeks to hire someone skilled in a specific skill, the post-hiring evaluation is set as the objective variable.

[0060] The processes of steps S10 and S20 described above are repeatedly executed every time job seeker information B1 is input while the job management system 1 is operating. Also, the processes of steps S40 and S50 are repeatedly executed every time job information A1 is input while the job management system 1 is operating.

[0061] The process of calculating the matching degree and generating the proposal list C1 in step S60 is executed, for example, periodically. "Executed periodically" means, for example, that the process is executed a predetermined number of times (twice a day, for example) for a predetermined number of days, or at predetermined time intervals. In other words, the proposal list C1 is updated periodically.

[0062] The process of calculating the matching degree and generating the proposal list C1 in step S60 may be executed immediately when at least one of the job information A1 and the job seeker information B1 is newly input. In other words, the proposal list C1 is updated immediately when at least one of the job information A1 and the job seeker information B1 is newly input.

[0063] Step S70: The recruiter terminal 3 accepts an operation to select a job offer that the recruiter wishes to approach from the list of available job offers. The recruiter U1 performs this operation via the operation unit 31. The list of available job offers is a list showing registered job information A1. The list of available job offers is displayed on the available job offer list screen P1 displayed on the display unit 32.

[0064] Fig. 6 is a diagram showing an example of an approachable job offer list screen P1 according to this embodiment. In the example shown in Fig. 6, the approachable job offer list P11 shows approachable job offers P11-1 and approachable job offers P11-2, which are information corresponding to two pieces of job information A1. The information displayed as the approachable job offer list P11 from the job information A1 includes, for example, the job offer number and the job details.

[0065] The available job listing screen P1 displays a job selection button. A job selection button is displayed for each available job displayed in the available job listing. In the example shown in FIG. 6, a job selection button P12 and a job selection button P13 are displayed. The recruiter U1 presses (clicks or taps) the job selection button corresponding to the job they wish to approach via the operation unit 31.

[0066] When the job selection button is pressed, the proposal unit 203 outputs a proposal list C1 for the job information A1 corresponding to the job selection button to the display output unit 205. The display unit 32 displays the proposal list C1 within the proposal screen P2.

[0067] Fig. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the proposal screen P2 according to this embodiment. In the example shown in Fig. 7, candidate information P21-1 to candidate information P21-4 are displayed as candidate information P21. Candidate information P21-1 to candidate information P21-4 correspond to four candidates included in proposal list C1, respectively.

[0068] The candidate information P21 is information that indicates a candidate. The candidate information P21 is generated based on the job seeker information B1. In the example shown in FIG. 7, the candidate information P21 displays information such as age, annual income, educational background, and current place of employment. In addition, the candidate information P21 displays information indicating factors that have a high degree of matching as "matched tags."

[0069] Here, the proposing unit 203 causes the display unit 32 to display information about the candidates selected by the candidate selecting unit 202 in an order based on the matching degree. The proposing unit 203 also causes the display unit 32 to display a predetermined number of pieces of information about the candidates selected by the candidate selecting unit 202 on one page of the screen.

[0070] As an example, the proposal list C1 includes 50 candidates. As an example, the proposal unit 203 displays information on 10 of the 50 candidates on one page of the screen. In the proposal screen P2 shown in FIG. 7, a portion of the one page of the screen is displayed. In the proposal screen P2, of the information on the 10 candidates displayed on the one page of the screen, the information on four candidates is displayed as candidate information P21-1 to candidate information P21-4. When the proposal screen P2 is scrolled down from the state shown in FIG. 7, the candidate information on the remaining six candidates is displayed.

[0071] A predetermined number of candidates are displayed on one page of the screen, for example, in descending order of matching degree. This configuration makes it easier for the recruiter U1 to compare candidates with similar matching degrees on one page of the screen. For example, if only one candidate is displayed on one page of the screen, the user must switch screens to check the information of other candidates, which is cumbersome. Furthermore, if the candidates are displayed without being based on matching degree, it becomes difficult to understand how well the displayed candidates match the job information A1.

[0072] The matching degree may be displayed on the proposal screen P2. In this case, the matching degree may be displayed, for example, as a numerical value (such as a percentage) or as a predetermined number of classes (such as "very high," "high," and "average").

[0073] The suggestion unit 203 may display the information of the candidates selected by the candidate selection unit 202 on the display unit 32 without based on the degree of matching. For example, the suggestion unit 203 may display the information of the candidates in the order in which the job seeker information B1 of the candidates was registered. However, as in the present embodiment, it is easier to identify candidates who match the job information A1 if the information of the candidates is displayed in order of the degree of matching.

[0074] In this embodiment, the upper limit of the number of pieces of candidate information to be displayed on one screen page is set in advance by the job management system server 2. It is considered that there is a limit to the number of candidates that one job recruiter U1 can handle. Therefore, it is preferable that the upper limit of the number of pieces of candidate information to be displayed on one screen page be set based on the estimated number of candidates that one job recruiter U1 can handle.

[0075] The proposing unit 203 may display information on all candidates included in the proposal list C1 on one screen page. The number of pieces of candidate information to be displayed on one screen page may also be set by the job recruiter U1. In this case, the job recruiter U1 sets the number of pieces of candidate information to be displayed on one screen page, for example, according to his / her own processing status and processing capacity.

[0076] Furthermore, on the proposal screen P2, approach buttons P22-1 to P22-4 and hide buttons P23-1 to P23-4 are displayed for each of the candidate information P21-1 to P21-4. The approach buttons are buttons for selecting a target to send an approach to from the proposal list C1. The hide buttons are buttons for selecting candidates included in the proposal list C1 that you do not want to display on the proposal screen. Candidates you do not want to display on the proposal screen are candidates who are not suitable as targets to send an approach to.

[0077] Step S80: The recruiter terminal 3 accepts an operation to select a target to send an approach to from the proposal list C1. The job seeker U2 selects a target to send to from the proposal list C1 by pressing the approach button corresponding to the target via the operation unit 31. When the approach button is pressed, the display output unit 205 outputs a send screen P3 to the recruiter terminal 3. The display unit 32 displays the send screen P3.

[0078] FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of the send screen P3 according to this embodiment. The send screen P3 displays candidate information P31, approach target job information P32, a send message P33, a send button P34, and a cancel send button P35. The recruiter U1 confirms the candidate information P31, approach target job information P32, and send message P33. The send button P34 is a button for sending the approach. The cancel send button P35 is a button for canceling the sending of the approach.

[0079] Here, the outgoing message P33 is generated by the text generator 208. The text generator 208 generates the outgoing message P33 based on the approach template information E1. Note that the outgoing message P33 may be edited by the recruiter U1 before sending the approach.

[0080] The recruiter terminal 3 accepts an operation to send an approach. The job seeker U2 presses the send button via the operation unit 31 to send the approach to the recruitment management system server 2.

[0081] In this embodiment, an example has been described in which a target is selected by pressing an approach button corresponding to each target, and an approach is sent to the target. That is, an example has been described in which an approach is sent for each target, but this is not limiting. Approaches may be sent collectively for multiple targets.

[0082] In this case, for example, a check box is provided together with or instead of the approach button. First, one or more recipients are selected by checking the check boxes corresponding to the recipients. Next, a button (such as a "batch send button") for sending the approaches to the selected recipients all at once is pressed, and the approaches are sent to the selected recipients all at once.

[0083] Alternatively, the recruiter U1 may register candidate information of interest and send approaches at a desired time. In this case, for example, a "favorite" button may be provided for each candidate information, and the candidate information may be registered by pressing the button. Approaches may be sent to candidates corresponding to the registered candidate information on a per-candidate basis, or approaches may be sent to all registered candidates at once.

[0084] Step S90: The job management system server 2 sends the approach. When the job recruiter U1 presses the send button via the operation unit 31, the notification sending unit 206 sends the approach to the job seeker terminal 4 used by the recipient.

[0085] When the transmission of the approach is completed, the notification transmission unit 206 causes the display output unit 205 to output a transmission completion screen to the recruiter terminal 3. The display unit 32 displays the transmission completion screen. An example of the transmission completion screen P4 is shown in Figure 9.

[0086] Here, the text generation unit 208 generates text for approaching the job seeker U2 based on the approach template information E1. The approach includes text generated based on the approach template information E1. Note that the text included in the approach may be edited by the recruiter U1.

[0087] In this embodiment, as an example, a candidate who has sent an approach regarding a certain job information A1 is excluded from the proposal list C1 as a candidate regarding the job information A1. Therefore, an approach regarding the certain job information A1 is sent to one candidate only once.

[0088] Note that a candidate who has sent an approach for a certain job posting A1 does not need to be excluded from the proposal list C1 as a candidate for the job posting A1. In other words, an approach for a certain job posting A1 may be sent multiple times to a single candidate. When an approach for a certain job posting A1 is sent multiple times to a single candidate, the text for the approach generated based on the approach template information E1 may be changed depending on the number of times the approach is sent. In this case, the text generation unit 208 changes the text for the approach to the job seeker U2 based on the approach template information E1 depending on the number of times the approach is sent. The approach template information E1 includes templates created in advance depending on the number of times the approach is sent.

[0089] Step S100: The job seeker terminal 4 receives an approach from the job vacancy management system server 2. The display unit 42 displays the received approach. Figure 10 shows an approach reception screen Q1 as an example of a received approach. On the approach reception screen Q1, the sending message P33 that was displayed on the above-mentioned sending screen is displayed as the approach.

[0090] Step S110: The job seeker terminal 4 transmits application information D1 to the job management system server 2. When the job seeker U2 applies for a job that the approach has encouraged them to apply for, they use the job seeker terminal 4 to access the publication medium (site) on which the job information A1 for that job is posted. A link to access the publication medium is included, for example, in the message received as the approach. The display unit 42 displays the application screen Q2 posted on the publication medium. The application screen Q2 shown in FIG. 11 is an example of a screen for sending application information D1.

[0091] Step S120: The job management system server 2 registers the application information D1 received from the job seeker terminal 4. Here, the application information acquisition unit 207 acquires the application information D1 received from the job seeker terminal 4. The application information acquisition unit 207 stores the acquired application information D1 in the memory unit 21, thereby registering the application information D1.

[0092] Step S130: The job management system server 2 displays an applicant list screen. The display output unit 205 outputs the applicant list screen P5 to the job recruiter terminal 3. The display unit 32 displays the applicant list screen P5.

[0093] Here, if the job seeker indicated by the acquired application information D1 is the target of the approach, the applicant management unit 209 causes information indicating that the job seeker is the target of the approach to be displayed on the display unit 32. The applicant management unit 209 causes the display unit 32 to display, via the display output unit 205, information indicating that the job seeker is the target of the approach.

[0094] 12 is a diagram showing an example of the applicant list screen P5 according to this embodiment. The applicant list screen P5 displays applicant management information P51-1 to applicant management information P51-4 and an approached tag P52 as applicant management information G1.

[0095] Applicant management information G1 is information for managing responses to applicants. In the example shown in Fig. 12, applicant management information G1 displays information indicating the applicant, job information applied for, information indicating interview dates, and response status.

[0096] On the applicant list screen P5, the display unit 32 displays a predetermined number of applicant management information G1 for all applicants on one page of the screen. As an example, the display unit 32 displays applicant management information G1 for 10 applicants out of all applicants on one page of the screen. On the applicant list screen P5 shown in FIG. 12, a portion of one page of the screen is displayed. On the applicant list screen P5, of the applicant management information G1 for 10 applicants displayed on one page of the screen, information on four candidates is displayed as applicant management information P51-1 to applicant management information P51-4. When the applicant list screen P5 is scrolled down from the state shown in FIG. 12, candidate information for the remaining six candidates is displayed.

[0097] The applicant management information G1 also includes information indicating whether the applicant is a job seeker U2 to whom an approach has been sent. In the example shown in FIG. 12, this information is displayed as an approached tag P52. If the applicant is a job seeker U2 to whom an approach has been sent, the information indicating the applicant in the applicant management information G1 displays the approached tag P52. In the example shown in FIG. 12, the applicant corresponding to the applicant management information P51-1 is the job seeker U2 to whom an approach has been sent. On the other hand, the applicants corresponding to each of the applicant management information P51-2 to applicant management information P51-4 are not the job seeker U2 to whom an approach has been sent.

[0098] Here, the applicant management unit 209 displays the applicant management information G1 on the display unit 32 on the applicant list screen P5, as an example, in the order in which the application information D1 was registered. It is not desirable for too much time to pass between the time an application is made and the time an applicant is responded to. By displaying the applicant management information G1 on the applicant list screen P5 in the order in which the application information D1 was registered, it is possible to prevent a situation in which too much time passes between the time an application is made and the time an applicant is responded to.

[0099] If a predetermined period of time (e.g., three business days) has passed since the application was submitted and a message for responding to the application has been sent, the applicant management unit 209 may display an alert on the display unit 32 to prompt the recruiter U1 to respond to the applicant. The alert may be a message ("Please respond!") or a mark.

[0100] On the other hand, the applicant management unit 209 may display the applicant management information G1 on the display unit 32 in the reverse order (i.e., in order of most recent) to the order in which the application information D1 was registered on the applicant list screen P5. By displaying the applicant management information G1 in order of most recent on the applicant list screen P5, the job recruiter U1 can more easily notice new applications. For job seekers U2 to whom an approach has already been sent, the applicant management information G1 may be displayed in order of matching degree on the applicant list screen P5.

[0101] The applicant list screen P5 may be provided with a function for screening applicants based on the conditions desired by the recruiter U1. In the example shown in Figure 12, the applicant list screen P5 is provided with a search function for performing such screening.

[0102] After receiving the application information D1, the job recruiter U1 can confirm on the applicant list screen P5 that the application is from the approached job seeker U2 by using the approached tag P52. The job recruiter U1 then sends the applicant a message in response to the application and arranges an interview date, etc. This concludes the explanation of the process flow in the job management system 1.

[0103] The text generation unit 208 may change the template for generating text to respond to an application from a job seeker U2 depending on whether the job seeker indicated by the application information D1 is the recipient of an approach. In this case, the response template information F1 includes at least two types of templates: a template for responding to an application from a job seeker U2 who has sent an approach, and a template for responding to an application from a job seeker U2 who has not sent an approach.

[0104] As described above, the job vacancy management system 1 according to this embodiment includes the candidate selection unit 202, the proposal unit 203, the operation reception unit 204, and the notification transmission unit 206. The candidate selection unit 202 selects candidates from among the job seekers U2 to whom a notification (approach) encouraging them to apply for the job is to be sent based on the degree of matching between the job information A1, which is information about the job, and the job seeker information B1, which is information about the job seeker. The proposing unit 203 proposes the selected candidate. The operation receiving unit 204 receives an operation to select a transmission target from among the proposed candidates. The notification sending unit 206 sends a notification (approach) to the selected recipient.

[0105] With this configuration, in the job management system 1 of this embodiment, when sending a notification encouraging applications for a job, candidates to whom the notification should be sent can be selected based on the degree of matching between the job information A1 and the job seeker information B1, thereby reducing the burden on the job recruiter.

[0106] The job vacancy management system 1 according to this embodiment also includes a notification sending unit 206, an application information acquisition unit 207, and an applicant management unit 209. The notification sending unit 206 sends a notification (approach) to a recipient to encourage the recipient to apply for a job offer. The application information acquisition unit 207 acquires application information D1, which is information about an application from a job seeker U2. If the job seeker U2 indicated by the application information D1 is the recipient of the notification (approach), the applicant management unit 209 displays information indicating that the job seeker U2 is the recipient (in this embodiment, the approached tag P52) on the display unit (in this embodiment, the display unit 32 provided on the recruiter terminal 3).

[0107] With this configuration, the recruitment management system 1 according to this embodiment can identify whether an applicant is an applicant to whom a notification has already been sent when sending a notification encouraging the applicant to apply for a job, thereby reducing the workload of the recruiter U1. Here, it is considered necessary for the recruiter U1 to respond particularly carefully to applicants to whom an approach has already been sent. If the "approached" tag is not displayed, the recruiter U1 must check the response history to determine whether the applicant is an applicant to whom an approach has already been sent. The recruitment management system 1 according to this embodiment displays the "approached" tag, thereby reducing the workload of the recruiter U1.

[0108] In this embodiment, an example has been described in which the job management system server 2 selects and proposes to the recruiter U1 the candidate to whom the approach is to be sent, but this is not limiting. The job management system server 2 does not have to select the candidate to whom the approach is to be sent and propose it to the recruiter U1. In this case, the recruiter U1 searches for the candidate to whom the approach is to be sent by browsing the job seeker information B1 registered on the job information site and sends the candidate to whom the approach is to be sent. In cases in which the job management system server 2 does not propose the candidate to whom the approach is to be sent, and in order to reduce the burden on the recruiter U1, after the job application information D1 is acquired, if the job seeker U2 indicated in the application information D1 is the candidate to whom the approach is to be sent, it is preferable that an approached tag P52 be displayed on the display unit 32 as information indicating that the job seeker U2 is the candidate to whom the approach is to be sent.

[0109] In the present embodiment, after the application information D1 is acquired, if the job seeker U2 indicated by the application information D1 is a target to which an approach has been sent, an approached tag P52 is displayed on the display unit 32 as information indicating that the job seeker U2 is the target, but this is not limiting. The approached tag P52 does not have to be displayed on the display unit 32.

[0110] (Second embodiment) The second embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. In the first embodiment, a case where the target of the approach is selected by the recruiter U1 from among the candidates proposed based on the degree of matching is described. In this embodiment, a case where the candidate is selected based on the degree of matching and the approach is automatically sent to the candidate is described. The same components as those in the first embodiment described above are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description of the same components and operations may be omitted.

[0111] The recruitment management system according to this embodiment will be referred to as a recruitment management system 1a. The configuration of the recruitment management system 1a is the same as that of the recruitment management system 1, except that a recruitment management system server 2a is provided instead of the recruitment management system server 2.

[0112] 13 is a diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of a job vacancy management system server 2a according to this embodiment. The job vacancy management system server 2a includes a processing unit 10a, a storage unit 21, and a communication unit 22.

[0113] The processing unit 20a includes a job information acquisition unit 200, a job seeker information acquisition unit 201, a candidate selection unit 202a, a proposal unit 203, an operation reception unit 204, a display output unit 205, a notification transmission unit 206a, an application information acquisition unit 207, a text generation unit 208, an applicant management unit 209, and an automatic transmission setting unit 210a. Comparing the job management system server 2a (FIG. 13) according to this embodiment with the job management system server 2 (FIG. 2) according to the first embodiment, the candidate selection unit 202a, the notification transmission unit 206a, and the automatic transmission setting unit 210a are different. The functions of the other components (job information acquisition unit 200, job seeker information acquisition unit 201, proposal unit 203, operation reception unit 204, display output unit 205, application information acquisition unit 207, text generation unit 208, and applicant management unit 209) are the same as those of the first embodiment.

[0114] The candidate selection unit 202a selects a recipient from among the job seekers U2 to whom a notification encouraging them to apply for the job is to be sent, based on the degree of matching between the job information A1 and the job seeker information B1. The candidate selection unit 202a is an example of a recipient selection unit.

[0115] The notification sending unit 206a sends an approach to the recipient selected by the candidate selecting unit 202a. In this embodiment, the notification sending unit 206a sends an approach for a job vacancy for which the automatic approach function is set to on, regardless of the operation (pressing the send button) by the job recruiter U1.

[0116] The automatic transmission setting unit 210a sets whether or not to send an approach to the recipient selected by the candidate selection unit 202a. In this embodiment, as an example, the automatic transmission setting unit 210a sets whether or not to send an approach to the recipient for each job posting. In other words, in this embodiment, the automatic approach function is turned on or off for each job posting.

[0117] 14 is a diagram showing an example of the processing flow in the job vacancy management system 1 according to this embodiment. Note that the processing from step S210 to step S250 and step S290 to step S320 is similar to the processing from step S10 to step S50 and step S100 to step S130 in FIG. 5, and therefore description thereof will be omitted.

[0118] Step S260: The recruiter terminal 3 accepts an operation to turn on the automatic approach function from the approachable job list. The recruiter U1 performs this operation for the desired approachable job list via the operation unit 31. The automatic transmission setting unit 210a sets the approachable job for which the automatic approach function has been set to on as the target for sending approaches to the candidate selected by the candidate selection unit 202a. Note that, as an example, the automatic approach function is set to off for all job openings by default.

[0119] 15 is a diagram showing an example of an approachable job offer list screen P6 according to this embodiment. In the example shown in Fig. 15, the approachable job offer list P61 shows approachable job offers P61-1 and approachable job offers P61-2, which are information corresponding to two pieces of job information A1.

[0120] An automatic approach setting button is displayed on the approachable job listing screen P6. The automatic approach setting button is displayed for each approachable job listed in the approachable job listing. In the example shown in FIG. 15, an automatic approach setting button P62-1 and an automatic approach setting button P62-2 are displayed. The recruiter U1 presses (clicks or taps) via the operation unit 31 the automatic approach setting button corresponding to the job for which the automatic approach function is to be turned on.

[0121] 15, the automatic approach function is set to OFF for approachable job offer P61-1, and the automatic approach function is set to ON for approachable job offer P61-2. The approachable job offer list screen P6 displays information indicating whether the automatic approach function is set to ON or OFF.

[0122] Step S270: The job management system server 2a calculates the degree of matching between the job information A1 and the job seeker information B1, and generates a proposal list C1. Here, the candidate selection unit 202a selects recipients from among the job seekers U2 to whom a notification encouraging them to apply for the job is to be sent, based on the degree of matching between the job information A1 and the job seeker information B1. The candidate selection unit 202a generates a proposal list C1 that indicates the selected recipients. The candidate selection unit 202a stores the generated proposal list C1 in the memory unit 21.

[0123] In this embodiment, unlike the first embodiment, the proposal list C1 is not a list of candidates to suggest to the recruiter U1 to send an approach to for job openings for which the automatic approach function is set to on, but a list of recipients to whom an approach will be automatically sent.

[0124] Step S280: The job management system server 2a sends the approach. The notification sending unit 206a sends the approach to the job seeker terminal 4 used by the recipient. For job openings for which the automatic approach function is set to on, the notification sending unit 206a automatically sends the approach to all candidates included in the proposal list C1. The approach includes text generated based on the approach template information E1.

[0125] The automatic transmission of the approach by the notification transmission unit 206a is executed, for example, periodically. Executing periodically means, for example, executing a predetermined number of times (twice a day, for example) for a predetermined number of days, or executing at predetermined time intervals.

[0126] The notification sending unit 206a may send the notification when the job recruiter U1 presses the send button via the operation unit 31. In this case, the job seeker U2 to whom the approach is sent is automatically selected, but the time when the approach is sent is selected by the job seeker U2.

[0127] In addition, if one candidate is highly matched to multiple job postings, multiple approaches may be sent to the recipient in a short period of time. In this case, it is expected that the recipient will not be able to handle all of the multiple approaches. Therefore, the notification sending unit 206a may send a predetermined number of approaches or less to a recipient selected in duplicate for multiple job postings A1. In other words, an upper limit may be set on the number of approaches sent to a recipient selected in duplicate for multiple job postings A1. The upper limit on the number of approaches sent may be an upper limit for a predetermined period of time. For example, the number of approaches sent to one recipient may be set to up to three per day.

[0128] In addition, for approachable job offers for which the automatic approach function is not set to on in the processing of step S260, from step S260 onwards, each of the processes from step S70 to step S130 of the processing in the job management system 1 of the first embodiment (Figure 5) is executed. This concludes the explanation of the process flow in the job posting management system 1a.

[0129] In this embodiment, the automatic approach function is turned on or off for each job offer, so there are cases where the recipient is selected automatically and cases where the recipient is selected by the recruiter U1. When the job seeker indicated by the job seeker information B1 is the recipient to whom an approach has been sent, the applicant management unit 209 may display information indicating that the job seeker is the recipient on the display unit 32 in different formats depending on whether the recipient was selected automatically or by the recruiter U1.

[0130] 16 is a diagram showing an example of an applicant list screen P7 according to a modified example of this embodiment. Applicant management information G1 includes applicant management information P71-1 to applicant management information P71-4, as well as approached tags P72-1 and P72-2.

[0131] In the approached tag P72-1 and the approached tag P72-2, for example, the displayed text indicates whether the approach was automatically sent. The approached tag P72-1 displays the text "automatic approach completed." The approached tag P72-2 displays the text "manual approach completed." Note that the approached tag may also indicate whether the approach was automatically sent by color, shape, or the like.

[0132] In this embodiment, an example in which the automatic approach function is set to on or off for each job posting has been described, but this is not limited to this. The automatic approach function may be set for each of multiple job postings. In this case, for example, the recruiter U1 pre-selects multiple job postings for which the automatic approach function will be set in common as a group. The multiple job postings for which the automatic approach function will be set in common are, for example, multiple job postings for which hiring is urgent.

[0133] The automatic approach function may be set to ON in advance for all job offers. In this case, for example, the automatic transmission setting unit 210a sets the automatic approach function to ON for all job offers immediately after the job recruiter terminal 3 completes account registration with the job information site. If the automatic approach function is set to ON in advance for all job vacancies, the candidate selection unit 202 and the proposal unit 203 may be omitted from the configuration of the job vacancy management system server 2a.

[0134] In the machine learning used in the algorithm used to calculate the matching degree, the trained model may be updated by including in the explanatory variables the results when the transmission target is selected by the job recruiter U1. This makes it possible to reflect the results when the transmission target is selected by the judgment of the job recruiter U1 in the calculation of the matching degree when the transmission target is automatically selected.

[0135] As described above, the job vacancy management system 1a according to this embodiment includes a transmission target selection unit (in this embodiment, the candidate selection unit 202a) and a notification transmission unit 206a. The recipient selection unit (in this embodiment, the candidate selection unit 202a) selects a recipient from among the job seekers U2 to whom a notification (approach) is to be sent to encourage them to apply for the job, based on the degree of matching between the job information A1 indicating the conditions of the job and the job seeker information B1 indicating the information of the job seeker U2. The notification sending unit 206a sends a notification (approach) to the selected recipient.

[0136] With this configuration, in the job management system 1a of this embodiment, when sending a notification encouraging applications for a job, the notification is automatically sent to a recipient selected based on the degree of matching between the job information A1 and the job seeker information B1, thereby reducing the effort required of the job recruiter.

[0137] Note that parts of the job management system server 2, 2a in the above-described embodiment, such as the job information acquisition unit 200, job seeker information acquisition unit 201, candidate selection unit 202, 202a, proposal unit 203, operation reception unit 204, display output unit 205, notification transmission unit 206, 206a, application information acquisition unit 207, text generation unit 208, applicant management unit 209, and automatic transmission setting unit 210a, may be implemented by a computer. In this case, the control functions may be realized by recording a program for implementing the control functions on a computer-readable recording medium and loading and executing the program recorded on the recording medium into a computer system. Note that the "computer system" here refers to a computer system built into the job management system server 2, 2a, including an operating system (OS) and hardware such as peripheral devices. Furthermore, the "computer-readable recording medium" refers to portable media such as a flexible disk, optical magnetic disk, ROM (Read Only Memory), and CD-ROM (Compact Disc-Read Only Memory), as well as storage devices such as a hard disk built into the computer system. Furthermore, the term "computer-readable recording medium" may include a medium that dynamically stores a program for a short period of time, such as a communication line when transmitting a program via a network such as the Internet or a communication line such as a telephone line, or a medium that stores a program for a certain period of time, such as a volatile memory within a computer system that serves as a server or client in such a case. The program may also be one that realizes part of the above-mentioned functions, or one that can realize the above-mentioned functions in combination with a program already stored in the computer system. Furthermore, part or all of the employment management system servers 2, 2a in the above-described embodiments may be realized as an integrated circuit such as an LSI (Large Scale Integration). Each functional block of the employment management system servers 2, 2a may be individually implemented as a processor, or part or all of them may be integrated into a processor. Furthermore, the integrated circuit implementation method is not limited to LSI, and may be implemented using a dedicated circuit or a general-purpose processor. Furthermore, if an integrated circuit implementation technology that can replace LSI emerges due to advances in semiconductor technology, an integrated circuit based on that technology may be used.

[0138] One embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail above with reference to the drawings, but the specific configuration is not limited to that described above, and various design changes and the like are possible within the scope that does not deviate from the gist of the present invention.
