[Figure 4] FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a screen display for acquiring an index value related to a user's willingness to seek work. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of an information processing system including an information processing apparatus according to this embodiment.

[0010] The information processing device 10 of this embodiment provides a direct recruiting service that enables companies to send job-change scouts to engineers (users using the user terminal 20) who use a news app for engineers. The engineers and companies are registered in advance as recipients of the service.

[0011] As shown in Figure 1, the information processing device 10 of this embodiment includes an article display unit 11 that displays articles on the display screen of a user terminal 20 on which a predetermined program is implemented, an operation reception unit 12 that receives an operation from a user who has viewed an article via the article display unit 11 to allow a company related to the article to scout them, a permission information storage unit 13 that stores the scout permission received via an operation on the operation reception unit 12 as permission information associated with the user and the company, a notification unit 14 that notifies the corresponding company of the permission information stored in the permission information storage unit 13, a browsing history storage unit 15 that stores the browsing history of a user who has viewed an article via the article display unit 11, and an operation control unit 16 that controls the operation of the operation reception unit 12.

[0012] The information processing device 10 can be configured using a single computer (for example, a server) on which a predetermined program is installed, or multiple computers (for example, servers) on which predetermined programs are installed.

[0013] Next, the operation of the information processing device 10 will be described.

[0014] The article display unit 11 displays articles such as news for engineers on the display screen of the user terminal 20. For example, a user can select an article from a list displaying article headlines. The list display can be scrolled by the user, ensuring the required number of articles in the list display headlines. The content of the articles included in the list display and the order of the list display can be controlled based on the browsing history of each user stored in the browsing history storage unit 15, for example, making it possible to efficiently provide appropriate articles to each user.

[0015] The operation receiving unit 12 receives an operation from a user who has viewed an article to permit a job scout from a company related to the article.

[0016] FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of a dialog for accepting a user's operation to permit a job change scout.

[0017] 2 may be displayed on the display screen of the user terminal 20 by the operation accepting unit 12, for example, when the article display unit 11 displays the entire article or most of the article on the display screen of the user terminal 20. Alternatively, the operation accepting unit 12 may display the dialog 50 when an article is selected by operating on a heading in the list display.

[0018] In the example of FIG. 2, the dialog 50 is provided with a check box 51 that is operated when allowing a job scout from a company introduced in the article. The dialog 50 also has a check box 52 that is operated when allowing a job request from the company, and a check box 53 that is operated when allowing an invitation to an event, dinner party, or the like from the company. When a user who has viewed the article checks the check box 51, the check box 52, or the check box 53 and operates the send button 55, the user's permission information is sent from the user terminal 20 to the information processing device 10. The sent permission information is stored in the permission information storage unit 13. The permission information is information that associates types of permission with users and companies.

[0019] By operating the cancel button 54 of the dialog 50, the check in the check box 51, the check box 52 or the check box 53 is cancelled.

[0020] In the example shown in Figure 2, the user's intentions can be confirmed not only for permission to be scouted for new jobs, but also for permission to request work and to be invited to events, etc., so that useful information (permission information) can be provided to corresponding companies.

[0021] The permission information stored in the permission information storage unit 13 can be notified to the corresponding company by the notification unit 14 as appropriate. For example, the notification of the permission information can be sent by the notification unit 14 to the company's terminal device 30. The company that receives the notification of the permission information can take appropriate action against the user based on this notification. For example, when the company receives notification of the permission information indicating permission for a job scout, the company can take effective action such as sending a job scout to the user.

[0022] The articles displayed on the display screen of the user terminal 20 by the article display unit 11 may be those prepared by the provider of the direct recruiting service, or may be those prepared externally by a party other than the provider. For example, a button for linking to an external article (site) may be provided on a display screen displaying a list of article headlines displayed on the user terminal 20, or on other display screens. In this case, an article prepared externally is displayed on the display screen of the user terminal 20, and when the article is viewed, a dialog 50 is displayed on the display screen of the user terminal 20.

[0023] The dialogue 50 may be uniformly displayed to all users who have viewed the corresponding article, but the operation control unit 16 may control whether or not the operation accepting unit 12 displays the dialogue 50.

[0024] For example, the operation control unit 16 can control the operation of the operation reception unit 12 based on the browsing history stored in the browsing history storage unit 15. In this case, the content of articles that interest the user and the strength of the user's desire to change jobs can be determined based on the user's browsing history, and whether or not to display the dialog 50 can be controlled based on the determination result. For example, if the compatibility between the technical content of the article and the job offer content is low or if it is determined that the user has little desire to change jobs, the dialog 50 may be hidden, or the number of times or frequency at which the dialog 50 is displayed may be reduced.

[0025] In addition, the operation control unit 16 can acquire index values ​​related to the user's awareness of the company or the user's willingness to seek work based on operations on the user terminal 20, and control the operation of the operation reception unit 12 based on the acquired index values.

[0026] FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of setting index values ​​related to user recognition of a company.

[0027] In the example of FIG. 3, the number of times a user has viewed a job advertisement for a corresponding company and the number of times an user has read an article related to the corresponding company are reflected in an index value related to the user's awareness of the company. Note that, with respect to a company's job advertisement, for example, the job advertisement headline may be displayed as one of a list of article headlines, and the user may access the job advertisement by operating the headline. Note that the access history to the job advertisement, like the article viewing history, may be stored in the viewing history storage unit 15 and used by the operation control unit 16 to control the operation of the operation receiving unit 12. Furthermore, the index value of each user may be associated with each user and stored in the viewing history storage unit 15, and used by the operation control unit 16 to control the operation of the operation receiving unit 12.

[0028] Fig. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a screen display for acquiring an index value related to a user's willingness to seek work. In the example of Fig. 4, the index value related to the user's willingness to seek work is acquired in the form of a question about items of interest to the user regarding job scouts and recruitment information from companies.

[0029] The screen display shown in Fig. 4 provides operation areas 61, 62, and 63 for selecting side jobs / multiple jobs, freelancing, and job / career change as items of interest to the user. Operation area 64 is also provided for selecting items that the user is not currently interested in. In this case, for example, if operation area 63 is operated, the user's motivation to seek work is deemed high, and this can be reflected in an index value related to the user's motivation to seek work. Furthermore, if the other operation areas 61, 62, and 64 are operated, the user's motivation to seek work is deemed low, and this can be reflected in an index value related to the user's motivation to seek work.

[0030] It is also possible to present content and tools that are likely to interest engineers who are eager to seek work, and gauge their willingness to seek work, as well as the companies and technical fields they are interested in, based on the degree to which they use them. For example, by inputting the job type and related skills, a dialog box displaying an estimated annual salary can be displayed on the user terminal 20. In this case, it is possible to estimate the user's willingness to seek work, as well as the companies and technical fields they are interested in, based on the input job type and related skills.

[0031] Furthermore, the operation control unit 16 can control the operation of the operation reception unit 12 based on instructions from the company. In this case, the instructions from the company may be transmitted from the terminal device 30 to the information processing device 10.

[0032] For example, when a company has finished recruiting for a particular job, the company can issue an instruction to hide all of the dialogues 50 in articles related to that job. Furthermore, the company can set criteria based on the above-mentioned index values, i.e., index values ​​related to the user's awareness of the company or index values ​​related to the user's willingness to work, and reflect these criteria in the instructions. This allows the company to appropriately switch between displaying and hiding the dialogues 50 for each user, depending on the user's awareness of the company or willingness to work.

[0033] As described above, according to this embodiment, the operation receiving unit 12 receives an operation from a user who has viewed an article via the article display unit 11 to permit job scouting by companies related to the article. Therefore, in this embodiment, only users who have a certain interest in the article can be asked to decide whether or not to permit job scouting, and permission information permitting job scouting can be obtained with a high probability. This makes it possible to efficiently connect users who view articles with companies that are potential candidates for job hunting.

[0034] In contrast, with typical direct recruiting services, the scout response rate (the rate of responses to job-change scouts) is very low, and it is said that this wastes a lot of the human costs of recruiters. In other words, from the perspective of the scouted person, the job-change scouts often come from companies they are unfamiliar with or have no interest in, and job-change scouts also come to people who are not particularly motivated to change jobs. This naturally leads not only to a low scout response rate, but also tends to make the scouted person feel uncomfortable.

[0035] In this embodiment, users can be screened based on the articles they have read, their awareness and favorability of the company, their willingness to work, etc., which can significantly improve the scout response rate, providing great benefits to both users looking to change jobs and companies looking to hire.

[0036] In addition, it is generally conceivable to ask users who are thought to be interested in a particular company to apply to that company. However, for example, in a situation where the human resources (users) are free to choose where to change jobs, the users are unlikely to actively accept the application, and such an approach is ineffective. In this regard, according to this embodiment, the user only needs to make a relatively low-threshold decision to allow job scouting, so that the user can be more efficiently connected with the company where the user is likely to change jobs.

[0037] Although the embodiments have been described in detail above, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments, and various modifications and changes are possible within the scope of the claims. In addition, it is also possible to combine all or a plurality of components of the above-described embodiments. [Explanation of symbols]
