The tool, available at hnmatchmaker.com, provides two views—jobs-by-user and user-by-jobs—and is intended to help users find relevant job listings each month.", "body_md": "Hi!\n\nEvery month the \"Who Wants to Be Hired?\" and \"Who's Hiring?\" Threads come through I would think to myself, \"there should be a match maker for these two threads\".\n\nSo I had abacus.ai whip one up. The methodology is pretty simple, data is extracted from posts using an LLM, score matches based on salary, domain experience, remote/onsite, etc., and then eliminate incompatible postings, like 'looking for remote work' and 'onsite only'. The result is two views: jobs-by-user and user-by-jobs.\n\nIf you've submitted a post to this month's 'Who Wants to Be Hired?\", you can find your matching job listings at [https://hnmatchmaker.com/user/:user_name](https://hnmatchmaker.com/user/:user_name), for example [https://hnmatchmaker.com/user/G4Vi](https://hnmatchmaker.com/user/G4Vi)\n\n---\n\nSome observations when looking at the matches pair up right now:\n\nPoke around, let me know what you think!\n\nUltimately, I hope this is actually helpful to some folks.\n\nComments URL: [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49528057](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49528057)\n\nPoints: 3\n\n# Comments: 0", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-hn-match-maker-matching-who-wants-to-be-hired-with-who-s-hiring", "canonical_source": "https://hnmatchmaker.com/", "published_at": "2026-09-01 20:53:35+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-09-01 21:22:58.944735+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "large-language-models", "ai-tools"], "entities": ["Abacus.ai", "HN Match Maker", "Hacker News"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-hn-match-maker-matching-who-wants-to-be-hired-with-who-s-hiring", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-hn-match-maker-matching-who-wants-to-be-hired-with-who-s-hiring.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-hn-match-maker-matching-who-wants-to-be-hired-with-who-s-hiring.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-hn-match-maker-matching-who-wants-to-be-hired-with-who-s-hiring.jsonld"}}
