  • Publication number: 20160132834
    Abstract: Techniques for assisting a user in conducting an online job search for online job listings are described. According to various embodiments, a user specification of a job search query including at least one user-specified job search query term is received. Values for one or more member profile attributes of the user are then accessed. Thereafter, the job search query is modified based on the accessed values for the member profile attributes of the user, the modifying comprising inserting job search query terms corresponding to the values for the member profile attributes into the job search query. Search results corresponding to job listings posted on the job search engine are then generated, based on the modified job search query. Further, one or more of the search results may be displayed, via a user interface.

  • Publication number: 20160124958
    Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and machine-readable mediums which provide for a personalized expertise searching. When a user of the social networking service enters a search query, the system determines if the user is searching for members who possess a particular skill. If the user is searching for members who possess a particular skill, the search results are post-processed by personalizing the search results using one or more machine-learning models which utilize one or more observed features about the user that enters the query, the skills of the members of the social networking service, and the query itself. In some examples, the system may utilize multiple machine-learning models in multiple passes to fine tune the relevance of the search results and to ensure that the post-processing returns search results in a timely manner.

  • Patent number: 9325182
    Abstract: A surface-mountable electric vehicle charging station is disclosed. The charging station includes a housing, a first mounting member having a first coupling portion and a first locking portion, including a first locking aperture therethrough, and a second mounting member having a second coupling portion coupleable to the first coupling portion to prevent a movement of the housing in one of a first and a second direction. The second mounting member also includes a second locking portion with a latch surface. One of the mounting members is coupleable to the housing, and the other mounting member is coupleable to the mounting surface. A lock member is disposed in the first locking aperture, movable between a first disengaged position and a second engaged position. The lock member cooperates with the latch surface in the second engaged position, to prevent a movement of the housing in a third direction.

  • Publication number: 20160034464
    Abstract: A system and method for personalized search based on searcher interest may include obtaining a search term from a member of a social network at a user device via the network interface. An initial result may be generated based on the search term, including a first group of content items from a social network and stored in a content database, the content items including member profiles of members of the social network. Each of the content items of the first group may be ranked based on information from an activity database, the activity database storing the information related to the social network, the activities including interactions with search results that include ones of the member profiles. A second group of the content items may be displayed, including at least some of the first group of the content items, based on the rank of the first group of the content items.

  • Publication number: 20150317314
    Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and machine readable mediums which find a special set of keywords which, when used to search a supplemental set of search verticals (e.g., the newly added search verticals), return high quality results. When a user enters a search containing one or more keywords from the special set of keywords, the system may search both the standard set of search verticals (as normal), but also the one or more keywords may be used to search the supplemental set of search verticals. Results from both may then be presented to the user.
