  • Publication number: 20200105156
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for performing adaptive interview preparation for candidates. During operation, the system obtains a graph-based representation of potential questions for a candidate during an interview. Next, the system receives an answer by the candidate to a first question included in the graph-based representation. The system then calculates similarities between the answer and a set of sample answers to the first question. Finally, the system selects a second question for presentation to the candidate in the interview based on a highest similarity of the answer to a sample answer in the set of sample answers and an edge between the first and second questions in the graph-based representation. The system further triggers presentation of the selected second question to the candidate.

  • Publication number: 20200104781
    Abstract: The technical problem of automatically facilitating a career transition that is a career pivot is addressed by providing a career navigator component in an on-line connection network system. The career navigator is configured to determine that a member's intent is to pivot in their career and, in response, identify, rank, and surface member profiles that indicate the same pivot. The operations for recognizing a pivot intent include maintaining hierarchical occupation taxonomy that can be consulted to determine whether the member's activities on the web site relate to the same or different parent occupations. Once the pivot intent has been recognized, the career navigator identifies those member profiles that indicate the same career transition, and presents those profiles to the pivoting member via a custom-generated user interface.
