Most interesting job openings according to ChatGPT

4 pointsjobswithgptcom3 comments

I've always been fascinated by how large language models "think" about our work. So, I decided to run a little experiment. I gave a GPT model (gpt-4o-mini) a pretty unique task: to go through a big list of job postings and score each one from 0 to 100. But instead of the usual stuff like salary or experience, I gave it three abstract criteria to judge by: autonomy, innovation, and technical challenge. I got to see tons of interesting roles across industries that I had fun reading about. Examples:

Senior Nuclear Scientist – Xcimer Energy (Score: 85) Networking Architect – Optics – OpenAI (Score: 90):

HN: Is this something that could be useful to build on as a job search feature?

If you're sorting by technical challenge, you'd get hard items scored high. I would love to see jobs that are just slightly above my level of skill, not senior nuclear scientist lol.

It would actually be great for hiring too.

Like the problem we see is usually someone comes out of bootcamp being react-literate or knowing some vibe coding, thinking they can carry a billion dollar company. That is why there's an interview process, of course, to see if they are.

But if it's too much, they'll fail. And it's a waste of time for them and everyone else. It should be matching them to the beginner react jobs, where they can gain experience and grow.

When there's not enough matches, people are incentivized to spam. Spammers force companies to use ATS for filtering, increasing the false negative rates, and forcing more unemployed people to spam further. The more mismatches, the longer the interview processes, and so it loops.

The scores are per job - so you could just sort by score in-addition to the other search criteria. The index is still building but I will follow up with an example for you when ready!

Look at the roles! It thinks anyone can pickup any job since it commoditised the knowledge required.
