What people do today

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

A browser extension that hides job listings based on user-defined negative keywords or specific excluded industries.
A job alert aggregator that allows users to set strict 'must-have' skill requirements that filter out broad, irrelevant recommendations.
A community-driven tool that allows users to flag and categorize why a specific job recommendation was irrelevant to improve future filtering.

“All they do is post unrelated jobs that have nothing to do with what you're looking for.”
