A scalable recommendation system approach for a companies - seniors matching

Recommendation systems are becoming more and more present in our daily lives, whether it is for suggesting items to buy, movies to watch or music to listen. They can be used in a large number of contexts. In this paper, we propose the use of a recommendation system in the context of a recruitment platform. The use of the recommendation system allows to obtain precise profile recommendations based on the competences of a candidate to meet the stated requirements and to avoid companies to have to perform a very time-consuming manual sorting of the candidates. Thus, this paper presents the context in which we propose this recommendation system, the data preprocessing, the general approach based on a hybrid Content Based Filtering (CBF) and Similarity Index (SI) system, as well as the means implemented to reduce the computational cost of such a system with the increasing evolution of the platform.
