JOB RESEARCH · Workflow idea

Collect relevant openings and keep their source and freshness visible.

For a job seeker or research team, use a saved role and location to gather matching public listings and organize useful details. Results can be incomplete, stale, duplicated, or mismatched, so preserve the original source and retrieval date and verify each opening before acting. Keep any search profile private, follow source terms, and do not use the list to infer a person’s qualifications or make employment decisions.

Research & strategy

01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

A user-defined search, an approved public listing source, and a private results record

“Organize promising openings without overstating fit, availability, or listing accuracy.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Reads pending job-search criteria, retrieves listings for the requested position and location, filters unusable results, and records the remaining listings for review.

  1. Confirm the role and location criteria

    Use the search details the requester chose and avoid adding inferred personal attributes.

  2. Collect only permitted listing details

    Follow source rules and keep search records limited to their stated research purpose.

  3. Remove duplicates and obvious errors

    Flag incomplete, inconsistent, or low-confidence results rather than silently treating them as valid.

  4. Verify freshness and original sources

    Check the employer listing, posting date, location, and application instructions before sharing.

  5. Review results before recommending action

    Have the requester or a career adviser assess relevance; do not make hiring or eligibility decisions from the list.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A source-linked job list with retrieval dates and verification status.

The handoff

A source-linked job list with retrieval dates and verification status.

Keep in mind

A listing may have closed, changed, or omitted important qualifications. Confirm the details on the employer’s original page, respect the source’s usage terms, and treat relevance as a search aid—not a recommendation or employment decision.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define the search purpose and permitted fields

Limit collection to role, location, and listing information needed for the request.

Respect source terms and personal privacy

Use allowed sources and protect saved search criteria and private result sheets.

Show retrieval dates and confidence limits

Mark stale or uncertain listings and direct users to the original posting.

Keep fit and employment decisions human-led

Do not rank or exclude candidates automatically; route judgments to accountable people.

Keep exploring

Review public job-posting alerts

Collect permitted public job-posting details for a defined search, organize matching opportunities, and prepare a limited alert for researchers. Keep source details accurate, information appropriately private, and consequential next steps under human review.

Review collected job listings

Organize permitted public job listings into a searchable research sheet with source links and collection dates. Keep source details accurate, information appropriately private, and consequential next steps under human review.

Review job-listing feed results

Collect and categorize permitted job listings from approved feeds, save source links and dates, and prepare a review list. Keep source details accurate, information appropriately private, and consequential next steps under human review.
