AI processing

Applications are matched against the published role criteria

Business logic

Matches show the evidence behind them and are always reviewable

Action

A suggested review order is presented

Result

Faster first-pass review without unexplained filtering

Interview summarisation

SEO, GEO & AEO

Technical SEO

Semantic HTML with one H1 per page and a logical heading order
Unique title, meta description and canonical URL on every page
Open Graph and Twitter card tags sized for link previews
XML sitemap plus a robots file that allows the public sections
Breadcrumbs and descriptive internal linking between related pages
Image optimisation, lazy loading and modern formats (WebP/AVIF)
Mobile-first layout and Core Web Vitals budgets for each template
Redirect map and handled 404 pages to avoid duplicate or dead URLs
JobPosting schema on live public roles, removed when a role closes

GEO — generative engines

Clear entity definition: who the business is, what it sells, where it operates
Structured data so machines can read services, pricing and contact details
First-party facts stated on-page instead of only in images
Topic clusters that cover a subject fully rather than one thin page
Consistent name, address and contact details across every listing
Named authors and sources for any claim that needs backing
Hiring process, timelines and location or remote policy stated openly

AEO — answer engines

Question-shaped headings that match how people actually ask
A short direct answer block under each question before the detail
FAQ sections drawn from real sales and support questions
How-to and step-by-step formats for process-led topics
Comparison and alternatives pages written without overstating claims
Glossary entries defining the terms used across the site
Answers on process length, interview stages and feedback policy

These practices improve discoverability; no ranking or AI-search inclusion is guaranteed.
