Matchmaking • Definition • “Matchmaking is the problem of matching offers and requests, such as supplies and demands in a marketplace, services and customers in a service agency, etc.” • Objective • To discover best available offers to a given request • Context of interest for the project • Labor market
Matchmaking • Obstacles • marked differences in the strategies in use for describing job profiles, on one side, and curricula, on the other side &*$! @# £#$ #$*!%? %£#$ &%$! #$%!% %&!$!$ ! @$%!*@#!
Project goal • The goal of MATCH is to make it possible that • when an job seeker draws up his/her curriculum (offer) • this is expressed in a way that is “compliant” to the way companies/employers have expressed their requirements (demand) • and vice versa (exchanging offer and demand) • so that the best MATCH between the offer and the demand is found
Need for a “common language” • To maximize the overlap in matching curricula to labor market demand • Information pieces involved in the overall process have to be expressed by means of a “common language” • This would allow to • Limit ambiguities • Enable for the automatic management of information • Aspects to be taken into account • Partners’ know how • European tools (EFQ, Europass, etc.) • ICT solutions (ontologies, semantic modeling and reasoning)

LO-MATCH • An intermediary platform • With an interface based on a Web portal • Integrating a semantic inference engine • Acting as a facilitator in the definition of request and offer descriptions in learning outcome terms • As well as a solver capable of finding the best match • Targeted to job seekers and employers • Relying upon a knowledge base developed by the partners • Encompassing semantically annotated profiles in KSCs
D28: LO-MATCH platform • Four incremental releases • v1.0 Collection of profiles in KSC • v2.0 Preliminary interface • v3.0 Semantic annotation of • profiles • v4.0 Semantic-based job • matchmaking
The matchmaking process • Perspectives of the job seeker/employer • Can be roughly split in three asynchronous moments • The employer define the requested profile • The job seeker define his or her own curriculum • The best match between job descriptions and curricula is identified • With the LO-MATCH platform • Work/Education/Training/… experiences characterized with learning outcomes from the occupational descriptions (KSC) • Best match is found by exploiting lexical and semantic relations among learning outcomes
