Abstract:

A computing device generates job search results for a user. The computing device accesses a social network account of the user to determine employers of contacts in the user's social network. For each job search result, the computing device determines a number of contacts in the user's social network that work for an employer associated with the job search result. The computing device then ranks the job search results based at least in part on the number of contacts in the user's social network that work for employers associated with the job search results. The computing device then provides the ranked search results to the user.
