Claim 21:
22. A computation system coupleable to a network for personalization of employment search results and search result rankings, the computation system comprising:
a network input and output interface configured to transmit and receive network data, the network input and output interface further configured to receive, via the network, at least one query from an employment candidate as a respondent or a potential employer as a co-respondent; to transmit a plurality of return queries to the respondent or co-respondent via the network; to receive a plurality of responses to the plurality of return queries from the respondent or co-respondent via the network; and to transmit personalized employment search results and search result rankings to the respondent or co-respondent via the network;
at least one data storage device configured to store the plurality of return queries; and
one or more processors coupled to the at least one data storage device and to the network input and output interface, the one or more processors configured to access the at least one data storage device and using the at least one query, to select the plurality of return queries for transmission, the plurality of return queries pertaining to one or more characteristics or features of an employment position, and at least one return query of the plurality of return queries pertaining to a commute time or access to transportation; to search the at least one data storage device for corresponding pluralities of responses to the plurality of return queries from one or more co-respondents or respondents, respectively; to comparatively pair-wise score the plurality of responses to the plurality of return queries against the corresponding pluralities of responses to the return queries using differentially weighted unmodified alignment scores and normalized alignment scores and generate a plurality of pair-wise alignment scores for a plurality of respondent and co-respondent combinations; to sort and rank the plurality of respondent and co-respondent combinations according to the plurality of pair-wise alignment scores; the one or more processors further configured to use the sorted and ranked plurality of respondents or co-respondents combinations to generate and output the personalized employment search results and search result rankings, the personalized employment search results and search result rankings comprising one or more identifications of sorted and ranked respondents or co-respondents for the co-respondent or respondent, respectively.
