match_jobs

Find and rank the best live postings for one specific candidate, such as someone who shared a resume or described their experience, skills or visa needs. Slow: it reads each posting's full description, so a call can take 10 to 15 seconds. For browsing, listing or counting postings, use search_jobs, which answers in under a second. Filters active jobs by title terms (any of them; a term matches when the title holds all its words), excluded title terms, companies, locations and posting window, then takes the newest 300 of that pool (pool_total says how many matched) and reads each full description. It drops postings with no usable description, postings whose stated minimum years of experience exceed candidate_years by more than 1, and, with needs_sponsorship, postings that refuse sponsorship or require citizenship or a clearance; dropped counts each reason. The rest are ranked by how many skills appear in the description, then newest first. Each result carries skills_matched, years_bar, flags and up to 6 requirement sentences. The screening is heuristic: read finalists in full with get_job.

read-only

Argument	Type	Description
limit	integer	Results to return, default 15.
skills	array	Specific skills and domain terms from the resume, as whole words or phrases. They rank results and never filter.
titles	array	Title terms, any of which may match. A term matches when the title contains all its words as whole words, in any order: "software engineer" also matches "Engineer, Software". Required unless companies is given.
companies	array	Exact company names from list_companies. With titles, a posting must match both.

Search JobYap job postings by natural-language query. Matches job titles, falling back to significant keywords when the full phrase finds little. Returns result ids, titles and citable URLs for use with fetch. For structured filtering (location, company, remote, freshness) prefer search_jobs.

read-only

Argument	Type	Description
query*	string

Input schema (JSON)

{
  "type": "object",
  "$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",
  "required": [
    "query"
  ],
  "properties": {
    "query": {
      "type": "string",
      "maxLength": 200,
      "minLength": 1
    }
  }
}

search_jobs

Search JobYap's aggregated job postings with structured filters. Fast (under a second): use it to browse, list, count or page through postings and to answer general questions about who is hiring. To find the best postings for one specific person (a resume, or their experience, skills or visa needs), use match_jobs instead. The text query matches job titles only (case-insensitive substring) — try synonyms or shorter tokens when results are thin. Company names must exactly match values from list_companies; locations must be identifiers from search_locations. work_mode matches jobs explicitly marked remote or hybrid (unmarked means unstated, not onsite). Results are active listings, newest first by default; sort=popular ranks by discussion activity. To paginate, pass next_cursor back as cursor and keep every other argument identical.

read-only

Argument	Type	Description
sort	string	recent (default) or popular (most discussed).
query	string	Substring matched against job titles only.
cursor	string	Opaque cursor from a previous next_cursor.
companies	array	Exact company names from list_companies.
locations	array	Location identifiers from search_locations, e.g. city-US-CA-san_francisco.
page_size	integer

search_locations

Resolve a free-text place name ("toronto", "Japan", "Texas") to the location identifiers search_jobs accepts (country-XX, state-XX-YY, city-XX-YY-name). Searches every place JobYap knows, not only those with current openings, so an identifier may match no jobs. City display omits the state, and the list can be shorter than limit.

read-only

Argument	Type	Description
limit	integer
query*	string	Place name fragment, minimum 2 characters.
