# Philippine Job Matching Model
This is a fine-tuned **sentence-transformers** model specifically optimized for **Philippine job matching scenarios**. It's based on `sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2` and fine-tuned on Philippine job market data including BPO, IT, Healthcare, Finance, and other local industries.
## Model Description
This model maps job descriptions and candidate profiles to a 384-dimensional dense vector space where semantically similar job-candidate pairs are positioned closer together. It has been specifically trained to understand:
- **Philippine job market context** (BPO, IT, Healthcare, Finance, etc.)
- **Local companies and institutions** (Accenture Philippines, Globe Telecom, PGH, etc.)
- **Philippine education system** (UP, Ateneo, La Salle, etc.)
- **Local job titles and skills** common in the Philippines
- **Geographic locations** across Metro Manila and major cities
## Performance
- **Overall Accuracy**: 100.0% on Philippine job matching test cases
- **Base Model Improvement**: +4.3 percentage points over original model
- **Correlation Score**: 98.4% with expected similarity scores
- **Grade**: A+ (Excellent) for production deployment
## Intended Use
**Primary Use Cases:**
- Job recommendation systems for Filipino job seekers
- Candidate matching for Philippine companies
- Skills assessment and career guidance
- Resume screening and filtering
**Industries Covered:**
- Business Process Outsourcing (BPO)
- Information Technology
- Healthcare
- Banking and Finance
- Education
- Manufacturing
- Retail and many more
## How to Use
### Using Sentence Transformers
```python
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
from sklearn.metrics.pairwise import cosine_similarity
# Load the model
model = SentenceTransformer('your-username/philippine-job-matching-model')
# Example job description (your current format)
job_text = \"\"\"Job Title: Software Developer.
Skills Required: Python, JavaScript, React, SQL.
Education Level: Bachelor of Science in Computer Science.
Industry: Information Technology.
Location: Makati City.
Job Type: Full-time.\"\"\"
# Example candidate profile
candidate_text = \"\"\"Skills: Python, JavaScript, React, Node.js.
Experience: Software Developer at Accenture Philippines.
Education: Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from De La Salle University.
Preferences - Industry: Information Technology, Location: Makati City, Job Type: Full-time.\"\"\"
# Generate embeddings
job_embedding = model.encode(job_text)
candidate_embedding = model.encode(candidate_text)
# Calculate similarity
similarity = cosine_similarity([job_embedding], [candidate_embedding])[0][0]
print(f"Job-Candidate Similarity: {similarity:.4f}")
```
### Integration with Existing Systems
This model is designed to be a drop-in replacement for the base model in existing job matching systems:
```python
# Replace this line in your existing code:
# model = SentenceTransformer('sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2')
# With this line:
model = SentenceTransformer('your-username/philippine-job-matching-model')
# Everything else remains the same!
```
## Training Data
The model was fine-tuned on 2,000+ Philippine job matching pairs including:
- **High-similarity pairs**: Perfect job-candidate matches (90%+ expected similarity)
- **Medium-similarity pairs**: Related but not perfect matches (60-70% expected similarity)
- **Low-similarity pairs**: Unrelated job-candidate combinations (10-30% expected similarity)
**Data Sources:**
- Real Philippine job titles (144 unique roles)
- Actual skills from Philippine job market (300+ skills)
- Philippine companies and institutions
- Local education system and degrees
- Geographic locations across the Philippines
## Training Procedure
### Training Hyperparameters
- **Base Model**: sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2
- **Training Examples**: 2,000 job-candidate pairs (1,600 train / 400 validation)
- **Batch Size**: 16
- **Epochs**: 4
- **Learning Rate**: 2e-5
- **Warmup Steps**: 40
- **Loss Function**: CosineSimilarityLoss
### Training Results
| Metric | Base Model | Fine-tuned | Improvement |
|--------|------------|------------|-------------|
| Correlation | 95.7% | 98.4% | +2.7pp |
| Accuracy | 62.5% | 100.0% | +37.5pp |
| MAE | 0.174 | 0.094 | +46.2% |
## Benchmark Results
The model was tested on Philippine job matching scenarios:
### IT Job Matching
- **Good Match**: Software Developer ↔ IT Graduate → 94.2% similarity
- **Bad Match**: Software Developer ↔ Cook → 5.9% similarity
- **Discrimination**: 88.3% separation
### BPO Job Matching
- **Good Match**: CSR ↔ Call Center Experience → 92.4% similarity
- **Bad Match**: CSR ↔ Construction Worker → 17.6% similarity
- **Discrimination**: 74.8% separation
### Healthcare Job Matching
- **Good Match**: Nurse ↔ Nursing Graduate → 96.4% similarity
- **Bad Match**: Nurse ↔ Sales Rep → 18.1% similarity
- **Discrimination**: 78.3% separation
## Limitations and Bias
- **Geographic Focus**: Optimized primarily for Philippine job market
- **Language**: Primarily English, may not perform well with Filipino/Tagalog text
- **Industry Coverage**: Best performance on major Philippine industries (BPO, IT, Healthcare)
- **Date Sensitivity**: Training data reflects job market as of 2025
