Making the best hire for a given position vs not at scale can mean hours of lost productivity with significant monetary implications. The corollary to a false negative is also a false positive.

It's EM, SA, CEO, PM etc. So all problems are not relevant for people who are not managing products and not applying for manager's role. Will you consider adding at least couple of them? "

You could create a signal from reddit comments that can indicate "social media interest" and feed it into a ML system (along with other features) that predicts prices.
