The disclosed embodiments provide a system for forecasting job applications. During operation, the system applies a first machine learning model to features that include a budget for a job to predict a number of impressions of the job. Next, the system applies a second machine learning model to additional features for the job to estimate an application rate for the job. The system then determines a distribution of applications to the job based on the number of impressions and the application rate. Finally, the system outputs one or more values from the distribution of applications to the job as guidance for setting the budget for the job.

Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for automated profile image generation based on scheduled video conferences. A profile image generation system generates, based on image data captured during a first video conference, a first facial feature data set for a first identified face identified from the image data. The first facial feature data set includes numeric values representing the first identified face. The profile image generation system calculates, based on the first facial feature data set and historic facial feature data sets generated from image data captured during previous video conferences, a first value indicating a likelihood that the first identified face is a first meeting participant that participated in the first video conference. The profile image generation system determines that the first value meets or exceeds a threshold value, and in response, determines that the first identified face is the first meeting participant.
