Abstract
A method is disclosed for supplementing information that is to be presented to a user of a social-networking system with respect to a job posting. A request for a job posting stored in a database of a job hosting service is received from a client-computing device. The job posting is for a job opening of an employer and the request is associated with a first member of a social networking service. A snippet of a member profile of a second member of the social networking service is selected for presentation with the job posting. The snippet is extracted from the member profile based on an identification of a correspondence between information specified in the member profile and information specified in the job posting. Responsive to the request, the snippet is communicated to the client-computing device for presentation to the first member in conjunction with the job description.
