Our free Resume Checker has exploded in popularity with a 46x increase in usage over the past six months. This means more people are using it now in a day than we had in an entire month back then - that's wild! So, I decided to fine-tune the code, and what started out as a quick fix ended up with a logic that is ~62x faster. We went from 1.550s down to a mere 0.025s. You hit the button the results pop up in a split second - literally. You may ask how (you probably didn't)—I refactored a piece of code that was running repeatedly in every loop, so now it runs just once. Another day, another straightforward enhancement that leads to massively better user experience.
Interestingly enough with things like resume checkers and AI, from a psychological perspective it might make sense to let the user wait - because after waiting it feels like the algorithm has done more work Obviously you dont want to arbitrarily slow down your app, so what we did was provide feedback to users in the form of multiple progress updates to make them feel like our algorithm is doing alot more, instead of just being a black box
How about making the job description optional?
Awesome work!
