You'd think online dating would be a lot easier than it is for that matter...

One immediate problem is that some job applications could create ethical or social conflict problems. For instance, it could apply at the company you already work for, which you might think is easy to prevent, but it would be hard to prevent you from applying to subsidiaries, vendors you work closely with, etc.

At the very least the system would have to let you opt-out of applications.

I got let go by one company that had a very strange severance agreement that said I could be sued if I ever applied to work for them again!

Thanks for your detailed response. But I still see all of these as computational problem that can also be scaled very easily.
