Career resources would be my first choice for linked lib data on the Web.
Back in spring 2009, I attempted to create career resources for CS undergraduate students, particularly those who were members of Computer Society at St. John's Univ. The members expressed their interests in finding internships through events 1) organized by learned societies such as IEEE, ACM, etc., 2) sponsored by private or public entities, etc. I didn't go beyond lib guide due to loss of the position in fall 2009.
It's not a simple HR page or job search bulletin page or conference page on the web. The ultimate goal is to help a job seeker land a job, an employer fill the vacancy, the job search process tracked, and resources semantified, etc.
I thought this might be a sound case for developing use cases, especially if we use linked data standards and technologies and others to:
1) integrate people, organizations, events, calendars, etc. including conference proceedings, forums, experts, etc.;
2) weave such resources as info graphs, or discovery of themes, categories, trending, etc. with fine-grained topics, timeline, location, trust, reputation, including social proximity, scholarly prestige, etc.;
3) enable online transactions, scheduling, contact centers among job seekers, employers, partners, etc.;
4) provide Semantic Web search using SPARQL, etc.
In short, a SW killer application shall integrate HR + Hiring Manager + job description + Training Tutorials + Job Seeker + Contact Center functions, etc. and answer questions like how to find employment opportunity and land on a position sturdily in today's economy, etc.
