The stream filter terms in server.js are 'we are hiring, looking for interns, we are employing, vacancy!, we have job available'. How did you pick them? I've never searched Twitter for a job but I can imagine there are a lot of jobs that those terms are going to miss.

Use ML. Gather a bunch of tweets and learn a model that classifies tweets (job listing / not job listing). Then use the model as a filter. You can use it in concert with your current implementation: if the tweet contains any of your keywords, there's no need to invoke the model. Hope that helps.
