Gale-ShapleyAlgorithm

• Let M be empty • While (some job j is unmatched):

• If (j has offered a job to everyone): break • Else: let c be the highest-ranked candidate to which j has not yet offered a job

• j makes an offer to c: • If (c is unmatched):

• c accepts, add (c,j) to M • ElseIf (c is matched to j’ & c: j’ > j):

• c rejects, do nothing • ElseIf (c is matched to j’ & c: j > j’):

• c accepts, remove (c,j’) from M and add (c,j) to M

• Output M
