CV Matching

Matching CVs to job openings is a central problem in the recruiting and staffing industry.

The standard procedure is to run a CV through a “parser” that extracts fields such as education and previous employment and loads them into an applicant tracking system. Recruiters then sift through CVs using keywords and knock-out criteria, e.g. if the job requires 2 years of experience, anyone with less than two years of experience is eliminated.

Eduworks offers an alternative approach based on holistic matching of CVs to job descriptions.

In trials with a database of 95,000 CVs, this approach produced high quality matches in under ten seconds.
