Creating a job applicant evaluation system in the cloud

Background

Recruiters use a human-resources management system (or HRMS) to search internal and external databases (like Monster.com, Dice.com and LinkedIn.com) for resumes that best match a particular job. These applications let recruiters complete other functions, including creating job descriptions that meet industry search standards, rating a resume, conducting an interview, assessing a candidate, and making a job offer.

Everest Consultants worked with a client to develop a cross-platform, cloud-based HRMS application with facial-detection functions. The client also needed the HRMS to identify, in detail, the current stage of each job-application or resume-creation process.

Results

Everest Consultants created the HRMS application on time and met the client’s business-expansion plans. The application:

• Ranks the job description and job title based on data that is available internally, which helps the recruiter write a good job description and title, so creating best-match resumes – and finding the best candidate – are much easier.
• Parses the resume(s) and fetches important information such as technical skills, work history, education history so that the recruiter can quickly review a candidate.
• Ranks the best-matched resumes based on the recruiter’s keywords and job description. The recruiter can then review, rate, schedule for an interview, assess, and hire or reject the candidate.
• Allows candidates to register with the client using a profile image. The client uses the same image to verify the correct candidate is being interviewed and vetted.
