Intelligent System for the Matching of Job Requirements with Resumes for Job Search and Career Building (Career Resource)

Abstract

Career Resource is a web portal that is aimed at aiding users in job searching and employee searching. The system works with an intelligent system developed using the concept of Decision Trees. The intelligent system is used for intelligent matching of the job requirements posted by companies and the resumes posted by the individuals. The portal will also contain general information that would help individuals in their careers. There are 4 sections of the portal, the job seeker’s area, employer’s area, general area and the administrator’s area. Users can sign up with the service to post their CVs (job seekers) and job ads (employers) after signing up. A decision tree has been designed for the matching of the resumes with the job ads based on some marked fields used for matching. The system compares the job ads and the resumes and when a match is made, the users are informed. The general area is basically designed for the resource portion of the portal. This area provides users with useful information about different academic and professional resources in Pakistan. This section is aimed at being populated by the users themselves and thus will evolve with time as the information posted by the users will be searchable by other users. The administrator’s area is restricted only to the site’s administrators. The administrators are responsible for the management and the maintenance of the user accounts and the different site areas. The administrator is also responsible for the invocation of the recruitment process. The report begins with the introduction of the system. The introduction is followed by an overview of the system for better understanding of the technical terminologies used in this document and the system. A complete description of the design, working and features of each module is also given along with the results of testing.
