A resume parser, CV parser or resume extraction, allows information to be extracted from a document and stored in one place. <strong>The data is then easily searchable.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Reasons to use a resume parser<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Even if most people upload their CVs to job sites using a word or PDF document, the format and page layout can vary greatly from one resume to another. This can make it quite difficult for machines to compare information on different CVs, which is why candidates sometimes have to upload their CV and fill out an additional online form. <strong>Additional forms means longer application processes, which means candidates are likely to abandon the process and look elsewhere.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7677 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/filtering-300x158.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"158\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/filtering-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/filtering-768x405.png 768w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/filtering.png 818w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>However, <strong>if you can\u2019t compare the different CV information in your database, recruiters are the ones who might drop your site for a more efficient one,<\/strong> which can offer better filtering options. As we\u2019ve seen before,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/how-to-use-filters-on-a-job-board-part-i\/\"> filters<\/a> are arguably the core of a job board.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why, more and more, resume parsers are being used to improve the recruitment process on both ends. If you don\u2019t have one yet, then here\u2019s a list of some of the best ones out there for job boards to incorporate into their software.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Examples of resume parsers<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Much like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/job-boardsrus-creating-a-job-board\/\">job board software<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/the-software-rewriting-job-offers-and-understanding-candidates\/\">rewriting tools<\/a>, there are many different resume parsers out there so we can\u2019t list them all. That said, we did some research and here are some of the more interesting ones:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/linkmatch.net\/\">Linkmatch<\/a>: This tool focuses on LinkedIn profiles. While LinkedIn already has a standard layout for each page, the parser lets you download CVs and keep them in your CRM.

Not only does it offer a resume parser, but you can also see the analystics for better data concerning your recruitment campaign. The clever name refers to recruitment and chili as a hidden ingredient in the food which enhances its flavour, much like their tools can enhance recruiting. The parser works in several languages and can even find the candidates social media. For more insight into the company, check out their case studies.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.employastar.com\/resume-parsing\/\">EmployAStar:<\/a> Resume parsers are just a small part of what EmployAStar has to offer. Unfortunately, their own presentation of the resume parser has mistakes, which isn\u2019t that reassuring considering their programs work on language.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joinvision.com\/en\/\">JoinVision<\/a>: This particular company takes parsing a step further. It offers a multilingual resume parser, CVlizer, and a job advert parser, JOBolizer.

What else could you ask for?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Reducing bias thanks to resume parsers<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s great to be able to rely on technology to make resumes more readable for recruiters. Not only can you search for what you want, but you aren\u2019t put off by an unusual CV layouts. <strong>From one country to another, the expected length of a CV can vary, not to mention which information goes where and how much is <em>too much.<\/em><\/strong> Without referring to an extreme example, like the <em>rirekisho <\/em>Japanese resume, <strong>small differences can greatly affect someone\u2019s chances of being hired<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7675 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CV2-229x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"229\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CV2-229x300.png 229w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CV2.png 429w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 229px) 100vw, 229px\" \/>In Anglo-Saxon countries like Australia and the United States, a personal statement appears at the top of a CV, which is usually a couple of pages long, and you are <strong>expected to remove any information, which could lead to bias or prejudice<\/strong>. This means it is best not to mention or include your age, marital status or a photo.<\/p>\n<p>The expectations are quite different in a country like France. Most recruiters recommend fitting everything onto one page (unless you have been working for a long time) and most candidates include a photo. The other person information, like your age and address, are also on most CVs.<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7676 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CV1-207x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"207\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CV1-207x300.png 207w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CV1.png 382w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 207px) 100vw, 207px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you aren\u2019t sure what the local norms are, you can check out the different <strong>CV templates and advice sections <\/strong>on the national job boards. It can definitely help both jobseekers and recruiters understand each other.<\/p>\n<p>Avoiding bias in recruitment can be very difficult and we\u2019ve looked at different ways to tackle the issue in the past, like focusing on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/the-lowdown-on-recruiting-women\/\">recruiting women<\/a> or opting for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/is-blind-recruiting-right-for-your-business\/\">blind recruiting<\/a>.
