Abstract

A Curriculum Vitae (CV) or a résumé, in general, consists of personal information, education information, work experience, qualifications and preferences parts. Scanning or making structural transformation of the millions of free-formatted résumés from the databases of companies / institutions with human factor will result in the loss of too much time and human effort. In the literature, a limited number of studies have been done to change the résumés of the free-format to a structural format. The overall objective of the study is to infer required information such as user's experience, features, business and education from résumés of the potential user of a human resources system. In this article, we proposed an ontology driven information parsing system that is planned to operate on few millions of résumés to convert them structured format for the purpose of expert finding through the Semantic Web approach.
