Abstract

This paper presents the project CommOnCV, which aims at dealing with the problematics of e---recruitment by considering a new approach based on competency management. The idea consists of allowing a job seeker (respectively a recruiter to identify and formally represent the competencies underlying its Curriculum Vitae (respectively its job offer). These competencies, which allow to make explicit knowledge, skills, abilities, traits and motives acquired by a person (respectively required for a job), are then used to refine the matching process between "supply and demand". In other words, the objective of CommOnCV is to provide to the end-users of websites dedicated to e---recruitment new job-matching services based on competency management. From a technical viewpoint, these competencies are represented by a set of CV's annotations, which are formally represented by using semantic web languages such as RDF/RDFs or DAML+OIL. These annotations, which respect a particular model of competency, are defined according to domain ontologies. These ontologies can be related to a specific sector like Finance/Banking or Healthcare (in this context, the ontology includes the description of jobs and their associated tasks, the description of knowledge, skills and abilities related to these jobs, the organizations of the leader firms, etc.) and/or to a particular enterprise (in this case, the ontology includes the description of more specific tasks exclusively performed by the considered enterprise, organizational, technological and cultural aspects, etc.).
