Project Proposal: Automated Resume Screening
COMP 4750: Natural Language Processing
By Shawon Ibn Kamal, 201761376
Goal
The goal of this project is to built an automated resume screening application. The purpose of this project is
to demonstrate a practical industry use of Natural Language Processing that helps businesses save
resources on recruitment.
Description
The application will be built on python. It will consist of two main parts:
. Extraction of information from resume
This will include parsing of resume files (.pdf, .docx, etc.) to structered usable information that can be
processed. The output type will be a python dictionary.
. Evaluation
Here, we will evaluate the usable informations to find a score for a given job description. This score
will help rank resumes. The process will be done using a combination of few natural language
processing and machine learning algorithms. The evaluation will be based on these primary factors:
Work Experience
Education
Skills
Personality
. Visualization
After evaluation, the results will be visualized using Python Matplotlib.
