Résumé parsing

Okay kiddo, have you ever seen an application form that has blanks for you to fill in your personal information like name, age, and address? Sure, you have! Now, imagine you have a document called a résumé which tells about all your skills, education, and work experience. Résumé parsing is a tool that helps to enter your résumé information into a computer program that can be used to match your skills with appropriate job openings. Think of it like a big game of matching - your résumé gets matched up with job openings based on the information that the program found in your résumé. This way, recruiters can easily find the perfect candidate for the job, faster and more accurately than looking at the résumé by hand. Pretty cool, right?
