Configure Recommended Jobs Based on Candidate Resume

You can allow candidates to upload their resumes and receive a list of recommended jobs weighted and tailored for their current job title, location, and skills.

Candidates can either drag-and-drop their resumes or click Upload Resume. Once the resume is uploaded, a congratulations message is displayed and candidates are shown weighted job results based on their current job title, location, then skills. Let's say a candidate uploads a resume that states that they're a Product Manager located in New York. The jobs that display higher in the list will be those for product managers with the job location in New York.

Note: Resume information is only stored on a per-session basis. Resumes aren't permanently stored. Once candidates click View All Jobs to see weighted search results again, they'll need to re-upload their resumes.

You can configure the Recommended Jobs Element to match the career site look and feel. You can also configure the call to action and other text elements.

Before you start

The career site must have the Resume Parsing functionality set to active. If Resume Parsing isn't active, the feature is still enabled, but it won't display.
