HR-Focused Automation Pipeline with AI

Key Features and Highlights

This workflow achieves a high degree of automation in the recruitment process by leveraging AI technology to extract key information (educational background, work experience, skills, and personal details) from candidate-submitted resumes in PDF format. It automatically generates concise candidate summaries. The system then intelligently matches candidate information against predefined job requirements, providing a match score and detailed evaluation comments. Finally, the results are structured and stored in Google Sheets for efficient recruitment data management and analysis. Meanwhile, resume files are automatically uploaded to Google Drive for archival management.

Core Problems Addressed

  • Manual extraction of information from large volumes of resumes by HR is time-consuming, inefficient, and prone to errors.
  • Lack of automated tools to intelligently match resume content with job requirements, making it difficult to quickly assess candidate suitability.
  • Recruitment data is scattered and not centralized, hindering subsequent data aggregation and analysis.

Application Scenarios

  • Automated recruitment process management for corporate HR teams
  • Automated resume screening and evaluation on talent recruitment websites
  • Rapid candidate-to-job matching for recruitment consultants or headhunting firms
  • Medium to large enterprises or HR service providers handling large volumes of resumes and seeking efficient, accurate candidate selection

Main Process Steps

  1. Form Submission Trigger: Candidates submit their name, email, and PDF resume via an online “Send CV” form.
  2. Resume Upload and Parsing: Resume files are automatically uploaded to Google Drive for archival, while PDF content extraction nodes extract text information.
  3. Information Extraction: AI extractors capture candidate details including education, work experience, skills, and personal information (phone number, city, date of birth).
  4. Content Summarization: Extracted data is merged and an AI-generated concise professional summary of the candidate is created.
  5. Job Requirement Definition: Key criteria for the target position (e.g., tech stack, work experience, location) are defined.
  6. Intelligent Matching and Scoring: The AI acts as an HR expert, providing a match score (1-10) and evaluation remarks based on the candidate summary and job requirements.
  7. Result Storage: All structured data and scoring results are appended to Google Sheets for easy management and analysis.
