AI-Powered CV Evaluation Tool Development (APIs only) for SDETs (Software developer in Test)

Detailed Breakdown of the AI-Powered CV Assessment Feature for an application need to develop an AI backed API/APIs (Microservices) The AI-powered CV assessment feature will analyze, rate, and provide feedback on a candidate’s resume based on multiple parameters. This will help both SDETs and employers by ensuring that profiles meet industry standards and are aligned with job expectations. 1. Objectives of AI-Powered CV Assessment Automate the screening process to evaluate candidate qualifications. Provide real-time feedback and suggestions for improvement. Match candidates with suitable job opportunities based on resume insights. Standardize the evaluation criteria to ensure fairness and accuracy. 2. Key Functionalities 2.1 Resume Parsing AI Components: Natural Language Processing (NLP) to extract structured data from unstructured text. Named Entity Recognition (NER) to identify key information (skills, experience, education). What It Does: Extracts key sections: Work experience, education, skills, certifications, projects. Identifies inconsistencies (e.g., employment gaps, missing skill descriptions). Standardizes formatting for better readability. 2.2 Skill Assessment & Matching AI Components: Machine Learning (ML) models trained on SDET job descriptions. Knowledge Graphs to understand relationships between skills, tools, and roles. What It Does: Compares listed skills with market-demanded skills. Rates expertise based on job descriptions, keywords, and project descriptions. Identifies missing key skills relevant to SDET roles. 2.3 Experience & Project Evaluation AI Components: Semantic Analysis using NLP to assess the depth of technical descriptions. AI-based grading models to compare past projects with industry benchmarks. What It Does: Evaluates project descriptions for technical depth and relevance. Detects generic descriptions vs. detailed contributions. Scores the experience level based on role responsibilities and tools used. 2.4 AI-Generated CV Score AI Components: Weighted Scoring Algorithm based on predefined SDET criteria. Sentiment Analysis to evaluate how well the CV communicates expertise. What It Does: Assigns a score (e.g., 0-100) based on overall quality, clarity, and alignment with job roles. Provides a breakdown of strengths and weaknesses. Generates a badge (e.g., "Gold Rated SDET") for top profiles. 2.5 Improvement Recommendations AI Components: Generative AI (e.g., GPT-based) for resume rewriting suggestions. Resume Optimization Models trained on high-performing CVs. What It Does: Highlights missing elements (e.g., "You should add more details about your Selenium expertise"). Suggests industry-relevant keywords for better ATS (Applicant Tracking System) compatibility. Provides formatting recommendations to enhance readability. 3. Workflow of AI-Powered CV Assessment User Uploads CV PDF, DOCX, or LinkedIn Profile Import. AI Processes the Resume Parses data (skills, experience, tools, certifications). Assesses quality and relevance. AI Scores the Resume Assigns a score based on experience, skills, and clarity. Identifies improvement areas. User Receives Feedback Detailed breakdown of strengths and weaknesses. Recommendations for enhancements. Final Resubmission (Optional) User can make changes and re-evaluate the CV. Improved CV increases hiring chances. 4. AI Model Selection & Implementation 4.1 Technology Stack NLP Libraries: SpaCy, NLTK, OpenAI GPT, BERT ML Frameworks: TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-Learn Resume Parsing APIs: Affinda, Sovren, or custom-built Database: PostgreSQL / MongoDB for structured resume storage Hosting: AWS Lambda / Google Cloud Functions for scalability 4.2 AI Model Training Training Data: Large datasets of SDET resumes & job descriptions. Fine-Tuning: AI models trained with hiring data to understand recruiter preferences. Evaluation Metrics: Precision, recall, F1-score for accurate resume assessment.
