I believe if your Tool succeeds in “ Unearthing / Ferreting Out “ , answers to the questions listed above , then it would become a RESOUNDING success !

 

Caution :

 

The graphical profiles ( in the link ) are WOEFULLY inadequate since these were constructed ( of course, by software ) using a tiny database of a few THOUSAND resumes

 

To be meaningful , these would have to have a database of a MILLION resumes

 

And then , these must be for each distinct “ Sub Population “ ( Apple for apple comparison )

 

When we developed these , these were totally MISLEADING because of ALL KINDS of ( non comparable ) resumes thrown in

 

I can explain in detail if required

Kishan ,

 

Without doubt, a “ Candidate Search / Shortlist “ tool , of the type that you describe, can be very useful for head-hunters / recruiters – especially if it is accompanied by :

 

Ø Some kind of a SCORE (  look up > MATCH INDEX ALGORITHM )

 

Ø Reasoning of why they fit the role  

 

Displaying those shortlisted resumes in a “ Descending Order “ of some SCORE , can vastly speed up the shortlisting process, since now , the Recruiter would need to “ Open and Read and Assess “, only ( say ) 10 resumes instead of 50 resumes

 

But then a close match between a given “ Job Descriptions “ – and a given RESUME, is just NOT sufficient to reach a conclusion about the suitability of a particular person for a given vacancy

 

Job Descriptions are full of “ Skill related “ keywords – full of fancy jargon , capable of a “ Good Fit “ with any “ Cleverly written and sufficiently vague “ Resume !

 

Most resumes are a good example of “ Application of Imagination “  !

 

 

If your proposed SaaS tool is going to STOP at this ( Ranking / Match-making of Keywords ) , then I believe it may be no more than “ also ran “  !

 

If your tool has to vastly exceed existing tools in the market , then it must be able to generate graphical profiles as shown at:

Additionally, there’s no need for an internal database since we have LinkedIn data indexed directly on search engines. This ensures that you don’t miss out on any potential candidates, as the system can pull from a vast and continuously updated pool of profiles. By leveraging existing public data, we can provide a comprehensive candidate search without requiring a separate, internal data repository.

Uncle,

I have a few questions about my SaaS app and would really appreciate your input.

If you were given a tool, like a search engine, to find candidates by inputting a job description (in natural language) and receiving a list of potential candidates, along with a score and reasoning for why they fit the role, how valuable do you think that would be? Do you feel it would add real value?

Also, regarding the surprise-exam project, I’ve started developing the backend service for creating tests and managing the state that stores all student responses for a specific test. My aim is to complete the development by October 5.
