ABSTRACT
In the current digital era, the recruitment process has become highly competitive, with organizations
receiving a large number of job applications for every vacancy. Due to this high volume, manual
resume screening has become a time-consuming and inefficient process, often leading to errors and
inconsistency. To overcome these challenges, this project titled“AI-Based Resume Screener –
Filter Job Applications Using AI”proposes an intelligent and automated solution for resume
screening using Artificial Intelligence techniques.
The main objective of this project is to design and develop a smart system that can automatically
analyze and filter resumes based on predefined job requirements. The system accepts resumes
submitted by candidates and a job description provided by the recruiter as input. UsingNatural
Language Processing (NLP)techniques, the system extracts essential information such as skills,
educational qualifications, work experience, certifications and relevant keywords from the resumes.
This extracted information is then compared with the job description to evaluate the suitability of
each candidate.
Based on the comparison results, a matching score is calculated for every resume. Using this score,
resumes are ranked and classified into suitable and unsuitable categories. Machine learning
techniques are applied to enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of the screening process. This
automated approach reduces the manual workload of recruiters and accelerates the shortlisting
process while maintaining consistency in candidate evaluation.
The proposed system helps organizations efficiently manage large volumes of job applications and
improves overall recruitment efficiency. It allows HR professionals to focus more on interviews and
decision-making rather than manual screening. Overall, this project demonstrates the practical
application of Artificial Intelligence and NLP in solving real-world recruitment problems and
improving the hiring process.
