2. Add your first candidate
Click on the top right corner button and choose your preferred option. You can add a candidate by uploading or dragging and dropping their CV, importing it from Bullhorn, your candidate database, or even create a candidate manually without a CV.
Resume Parsing
Our proprietary AI parser automatically extracts key details from the candidate's resume, including the professional summary, skills, experience, education, certifications, languages, contact info, and more. Parsing progress appears in the bottom right corner.
Please note that only PDF and DOCX documents are supported for uploads. Images such as JPG or PNG will not be parsed.

Ask AI
