The Challenge
Friday Media Group (FMG) was experiencing challenges with their existing resume parsing provider as it had difficulty accurately capturing the data from complex CV formats across niche industries. They required a solution which would quickly capture resume data before outputting results with greater accuracy and speed- even a small reduction in processing time was crucial for its job board users.
