Resume Manager

Overview

Resume Manager refers to the profile of Candidate, which provides you with complete information about the candidate at a glance. At the same time you can even view original resume of the candidate in the built in word processor. See the Screenshot here.

A plethora of fields containing information about the candidate are available to allow you to manipulate any required information. Also they are organised and divided into two tabs such as Basic and Extended. In case you require an extra field to store information like address, which may not be available as part of standard fields in HireCraft, you can even add your own by the using Resume Face Sheet feature.

By the way, when you save any new resume into HireCraft most of the information about candidate such as Name, Mobile, Phone, E-Mail, Passport No, Date of Birth, Education, Experience,Skills....etc., are automatically filled into the respective fields, which makes HireCraft a unique Application. The process of this method we call as "Parsing or Parse". Thankfully you are now freed from hours of frustration of entering each information by manually picking one by one from the resume.
