Video Guide
I prepared a detailed guide that showed the whole process of building a resume analyzer.
Who is this for?
This workflow is ideal for recruitment agencies, HR professionals, and hiring managers looking to automate the initial screening of CVs. It is especially useful for organizations handling large volumes of applications and seeking to streamline their recruitment process.
What problem does this workflow solve?
Manually screening resumes is time-consuming and prone to human error. This workflow automates the process, providing consistent and objective analysis of CVs against job descriptions. It helps filter out unsuitable candidates early, reducing workload and improving the overall efficiency of the recruitment process.
What this workflow does
This workflow automates the resume screening process using OpenAI for analysis. It provides a matching score, a summary of candidate suitability, and key insights into why the candidate fits (or doesn’t fit) the job.
- Retrieve Resume: The workflow downloads CVs from a direct link (e.g., Supabase storage or Dropbox).
- Extract Data: Extracts text data from PDF or DOC files for analysis.
- Analyze with OpenAI: Sends the extracted data and job description to OpenAI to:
- Generate a matching score.
- Summarize candidate strengths and weaknesses.
- Provide actionable insights into their suitability for the job.
Setup
Preparation

- Write a Prompt: Provide OpenAI with a clear and detailed prompt to ensure accurate analysis.
N8N Scenario
- Download File: Fetch the CV using its direct URL.
