PeopleFilter has incorporated a state-of-the-art concept search engine which improves the resume search and matching process by unearthing job candidates who cannot be found by conventional keyword searches.

Consider a company that is looking for a software engineer who has experience with Java. PeopleFilter will uncover a jobseeker who describes himself as a programmer who used JDK, and applets. Because the technology "understands" the connection between software and programming and knows that JDK (Java Development Kit) is often used in conjunction with the term Java, it will deliver a candidate that would not typically be uncovered in a keyword search.

PeopleFilter uses this technology in three ways. First, it places a percent of match score on every resume that arrives for a position. Secondly, recruiters can proactively search for terms and know that the results will be intelligent and nuanced. Lastly, when a great resume is discovered, the PeopleFilter System’s “More Like This” function will compare it to every other resume in the system and display those that have similarities, with the most similar at the top of the list.
