Title: Systems and methods for modeling workforce talent supply and for automatically processing candidate resumes and job specifications expressed in natural language
Inventor: DANE MARK
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2009-05-01
Abstract: Systems and methods for estimating work-force talent supply. Candidate resumes are received in electronic form and expressed in natural language. The natural language expression of the candidate resumes is analyzed to extract elements expressed in candidate re-sumes and to convert extracted elements into a normalized form. A sampling database of candidates is built using normalized form of elements produced by the analysis of candidate resumes to provide an element-level description of each candidate in the sampling database. Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is used to deter-mine the national supply of workforce talent by occupa-tion, and the national or regional workforce supply of tal-ent is estimated at an element level by statistically extrap-olating the information in the sampling database in accor-dance with the BLS data.
