Answer the below query as a customer support assistant about Skillate Product:
#query_subject#: Account & Settings:Configure Hiring Plan
#query#: How to Configure Hiring Plan? | When a candidate is sourced to skillate for a particular job opening, the job admin can take that candidate through stages to schedule interview, tests and internal assessments etc. Each job allows admins to configure it's own custom hiring plan but to keep things simple site admins can also configure a default hiring plan. Admins can still modify the hiring plan in each individual jobs if they want to. A hiring plan is comprised of stages and interviews in a defined order. A candidate can be taken through each stage before hiring. This helps recruiters keep track of candidates in bulk and take actions. Stages are essentially a group of interviews. Let's quickly understand a few concepts to get more clarity Stages Stages are essentially a set of interview rounds which a candidate needs to clear before moving to the next stage. A stage can comprise multiple interviews. You give any name to the stage as well as interviews in that stage. You can also re-arrange stages and interviews by dragging them up and down We have two special stages in skillate which admins cannot change or remove. They are screening stage and offer stage. Screening stage is the first stage where skillate AI engine gives matching scores to candidates. Users can take actions on the candidates based on the score and move the candidates to interview stages Offer stage is a final stage of the hiring plan. You can mark candidate as hired once he/she is moved to the offer stage. Admins can choose to create as many stages they want between these two stages. Interviews Interviews are individual steps inside each stage which candidates need to complete before moving to the next stage. There are two types of interviews. Interviews type In this type, admins can schedule interviews, send calendar invites to the hiring team and the candidates. And once the interview is done they can collect feedbacks. Feedback type In this type, there is no need to schedule an interview. Admins just need to send a reminder to the hiring team to submit feedback. This is useful when there is an internal evaluation or it's a walk-in interview. Recruiters can move candidates in any stage irrespective of whether they have finished all the interviews in that stage. Steps to configure default stages You can configure default stages in the settings page from the "Interview Stages Setup" section. Here, click on "add stage", which will prompt a modal where you add a custom stage. You can also import stages from an existing job if any, importing stages will only replicate the stage and it's stages. Once a stage has been added you can add interviews to that stage. You can define the type of interview from the dropdown. That's it, the flow you've defined here will be the default flow of all the new job created henceforth. Note: Default flow will be applied to all new jobs created, however recruiters can still change the flow in each jobs, it won't affect the default flow. |

#query_subject#: Account & Settings:Create User Groups
#query#: How to Create User Groups? |
Permission: Site Admin
Skillate allows your organization to have segregation based access to jobs, candidates and reports based on the user’s department, location and roles.
For this, User Groups are created to provide limited access to the recruiters as per their concerned department and location for hiring.
For example, managers are generally concerned with the hiring requirement of their respective Business Unit. They may wish to have limited visibility for their subordinates or recruiters. A Marketing Team Lead may only want to know the detail of jobs, candidates and reports concerning the marketing department and its location. This lets managers add users that only require to know information pertaining to a particular department and location. Go to . Here you can define User Groups based on office location and department and map the concerned hiring team members.
Click “Add Group”. Fill in the User Group Name and select the criteria (office, department). Once done, click “Submit”.
To add users in the group, click the Group Name in the tab. Under the tab, enter all the users you want to be a part of that group. These users will have access to jobs matching the group’s criteria. Once done, click .
For example, the group selected is for Mumbai location and Engneering department. The members added to this group will have access to the data corresponding the job with Mumbai location and Engineering department.
Now the users in this group will have access to the information corresponding to the job with department as finance & accounting and office as Pune. The lets you define the hiring team for all new jobs created by that User Group. New Jobs matching the group’s criteria will automatically be assigned the hiring team members with their respective roles.
Note: A member may not necessarily be a part of the hiring team mapping. So, this member will not have access to the hiring team matching criteria but only the job he is by default added to. |

#query_subject#: Skillate AI:Resume Parser
#query#: How to Resume Parser? |
A resume parser (CV parser) is used within human resource software and on recruitment websites, job boards, and candidate application portals to simplify and accelerate the application process. It does so by extracting and classifying thousands of attributes about the candidate.
A resume parser also provides the foundation for a semantic search of candidate data. The parser identifies different kinds of information within a resume or CV and tags each data point (for example, Work Experience, Educational Background, Skills, and Personal Details of the candidate).
Resume Parsing on Skillate has two essential steps: 1. Text (Content) Extraction, 2. Information Extraction
Text (Content) Extraction
In the Content Extraction step, the resume content is extracted from the uploaded files (from various formats of raw documents .pdf, .doc, .docx, etc. formats). Information Extraction
The next step in resume parsing is extracting structured information from unstructured or semi-structured machine-readable documents.
A typical resume is a collection of information that includes the
Work Experience, Educational Background, Skills, and Personal Details of a candidate. And this information will be presented on a resume in various formats: tables, multiple lines, sections, etc.
Deep Learning Algorithms in
NLP (Natural Language Processing) help extract information from the content of a resume. Skillate has trained a custom
Deep Learning NER (Named Entity Recognition) model based on Google’s
BERT language model with the help of over 100000 resumes. Understanding NER
Named Entity Recognition (NER) helps fetch the information from the extracted content. The NER locates and classifies the named entities in the unstructured text into predefined categories such as the person names, organizations, locations, etc. These are part of Skillate’s customized NER model (AI). 2000–2008: Professor at IIT Kanpur
B.Tech in Computer Science from IIT Kanpur
Relying solely on the NER model will not yield high accuracy in all cases. Hence, Skillate has created post-processing algorithms using NLP for sanitizing the information extracted from the resumes.
Limitations of Resume Parser
Even with all the advancements and research into Deep Learning and other NLP technologies, achieving 100% accuracy in AI is impossible. Improving the accuracy of the models is a continuous process due to the size of the training data and time for training.
Below are some of the cases where Skillate’s parsing accuracy is not at its best -
Complex resumes with multiple vertical/horizontal sections and multiple tables.
Inconsistent patterns or tabs or whitespaces
Resumes with images, diagrams, arts, etc.
Resumes created from screenshots, scanned copies, photographed , etc.
Wrong information or format furnished by the candidate.
Skillate keeps testing and updating these algorithms to improve the overall parsing quality.
Skillate’s Structured Resume Format
The resume parser gets the parsed resume in a structured format. Provided below is the structured resume format generated by the Skillate resume parser.
The structured resume in Skillate will have the following fields captured: Name First name Middle name Last name Emails Phone Number
Total Number of Working Experience (Years) Education Detail(s) Institute Degree Major
Start year & month *skillate counts month starting from 0 to 11

Answer the below query as a customer support assistant about Skillate Product:
#query_subject#: Skillate AI:Deduplication of Candidate Resumes
#query#: How to Deduplication of Candidate Resumes? |
It is common for the same person to apply to your job openings multiple times. It is good that they are so eager to work for your organization, but you need your candidate lists to be clean and streamlined. Skillate AI makes it easy to identify duplicate candidate profiles and mark them as Duplicate.
Below is the detailed diagram of how the Skillate AI helps in de-duplicate candidate resume:
The Skillate AI deduplication process has two rounds.
In round 1, the AI checks for duplicate email and phone numbers. If there is a match in email or phone number, the resume will be marked as a duplicate.
If both criteria on round 1 are unmatched, the AI moves to round 2 of the deduplication process.
It begins with the name of the candidate (mandatory step) and provides a weightage for each of the criteria.
Please note that all these criteria checks will be done parallelly, and a weightage will be provided. Based on this, it is decided if the resume is a duplicate or not. Skillate has Candidate ID and
Original Candidate ID.
Whenever a candidate's resume is added to Skillate, it will be assigned with a
Candidate ID and Original Candidate ID.
Now suppose another candidate’s resume is added to Skillate, and it will be assigned with a Candidate ID.
Upon completing the deduplication process, if the resumes are found to be duplicates - the latter resume will be assigned with the
Original Candidate ID of the former.
