Recruitment Portal from Yahoo Hot jobs and Monster
We developed a system which will extract the employee profile from the job portals. We extracted profiles from two job portals one from Yahoo Hot Jobs and the other from Monster.com.
Our software developers used php curl to automatically extract the resumes of candidates.
There are two types of extracts. One is RESUME EXTRACTOR for extracting the all the information including the resume and the other is EMAIL EXTRACTOR for extracting the emails alone. php CURL is used in both the cases.
The extract is a multi-step process. This was done using CURL. The First Step in the extract process is the login process. The system will login into the job portal with the login details. Php curl will maintain the session cookies etc. Specifically the scripts login to employer login screen of hotjobs.
The Second Step will show a search form with all the features available in the original job portal website. When the original search criteria are provided the search is performed in the original job portal website.(hotjobs or monster) This will return the employee listing page. The email extractor ends here.
The Third Step will retrieve the full profile including the resume of each employee in the results.
The fourth Step will display the name, title and email of the resultant employee in neat listing with a page navigation feature.
Additional Features:-
View Old Searches:-
The resume Extractor will store the profiles in the database. The employees profile and resume can be viewed at any number of time after being extracted once.
Page Navigation:-
The number of results displayed per page can be modified from the resume search criteria page. Hence profile are extracted page wise which provides faster and easier display. Once a page is extracted it will be stored in the database and when the same is visited next time it will be retrieved from the database making the display faster.
Download:-
In the EMAIL Extractor each resulting page can be downloaded in excel format.
Points:-
In the employee listing page in the Yahoo Hot jobs the result was populated using javascript. The data was not in HTML format. We extracted the raw search result data which was fed to the javascript. From that our software developers extracted the details of each employee. The profile and resume of each employee was also displayed using javascript in the original website. Again the php parser extracted the raw resume text which was fed to the javascript and diplayed them
