I used to work on Google's applicant tracking system. We used some software that did that to convert all the resumes. It didn't work very well for formatting.

- jcnnghm 16y agoInteresting. I was able to solve the quality issues that plague many of the other solutions for this problem. Do they still use something like that?
- smokey_the_bear 16y agoI don't know, I worked on that in 2005 and have since left Google. But I'd imagine a lot of large companies do something similar with resumes.
- carterschonwald 16y agowhen i was doing the application late fall, early winter, it was acrobat pdf based, which sadly is broken on macs with a case sensitive file system
- smokey_the_bear 16y agoIt looks like they've built an online application system since I was on that project. 6 years ago, you just emailed your resume to an email address that mapped to a job requisition, and we tried to process whatever attachments came in that way.
