Alan -

Our system will do that by pulling them in and creating a profile automatically - no forms/profiles need to be filled out - just email'ed (or uploaded) resume. Send me a message and we can talk further about it! swhite@hrmdirect.com

Hi Alan,
Shameless plug here.

Take a look at Newton (www.newtonsoftware.com) We are an ATS company that serves enterprises and RPO’s. Newton, our web application, “absorbs” resumes in their original format (.doc, .docx, pdf, txt, html, etc) and then automatically parses them and the candidate’s contact information into your database in rich text format while storing the original document ( in case you want to download it later or send it to someone).

The nice thing about this is that you can store all your resumes in one place (securely on the web) along with notes on candidates and you NEVER to wait for a resume to download if you are just searching your DB for candidates.

There are some short videos on our tech page you can take a look at if you are interested

Jessica,

Thanks for responding. I am looking into this for an engineer friend who is doing consulting work and starting to farm out engineering talent. He is now at a point where he needs a database, and being an engineer, he feels that everything would look better in the same format.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions you can offer; it's always god to learn new things.

Regards,
Alan
