Introduction
Resume formatting is a time-consuming bottleneck in recruitment. Talent acquisition professionals spend up to 30 minutes per candidate manually adjusting the format, text, and fonts, as well as adding or removing information. This repetitive task delays hiring decisions, increases operational costs, and limits recruiters’ ability to focus on high-value activities like candidate engagement and talent evaluation.
To solve this, Allmatics partnered with DocStreams to develop an AI-driven resume processing platform that automates PDF-to-structured DOCX conversion, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and efficiency in resume handling.
This solution allows recruiters to use AI to identify the best-fit candidates by analyzing their skills, experience, and qualifications in relation to specific job requirements.

Business Challenge
1. Manual Resume Formatting Slowed Down Recruitment
Recruiters spent too much time manually converting PDFs into structured, well-formatted resumes, delaying candidate submissions.
2. Inconsistency in Resume Formatting
Different resume structures required manual adjustments, causing inconsistencies in presentation.
3. Poor formatting recognition and inefficiencies in Data Extraction & ATS Integration
Existing parsing tools often misplaced data (e.g., job history, skills, and education), requiring manual correction before resumes could be uploaded to an ATS.
4. Scalability for High-Volume Recruitment
Enterprise recruiters handling hundreds of resumes per day needed a faster, bulk-processing solution to reduce workload.
