ABSTRACT

Massive public resume data emerging on the internet indicates individual-related characteristics in terms of profile and career experiences. Resume Analysis (RA) provides opportunities for many applications, such as recruitment trend predict, talent seeking and evaluation. Existing RA studies either largely rely on the knowledge of domain experts, or leverage classic statistical or data mining models to identify and filter explicit attributes based on pre-defined rules. However, they fail to discover the latent semantic information from semi-structured resume text, i.e., individual career progress trajectory and social-relations, which are otherwise vital to comprehensive understanding of people’s career evolving patterns. Besides, when dealing with large numbers of resumes, how to properly visualize such semantic information to reduce the information load and to support better human cognition is also challenging. To tackle these issues, we propose a visual analytics system called ResumeVis to mine and visualize resume data. First, a text mining-based approach is presented to extract semantic information. Then, a set of visualizations are devised to represent the semantic information in multiple perspectives. Through interactive exploration on ResumeVis performed by domain experts, the following tasks can be accomplished: to trace individual career evolving trajectory; to mine latent social-relations among individuals; and to hold the full picture of massive resumes’ collective mobility. Case studies with over 2,500 government officer resumes demonstrate the effectiveness of our system.
