Keep every CV you receive in one searchable place.

Resume Management puts every CV your business receives into one searchable place. That includes the ones forwarded on WhatsApp, the printed one handed in at the gate, and the attachments in an HR executive’s inbox. Each is stored with the role applied for, the phone number and where it came from. Six months later you search by skill or town and the file is still there.

What it is

CVs reach a small company by every route there is. A PDF on WhatsApp, a photo of a printed sheet, an email to somebody’s personal Gmail, a file downloaded from a job board. None of them talk to each other.

Here they arrive in one list. The CV file is kept as it came. Details are read off it, and corrected by hand where the reading is wrong.

What it replaces

What your team uses today.

The module takes over these, one at a time, so nothing has to stop while it is set up.

  • An email inbox full of attachments
  • A folder of CVs named by date
  • A sheet of candidates typed by hand
Where it goes wrong today

The problems this is meant to ease.

CVs in many inboxes

Files arrive on WhatsApp, at the gate and in several mailboxes. No place holds them all.

Search by memory

A role reopens and someone recalls a good CV from months back. Finding it takes a day or fails.

The same person, repeated

A candidate applies through a friend, a board and a walk-in. Each entry looks new to whoever opens it.

Details retyped

Phone numbers and skills are copied into a sheet by hand. Typing errors send calls to wrong numbers.

No trail of who read what

A CV is passed around and nobody records the view. Candidates wait for replies that nobody owes.

Inside the module

What resume management does.

Every CV in one place

Upload a file, forward an email, or let the careers form drop it in. A photo of a printed sheet works.

Details read off the CV

Name, phone, email, town, qualification and years of experience are pulled out for you to correct.

Search that works months later

Look for a diesel mechanic in a particular town, or an accounts assistant who knows your accounting software. Old CVs come up with this week’s.

The same person, not three entries

A repeat phone number is flagged, so the man who applied twice last year is one entry and not three.

Tags you decide

Good, but no vacancy then. Wanted too much. Lives too far. Short notes that tell you why you passed.

Who read it, and when

Each CV shows who opened it and what they wrote. Nobody screens the same person twice.

Where it gets used

What this looks like in a working week.

Illustrative scenarios, written to show the shape of the work. They are not accounts of client systems.

A CV arrives on WhatsApp

The front desk forwards it. Name, phone and role are read off the file and checked by a person.

A role reopens

The HR executive searches by skill and town. CVs from earlier months appear with notes from whoever read them.

A duplicate is caught

The same phone number appears again. The entries merge and the history stays together.

A branch manager browses

She sees CVs for her branch alone. Phone numbers stay hidden until HR releases them.

Who touches it

The people who open this every day.

HR executive

Adds CVs as they arrive, corrects what was read wrong, and searches the old ones before advertising again.

Branch manager

Reads only the CVs for his own vacancy and marks the ones worth calling.

Front desk

Scans or photographs what a walk-in hands over, so paper does not sit in a drawer.

How it is set up

From first conversation to daily use.

  1. Find the CV sources

    List every route CVs take into the business. We write back the intake points and who handles each.

  2. Decide the tags

    HR picks the tags and skills to search by. A tag list arrives for approval.

  3. Import the old pile

    Hand over past CVs. Folders, mailboxes or sheets all work, and you review a trial import in which duplicates are marked.

  4. Open it to readers

    HR and branch managers search live. Access rules are checked and corrections are made.

Measuring it

How you would know it is working.

Record where you stand before it goes live, so the change is measured against your own figures.

  • CVs received by channel
  • Duplicate entries merged
  • CVs with role, phone and town filled in
  • CVs read and tagged by HR, against CVs received
  • Searches that led to an interview
How it fits

It is one part of a system, not an island.

A module earns its place by what it passes to the next one. These are the connections we set up most often.

  • Job posting
  • Candidate tracking
  • Email
  • WhatsApp
  • Employee database
Common questions

Questions owners ask about resume management.

How well does it read a CV automatically?

Phone numbers, emails and names come out right most of the time. Qualifications and job titles need a human eye, especially on a scanned sheet. The screen shows what was read next to the file.

Is this needed for twenty CVs a year?

No. A folder on the desktop and a WhatsApp group will do that job. Hundreds of CVs change that.

Can we bring in the CVs we already have?

Yes. A folder of files, a job-board export or an Excel sheet of contacts is loaded in before go-live. Anything the reader cannot make sense of is kept as the file alone, findable by name.

Who can see a candidate’s phone number?

Only the people you allow. Access follows the role you give a person, so a department head sees CVs for his own vacancy while the HR executive sees all of them.

What moves the price of resume management?

Volume and sources matter. The old CV pile, the intake routes and the links to job posting, candidate tracking and email all count. Reading CVs automatically adds work. Importing the old pile can be priced alone.

When can recruiters start searching the CVs?

Existing files decide it. This stage covers intake, field capture, search, tags and duplicate matching. The proposal gives the dates, once you have handed over the files and access rules.
