Carrer Compass: An Enhanced Job Recommendation System Using NLP, Machine Learning and Technical Assessment

Abstract

In today’s digital era, finding the right job that aligns with a candidate’s skills, interests, and qualifications remains a major challenge. Traditional job portals rely on keyword matching, often leading to irrelevant recommendations. Career Compass introduces an enhanced job recommendation system leveraging Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine Learning (ML) to improve resume–job alignment. Additionally, it integrates a Technical Test Module that evaluates a candidate’s practical knowledge through multiple-choice questions and coding challenges. This feature allows for personalized recommendations based on both stated skills and verified abilities. Experimental results show improved accuracy and user satisfaction compared to traditional systems.
