Problem
Recruiters and HR departments often spend significant time on manual data entry to build and maintain a searchable database of resumes from various sources like emails and desktops. This process is time-consuming, prone to errors, and can delay the candidate sourcing process. Legacy applicant tracking systems (ATS) may not effectively leverage the wealth of resumes already available within an organization's existing email and desktop archives.
Solution
Tobu provides an automated resume extraction and database-building solution that integrates with email and desktop environments. The platform automatically identifies, parses, and de-duplicates resumes from email attachments and desktop folders, creating a searchable, internal resume database. Tobu utilizes secure APIs to connect to email vendors and desktop environments, ensuring data privacy and security. The AI-powered parsing engine extracts key candidate information, such as name, contact details, experience, and skills, eliminating manual data entry. This enables recruiters to quickly search and identify suitable candidates from their own private database, send targeted email campaigns, and manage candidate data more efficiently.
Target Audience
Tobu primarily targets recruiters, recruitment teams, and HR departments who want to build and maintain an internal, searchable resume database to streamline their candidate sourcing process.
