📘 Introduction

Navigating job portals manually is tedious, inconsistent, and often inefficient. What if a system could read your resume, analyze your strengths, search jobs in real-time across platforms, and generate interview questions—all personalized to your career path? That’s exactly what this Agentic AI Job Assistant does.

Powered by LangChain, LLMs (GPT-3.5), RAG architecture, and orchestrated using CrewAI, this project is a full-stack intelligent assistant built with Streamlit that automates the end-to-end job discovery and interview preparation process.


🔍 Project Summary:

The Agentic AI Job Search Assistant is an intelligent, modular job-hunting platform that empowers candidates with real-time job recommendations, resume-based job matching, resume quality assessment, and AI-generated interview questions. Built using LangChain, CrewAI, OpenAI GPT, and web scraping APIs, it simulates a recruitment consultant with multi-agent large language model (LLM) workflows.

🎯 Project Goals

  • Parse and analyze resumes using AI.

  • Search real-time jobs from multiple platforms via SerpAPI.

  • Match skills to jobs using semantic search.

  • Generate targeted interview questions based on the job role and resume.

  • Build an intuitive dashboard in Streamlit.

🛠 Step-by-Step Implementation Guide

1️⃣ Resume Upload & Analysis

  • Supports PDF, DOCX, TXT formats.

  • Extracts raw text → Uses spaCy NER + Regex to find name, contact, education, and skills.

  • Extracts metadata, skills, experience, education

  • Categorizes technical stacks: Python, SQL, Cloud, ML, etc.

2️⃣ Skill Extraction & Embedding

  • Extracted skills are converted to vector embeddings.

  • FAISS is used to create a searchable vector store of job-role keywords.

3️⃣ Real-Time Job Search via SerpAPI

  • Platforms supported: LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, Monster.

  • Query formation uses extracted keywords and location preferences.

    Resume Analysis

    • Evaluates strengths and gaps

    • Suggests improvements (ATS keywords, skill alignment, structure)

    • Output is styled and summarized for user review

4️⃣ Job-Resume Matching

  • Computes cosine similarity between job descriptions and the embedded resume.

  • Matches are ranked and displayed with job details, posting source, and skill overlap.

    Job Match Score

    • Evaluates job descriptions against your resume

    • FAISS is used to embed and compare resume-job vectors

    • Returns match score, key skill overlaps, gaps, and actionables

5️⃣ Interview Questions Generation (LLM)

  • Based on the matched job description and resume.

  • Prompts include role, difficulty level, experience, and skills.

  • Uses GPT to dynamically generate STAR-based or technical questions.

  • Each question includes:

    • 📌 Context

    • 🧠 What it evaluates

    • ✅ Tips to answer

    • 📋 STAR-format example responses

🧑‍💼 Example Use Case:

Arpit uploads his resume, selects “Data Scientist” in “Bangalore,” and the system returns:
