# How do I quickly select the best resumes from my pile?

Needs to mine the key features from resumes like, precious employers/titles, schools, location, gender, graduation year etc. so that I can then look at a table view and filter for the candidates that are most appropriate. Right now I have to click on each resume individually and read it. This is archaic. The tech is available.

Ok so if that’s too hard, why not at least let me search the content of all of my resumes. “As a user I want to be able to search for anyone that worked at McKinsey” - key word search McKinsey. 

Let me create alerts, “mark a user that worked at McKinsey, or went to Harvard, just applied” “mark a female with 5 years of project manager experience just applied” 

Then let me access all of these fields through your API, so that I can create my own alerts or whatever. If you would just make the resume text string available then we could mine it ourselves.

There is no option to do so, but you can perform some searches in candidates
