AI-DRIVEN RESUME SKILL EXTRACTION AND JOB RECOMMENDATION SYSTEM USING HYBRID TRANSFORMER MAMBA MODEL
Manual resume screening is a time-consuming and error-prone process, particularly in large-scale recruitment where organizations receive hundreds of applications per job opening. Traditional Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) primarily rely on rule-based keyword matching, which lacks contextual understanding and often leads to false positives and false negatives during candidate shortlisting. This paper presents an AI-driven Resume Skill Extraction and Job Recommendation System that integrates a custom-trained MAMBA Named Entity Recognition (NER) model with TF-IDvectorization and cosine similarity-based ranking. The proposed framework performs automated resume parsing, contextual skill identification, skill normalization, job-role similarity computation, and recommendation generation. Unlike conventional keyword-based systems, the MAMBA model captures contextual skill entities, improving extraction accuracy and adaptability to varied resume formats. Extracted skills are transformed into numerical vectors using TF-IDF weighting, and cosine similarity is computed between candidate profiles and predefined job role descriptions to determine relevance scores. Experimental evaluation demonstrates an estimated real-world F1-score of approximately 0.88, representing a significant improvement over traditional rule-based ATS systems while maintaining low computational overhead. The system executes efficiently on standard CPU hardware, making it suitable for small and medium-scale enterprise deployment. The proposed architecture offers a scalable, interpretable, and cost-effective solution for intelligent recruitment automation, balancing accuracy and computational efficiency.
