Only the B.E. education entry was extracted; the visible 12th and 10th entries were omitted from the parsed output.
What was measured
Field coverage
Are name, email, phone, experience, education, and skills extracted?
decisive for this rankingtransformation
A resume parser should extract the key canonical fields; missing them means it is not doing the main job well. (3 of 3 judges)
What was given, what came back
Test input: Messy real-world resume — John Kumar · pdf · group: resume-parsing
Input — what we sent

Messy real-world resume — John Kumar
A poorly formatted, inconsistent real-world resume for John Kumar, used to test robustness against noisy structure, inconsistent dates, and mixed-content sections.
Why this input is hard
- · messy formatting robustness
- · section detection fallback
- · inconsistent date parsing
- · soft-skills extraction
- · noise and hallucination control
Output — unretouched
