Multi-column handling◐ MixedIt can read a two-column/sidebar resume without crashing and pull content from both columns, but the parse is not perfectly layout-stable.Noise in output✗ FailedIt pollutes the skills list with project fragments such as 'parse 500', 'real-time sales forecasting dashboard', 'automation tool', 'aws lambda + s3', 'ci', and 'cd'.Output quality◐ MixedThe two-column output is only moderate quality: core fields are present, but title truncation, noisy skills, and incomplete task extraction reduce usability.
