Smart Text Extraction
Upload a job description file—PDF, Word, or Excel—and extract the text in one click. It fills your job description field so you can edit, use AI to format it, or generate a tailored CV. No copy‑paste.
How it works
Add a job application, upload a file, then extract its text into the job description—optionally with AI formatting.
Add an application and upload a file
In My CV → Job applications (or the content editor job list), add a new application or open an existing one. Upload the job description as a PDF, Word, or Excel file using the file upload area.
Click Extract Text
Next to the uploaded file, click Extract Text. The text is pulled from the document and inserted into the Job description field. You can replace existing text or extract into an empty description.
Edit, format with AI, or generate your CV
Use the extracted text as-is or tick Format with AI when extracting for clearer sections and paragraphs. The same description is used when you generate an AI CV variant or extract keywords for the role.
Supported file types
Text is extracted from PDF, Word (.doc, .docx), Excel (.xls, .xlsx), and plain text / CSV. Tables and structure are preserved where possible. For images, OCR is used when available on the server.
