Spadework CV Transformer

Updated over 3 weeks ago

What is the Spadework CV Transformer?
The Spadework CV Transformer is an intelligent AI tool that helps automatically transform CVs into a standardized, structured, and enriched format. The tool is designed to save recruiters and agencies time when processing CVs while also improving the quality of CV data.

Spadework reads a CV file (for example, a PDF or Word document), automatically extracts relevant information, and converts it into a clear and organized CV profile. Think of work experience, education, skills, language proficiency, certifications, and more — all placed in the right spot and in a uniform format.

What exactly does the CV Transformer do?
The CV Transformer:

  • Automatically recognizes and structures CV content
    Work experience, education, skills, and other details are automatically identified, even in unstructured or creative CVs.

  • Adds semantic enrichment
    Job titles are normalized and enriched with synonyms or job groups, making it easier to find similar roles in the system.

  • Makes CVs comparable
    Thanks to the standardized format, you can easily compare, match, and search candidates based on content instead of plain text.

  • Supports multiple languages
    The tool works with Dutch as well as foreign-language CVs. Text is automatically translated or interpreted where needed.

  • Integrated with Carerix
    The Transformer’s output can be written directly into Carerix.

How does it work?
The CV Transformer works in a few simple steps:

  1. Upload a CV
    Upload the original CV file via the Spadework interface or directly within the Spadework tab in Carerix.

  2. Automatic processing
    The CV is sent to the Spadework CV Transformer. It analyzes the text, extracts entities (such as employers, job titles, dates), and converts them into a structured profile.

  3. View and edit results
    Within seconds, you’ll see the transformed CV. If desired, you can make manual corrections or add extra details.

  4. Export or save
    The enriched CV profile is stored in Carerix and can easily be shared with a client.

Who is this useful for?
The CV Transformer is ideal for:

  • Recruiters who want to process CVs quickly and accurately

  • Back-office staff who need to enter CV data

  • Talent sourcers who need uniform candidate profiles

  • Recruitment software companies looking to enrich their tools with AI functionality
