How it works
Step 1: Data input
Start with uploading resumes or simply enter search queries
All knowledge starts with text input. Any type of input is possible: both résumés and job profiles are uploaded into the system, to be analyzed. Large amounts of data are entered: the more data, the better the quality of the resulting analyses will be.


Step 2: Text extraction & understanding
What does your input actually mean
Artificial intelligence will interpret the meaning and content of the uploaded text. Multiple CV languages are interpreted.
Step 3: The ontology or knowledge database
Updating from and to the ontology
All meanings, concepts, content are now added to the continuously expanding knowledge database, the ontology. The more data are uploaded, the smarter the ontology gets. As per today, Actonomy is owning the largest HR-ontology in the world (more than 1 billion entries).


Step 4: Enrichment & classification
How can we broaden the query and make it easy to retrieve
Meaning is added, words and concepts are classified in categories of concepts. By broadening the query, the system makes it easier to retrieve.
Step 5: Enriched, graded data output
To be used and processed in your own systems
The output is an upgraded set of data, including meaning and understanding and can be integrated into your own recruitment platform.
