Abstract- in this paper we have proposed automated
job recruiting process along with psychometric analysis.
Here the focus has been given in automating the job
applying and CV processing system. A social networking
website for the job seekers and employers is proposed to
develop which will forward CV to the desired company or
organizations automatically by matching the required
criteria instead of traditional job searching and applying
process. With the help of the website, the job organizations
would be able to choose the eicient and right person for
the right job among the applicants on the basis of
Psychometric analysis and also it will increase the job
satisfaction among the employees.

I. INTRODUCT ION
The world is passing through an era of technological
revolution. In every sector, the manual works are being
replaced by the digital automation systems. This advancement
of technology can improve the job recruiting process to some
extent. The organizations always seek for a qualiied and
experienced person. Again job seekers also get puzzled while
searching for a perfect job. But most of the time it is seen that
the right person is not placed in the right position and as a
result employees are not getting job satisfaction. On the
contrary, organizations sometimes discover the fact that the
recruited employee does not have the qualities and
qualiications that they needed. As a result, a question comes
how many of the employees are satisied with their respective
job leading another question of the satisfaction of the
organization. In this case, Psychometric analysis can provide a
great support in choosing the right person for the right job.
Psychometric analysis is a process aimed to gather a wide
array of information by using assessment of a person. It is then
evaluated to reach to a conclusion or make a decision. From
this perspective, testing which involves the measurement of
human behavior is one of the key elements of the much
broader evaluative process.
Psychometric analysis can be done rom different
perspective. In [1] the researchers collected information to
establish Psychometric assessment. The assessment was
performed on 22 organizations. It was felt by the organizations

that the use of psychometric tests as an aid, contributes to the
success of their selection process. They however emphasized
that it is only an additional tool used to try and inject some
objectivity into what could otherwise be a very subjective
process. Recently the use of psychometric tests is being
applied in multi-million-pound industries, in [2] a
phenomenological study has been made to investigate the
reasons why instructors choose to use psychometric tests
designed for personality assessment in their instructing which
aimed to explore the decision-making process involved and
whether accreditation is important. It is seen that research in
[I] was done on considering general basis of psychometric
analysis while in [2] gave importance on a speciic case to ind
the instructors' interests on using the psychometric analysis
and their decision making criteria.
In [3] authors emphasizes on a different topic discussing
whether information of the companies on psychometric testing
can be used to make deductions about changes in the demand
for skills in the economy. Numerous tools have been
developed that attempt to measure work-related stress and
working conditions, but few practical instruments in the
literature have been found to have a reliable psychometric
factor structure. Examination of the factor structure of the
HSE (Health and Safety Executive) MS (Management
Standard) Indicator Tool using organizational-level data has
been done in [4] through different types of survey works.
The authors of [5] has researched on the use of
psychometric test to enable the recruiters to select only the
best candidates, the ones who prove to be an asset to the
company and these tests have also proven to be cost effective.
This research is similar to our proposed model which involves
doing this kind of psychometric tests by talking and providing
the questionnaires to the candidates physically. But the
research diversiies the psychometric testing process by
starting it initially through a website. Then according to the
recruiters, different types of assessment could be carried out
through different steps for longer time by assessing the
candidates physically. The authors also proposed the interview
room which remains concentrated on the details mentioned in
the resume and discussed about the psychometric tests which
enable the recruiter to gain deeper understanding about the
candidate. The interest of the research lies in implementing
this kind of assessment in a website. The use of semantic web
