Client Overview
The client is an internal HR team facing inefficiencies in resume screening, leading to delays in candidate selection. The manual process required recruiters to sift through numerous resumes, causing inconsistencies and slowing hiring timelines. To address this, Accelirate implemented an AI-driven automated resume screening solution using UiPath’s Agentic Automation capabilities.
Key Takeaways

The HR department faced a time-consuming and manual resume screening process, making it challenging to identify the best candidates quickly. This inefficiency delayed hiring and affected workforce planning. With diverse resume formats and inconsistent data extraction, recruiters spent excessive time filtering candidates.
To optimize hiring efficiency and the talent acquisition process, Accelirate turned to AI Agents driven automation, leveraging UiPath Studio Web, UiPath Web Apps, and UiPath AI Agents. This solution not only standardized resume extraction but also integrated intelligent keyword matching to rank candidates based on job relevance. The system further evolved with AI-powered adaptability, improving accuracy and scalability across multiple job roles.
Overcoming Resume Screening Inefficiencies with AI Agents-Powered Intelligent Process Automation
The HR department faced major inefficiencies in manually screening resumes, which significantly slowed down the hiring process. Recruiters had to sift through hundreds of resumes for each job posting, leading to delayed candidate shortlisting and inconsistent selection criteria.
The process was not only time-consuming but also prone to human error, causing potential misclassification of highly qualified candidates. Additionally, the lack of integration between different HR tools made it difficult to manage resumes efficiently. As hiring demands grew, it became clear that a scalable, intelligent solution was required to standardize resume screening while reducing manual effort and improving accuracy.
Though strategic process automation powered by Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and LLM models were previously implemented, they still had shortcomings, such as:
- Error Handling: Screening resumes using LLM Models led to inconsistencies in extraction and failed activities causing delay in execution.
- Structured Extraction: Resumes extraction needs to be in structured formats, making it challenging to extract in consistent structured format.
- Inaccuracy: The extracted data was not always accurate [10-15% Inaccurate] might require human intervention.
To address these limitations, Accelirate deployed a next level AI-powered resume screening solution leveraging UiPath AI Agents and Agentic Automation to improve efficiency, speed, accuracy, scalability, and decision-making. The following solutions were introduced:
01- Process Development in UiPath Studio Web
- Document Parsing: Leveraged UiPath’s Agent Builder capabilities to extract information from resumes, including candidate name, contact details, skills, education, and experience.
- Keyword Matching: Configured workflows to identify job-specific keywords and rank resumes based on relevance.
02 - Deployment to UiPath Web App
- User Interface Creation: Developed a web-based interface in UiPath Web Apps to allow recruiters to upload resumes, review results, and export shortlisted candidates.
- Customizable Filters: Implemented features to let users modify screening criteria, such as years of experience, education level, and specific skill sets.
- Result Visualization: Provided an intuitive dashboard displaying the extraction of candidates and highlighted key matching attributes.
03 - Upgrading with UiPath Agent Builder
UiPath Studio Web Integration with Agents: UiPath Studio Web provides integration with agents, particularly as part of UiPath’s Agentic Automation capabilities. It enables connections to AI Agents and traditional automation agents by integrating with UiPath Automation Cloud services. These integrations help in achieving tasks such as decision-making, data extraction, conversational automation, and handling unstructured data.
- AI-Powered Enhancements: Integrated UiPath Agent Builder to incorporate machine learning models for better contextual understanding of resumes, such as recognizing synonyms or related skills.
- Cross-Application Integration: Enhanced the agent’s functionality to integrate seamlessly with applicant tracking systems (ATS) and HR management tools.
