Abstract: The invention relates to a computer-implemented system and method for predicting job performance. The method may comprise the steps of: receiving from a hiring manager a plurality of attributes desired in a job applicant for a job opening; storing a weight factor for one or more of the attributes; receiving a job posting from the hiring manager for the job opening; receiving a resume from each of a plurality of job applicants in response to the job posting; scanning the resumes of the job applicants to extract searchable content from the resumes; applying a predictive model to the content to generate a score for each resume indicating a predicted level of job performance for each job applicant; and generating list of job applicants ordered according to the score.
