The skill gap, i.e. the propensity to precisely detect and extract relevant skills in applicant resumes and job posts, still form a major obstacle for e-recruitment systems. An e-recruitment framework addressing current shortcomings through the use of multiple cooperative semantic resources is detailed.

• Abstract: The rapid development of the Internet has led to introducing new methods for e-recruitment and human resources management. These methods aim to systematically address the limitations of conventional recruitment procedures through incorporating natural language processing tools and semantics-based methods. In this context, for a given job post, applicant resumes (usually uploaded as free-text unstructured documents in different formats such as .pdf, .doc, or .rtf) are matched/screened out using the conventional keyword-based model enriched by additional resources such as occupational categories and semantics-based techniques. Employing these techniques has proved to be effective in reducing the cost, time, and efforts required in traditional recruitment and candidate selection methods. However, the skill gap, i.e. the propensity to precisely detect and extract relevant skills in applicant resumes and job posts, and the hidden semantic dimensions encoded in applicant resumes still form a major obstacle for e-recruitment systems. This is due to the fact that resources exploited by current e-recruitment systems are obtained from generic domain-independent sources, therefore resulting in knowledge incompleteness and the lack of domain coverage. In this paper, we review state-of-the-art e-recruitment approaches and highlight recent advancements in this domain. An e-recruitment framework addressing current shortcomings through the use of multiple cooperative semantic resources, feature extraction techniques and skill relatedness measures is detailed. An instantiation of the proposed framework is proposed and an experimental validation using a real-world recruitment dataset from two employment portals demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

  This paper explores the feasibility of employing smaller, domain-specific encoder LMs alongside prompting techniques to enhance performance in specialized contexts. Our study concentrates on the Italian bureaucratic and legal language, experimenting with both general-purpose and further pre-trained encoder-only models. The results indicate that while further pre-trained models may show diminished robustness in general knowledge, they exhibit superior adaptability for domain-specific tasks, even in a zero-shot setting.

  Conventional domain adaptation (DA) techniques aim to improve domain transferability by learning domain-invariant representations. The requirement of simultaneous access to labeled source and unlabeled target renders them unsuitable for the challenging source-free DA setting. We derive novel insights to show that a mixup between original and corresponding translated generic samples enhances the discriminability-transferability trade-off.
