ABSTRACT—

This research paper presents the design, development, and implementation of an AI-powered Resume Generator, undertaken as a final-year major project by
undergraduate engineering students. The primary aim of the system is to simplify and enhance the resume creation process for job seekers, especially fresh
graduates and early-career professionals. By leveraging advanced artificial intelligence techniques such as Natural Language Processing (NLP) and machine
learning algorithms, the system automates various critical functions including content generation, grammar and spelling correction, formatting optimization, and
dynamic alignment of user skills with targeted job roles.

The proposed solution addresses common challenges in traditional resume building, such as inconsistent formatting, vague descriptions, and misalignment with
job requirements. The architecture of the system follows a modular design approach, comprising front-end user input modules, back-end NLP-based processing
units, and a data-driven job-skill mapping engine. Technologies used include Python for back-end development, Transformer-based language models for NLP
tasks, and a responsive web interface for user interaction.

The project life-cycle followed a structured software engineering methodology, including requirements analysis, system design, coding, integration, and rigorous
testing. Extensive validation was performed using real-world user data and job descriptions to evaluate system accuracy, relevance of generated content, and user
satisfaction. Results indicate that the system significantly reduces manual effort, improves resume quality, and enhances a candidate’s chances of being
shortlisted.

This paper outlines the motivation behind the project, the technical architecture, detailed implementation strategies, testing methodologies, and potential future
enhancements. The project demonstrates a practical application of engineering principles in AI, software development, and user-centric design, contributing to the
growing intersection of technology and career services.

3. System Architecture

The AI-powered Resume Generator was designed with scalability, modularity, and user convenience at its core. Its architecture consists of three main
layers: the User Interface (UI), the back-end processing system, and the AI-driven module. Together, these components deliver an interactive,
responsive, and intelligent platform. 1. User Interface (UI) The UI provides the first point of interaction for users. It is designed to be intuitive and
responsive, ensuring candidates can easily input academic, professional, and personal data. It features: - Form-based entry fields for sections such as
education, skills, and projects. - Real-time prompts and suggestions for better phrasing. - Template selection with instant preview options. - Error-
checking to avoid incomplete or incorrect entries. The UI is developed with HTML5, CSS3, and React.js, ensuring smooth and consistent performance
across devices. 2. Back-End Layer The back-end serves as the processing hub, facilitating communication between the UI and the AI module. It
manages template storage, session control, secure databases, and dynamic document generation. Implemented with Node.js and Express, it ensures
efficiency and scalability in handling large user volumes. 3. AI Module The AI module is the engine behind the tool’s intelligence. With NLP and ML
techniques, it generates tailored descriptions, recommends keywords for ATS compliance, scores resumes, and suggests job matches. Using advanced
transformer models such as Google
 International Journal of Research Publication and Reviews, Vol 6, Issue 6, pp 261-267 June 2025 263
Gemini and other NLP frameworks, it ensures contextual, accurate, and role-specific output. 4. Modular and Scalable Design The architecture supports
future extensions such as LinkedIn integration, multilingual resume generation, and voice-based input. Cloud deployment on platforms like AWS or
Firebase ensures that the system can scale as user demand grows. Overall, the modular design ensures flexibility for new features and robust handling of
diverse resume-building requirements.

4. Tools & Technologies

The combination of modern technologies powers the AI Resume Generator, ensuring strong performance, scalability, and user engagement. 1. Front-
End HTML, CSS, and JavaScript form the foundation of the interface, while React.js provides a component-based structure for real-time interactivity.
This allows the interface to update dynamically as users make changes, improving usability. 2. Back-End The system’s server side uses Node.js with
Express for efficient routing, middleware handling, and API management. This combination supports the tool’s ability to handle simultaneous requests,
resume generation, and secure authentication. 3. Database MongoDB serves as the database solution. As a NoSQL database, it stores user data such as
qualifications, projects, and draft resumes in a flexible, schema-less format. This structure is adaptable for continuous feature expansion. 4. Artificial
Intelligence & NLP At the heart of the system are NLP-driven models such as Google Gemini, which provide contextual understanding of language.
The models enable the system to craft job-specific descriptions, extract relevant keywords, and optimize resumes for ATS filtering. Techniques like
semantic analysis and keyword extraction enhance personalization and improve job matching accuracy.

5. Project Implementation

The implementation phase focused on integrating AI with user-friendly interfaces and ensuring all features worked cohesively. 1. AI Resume Generator
