The PFR resume importer parses the information in the file you upload to create a candidate record and adds information to as many fields as it can recognize.
To identify and organize relevant data, the files you upload must be text-based documents, such as DOCX, TXT, RTF, ODT, or PDF, rather than scanned documents saved as images or PDFs.
