Abstract. This study investigates the application of Large Language Models (LLMs) combined with clustering algorithms to automate and optimize the resume screening process in recruitment. The research evaluates the effectiveness of various LLMs such as BERT, RoBERTa, DistilBERT, and STSB RoBERTa in conjunction with clustering algorithms like K-means, DBSCAN, and hierarchical clustering. These combinations are assessed based on their ability to group similar resumes efficiently and accurately, considering factors such as content, context, and semantic relevance. Our research contributes to the field by rigorously analyzing the interplay between advanced NLP models and clustering techniques, identifying the optimal combinations for accurate and meaningful resume grouping. Additionally, we have developed a web application that integrates the most effective LLM-clustering combination, providing recruiters with an intuitive and interactive platform for analyzing clustered resumes. The results demonstrate that the integration of advanced NLP models with clustering techniques significantly improves the precision and relevance of resume clusters, leading to a more streamlined and efficient recruitment process. The final implementation shows promise in handling large datasets, enhancing the speed and accuracy of candidate evaluation and selection.
