Information present in resumes has temporal as well as spatial dimensions, such as a person¿s work experience or education. This information by itself is comprehensible - it is very clear when, where, and for how long a person has worked or studied. It becomes increasingly difficult to maintain a clear overview when comparing multiple resumes, specifically their chronological information. Navigating back and forth between resumes, switching between views and attempting to compare every single event is highly inefficient. The most common and intuitive way to compare events from multiple resumes, would be to view them in a side-by-side fashion. Many similarities can be quickly recognized by doing this, but in cases where more than two resumes need to be compared simultaneously, the overview becomes cluttered, the amount of information increases substantially and comparing events becomes a difficult task. We propose the design and implementation of a web application - CV3 - that is capable of comparing multiple chronologies and visualizing the output in a clear manner, whilst maintaining a clean overview. Our approach supports users in filtering timeline events across all resumes, recognizing and extracting relevant information from resumes and visualizing their similarities efficiently in a single overview.
