Import PDF CV with OpenAI
Revolutionize your recruitment workflow with intelligent CV parsing
Automatically extract candidate information, including name, email, phone, rich project experiences, and dynamic skill levels from uploaded PDF CVs using the power of OpenAI's LLMs.
Key Features
- Flexible Uploads: Import a single PDF CV, select multiple PDF files at once, or upload an entire folder containing PDF CVs to process them in bulk.
- AI NLP Extraction: Leverage OpenAI (GPT-3.5-Turbo, GPT-4o, etc.) to extract clean, structured JSON from raw PDF text.
- Dynamic Skill Levels: Say goodbye to all "Expert" skills. The module evaluates proficiency from context and dynamically sets the real progress level.
- Rich Experience Details: Automatically generates beautiful HTML lists for Work Experience and Projects including Technologies Used, Team Sizes, and Achievements.
- Background Workers: Integrated cron jobs handle heavy PDF extraction and regular duplicate cleanup silently. Uploaded bulk/folder CVs are queued and processed sequentially to ensure system stability.
- Text-based PDFs Only: Please note that this module parses standard text layers. It does not currently support Optical Character Recognition (OCR). PDFs exported purely as images or scanned documents without selectable text cannot be processed.
Beautifully extracted Candidates
Simple Setup & API Management
Configuring your OpenAI link is as simple as going to the Settings module. Rather than hardcoding everything, you can actively change your OpenAI Model immediately when new iterations are released. Lower costs with gpt-3.5-turbo or extract more profound CV insights utilizing gpt-4o. The choice is yours.
How to Get Your OpenAI API Key
- Register an Account: Go to https://platform.openai.com/signup OpenAI Platform and sign up.
- Set up Billing: Navigate to Settings > Billing, and add a payment method. API usage requires pre-funded accounts (minimum $5).
- Create an API Key: Go to the https://platform.openai.com/api-keys API Keys page. Click Create new secret key, give it a name, and copy the generated string.
- Configure in Odoo: Paste this key directly into the OpenAI API Key field in your Odoo Recruitment Settings (shown above).
Cost Estimation per CV
We use the OpenAI API. Based on real-world usage, a detailed 4-page CV typically consumes around 16,000 tokens (Input text + Output JSON combined). Here is an estimated cost breakdown based on 2 popular models:
| Model | Estimated Cost (per 16k tokens) | Cost per 100 CVs |
|---|---|---|
| gpt-3.5-turbo (Fast and Highly Cost-Effective) |
~$0.024 | ~$2.40 |
| gpt-4o (Highest accuracy for complex experiences) |
~$0.160 | ~$16.00 |
*Note: Prices approximate based on OpenAI's pricing. Input/output tokens have slightly different rates. (Update: Spring 2026 pricing).
This Odoo module does not include OpenAI API subscriptions. You must create your own OpenAI account, add a payment method, and fund your API balance. You will be billed directly by OpenAI for all tokens consumed during CV parsing.
