Challenge Overview
Presented by StarPlan AI
StarPlan AI is a growing company aiming to revolutionizing the recruitment process with AI-powered efficiency. Currently job seekers must prepare resumes, search through job listings, adapt documents to fit specific roles, and apply individually. This process is often slow, repetitive, and overwhelming.
Your task is to design and prototype a mobile-accessible system that automates the job seeker challenges using an AI chatbot. The solution should allow the user to provide their background information in a conversational format (text, audio, or video) through an AI chatbot on their phone. This information should then be structured for automatic resume generation (tailored for one or multiple relevant roles) and job matching using an existing job database.

Challenge Scope
Your solution should help job seekers deal with the job application process. Their experience could be suitable for a single or multiple different roles. Gathering their information should be as simple as possible and is therefore recommended through the use of a smartphone.
The solution should help job seekers:
• With or without an existing resume
• Applying for single or multiple roles
• Seeking to reduce time spent on manual resume editing and searching
Key focus areas:
• Mobile phone first experience
• Conversational AI interface (text, voice, or video)
• Automated document creation tailored to target roles
• Job matching

Solution Requirements
Note: This is a builderʼs challenge. We are evaluating working systems — not slide decks.
1. Working Prototype / Demo
A functional system accessible on a phone that allows the user to upload their resume and communicate with an AI chatbot through text, voice or video. From the user provided information tailored resumes for one or multiple applicable roles should be generated. The information could then be used to display matching job opportunities or automatically apply for them.
2. Live Demo or Demo Video
Prepare a short, clear walkthrough (10-20 minutes) of your system to showcase during the Hackathon Demo Day. This should explain what it does and how it works.
3. Technical Brief (maximum 5 pages)
Should include:
A. Technical Details:
• Chatbot architecture
• AI model integration
• Matching algorithm between job seeker information and job offerings
• Technical stack overview
B. Problem Fit and Value:
• How the solution addresses StarPlan AI’s challenge
• Strengths of your approach to simplify resume creation
C. Limitations and Future Work:
• Known assumptions, limitations and ongoing cost
• Ideas for scaling and matching improvements
