Before you get the offer…you need to get the interview!

About Us

World Data Processing, Inc. (known in the industry as WDP), parent company to JobSmart Resume, is an executive recruiting group with over 25 years of experience and a history of working with small, medium, and Fortune 1000 companies. We have helped thousands of people get their foot in the door and get the interview that lands them the job. Whether it was a six-figure power position or an entry-level position, each and every candidate had one thing in common - in order to get a job they needed to get their resume read by the hiring manager, the ultimate decision-maker!

Which is to say that WDP has lots of "in-the-trenches" experience, and thousands of placement success stories to its credit.

JobSmart Resume is the brainchild of Larry Willson, one of WDP's most senior and innovative managers. Larry has a long history of introducing sophisticated custom-designed recruiter software tools into the daily recruiting operation of WDP.

At one time recruiters had to wade through piles of resumes organized in binders to do candidate searches. There were few commercially available recruiting software tools you could buy off the shelf, none of which met WDP's needs. So Larry got together with a brilliant programmer and they built their own software tool. It was an Agency Recruiting Management System product they called ARMS, that provided almost instantaneous search capabilities for WDP's fast growing database of candidates. WDP recruiters loved it! And it quickly became the operation backbone of the company.

But nothing stays the same, and almost overnight came the Internet, along with mountains of resumes! WDP recruiters were drowning in web resumes pouring in every day.

Larry's philosophy was always to "work smart, not hard," and once again, ahead of the pack, he developed an in-house application, ResumeRead®, to import, "read," store, and search electronic resumes. Larry and his programming team loaded ResumeRead®, with bells and whistles so that recruiters could easily handle a lot more recruiting tasks than ever before.

However, Larry Willson observed that in the course of his team's research in the use of parsing engine technology, potential problems existed for job seekers submitting electronic resumes - problems of which they were unaware and which could cost them jobs.

All resume reading software is not made equal.
It hadn't taken long for recruiter resume reading software tools to become widespread. The problem is that some software products "read" resumes more accurately than others, and worse, some even reject resumes with formats they can't handle.

Most resumes are dinosaurs trying to get around in a space-age electronic world.
Resumes are still being written according to rules laid down in the dark ages of paper resumes sent by postal snail mail to recruiters and hiring managers.

Some are impossible to read even with the most expensive and sophisticated software.
Recruiters tend to favor resumes they trust to cut down on hours of time-consuming "qualifying" phone calls needed to determine a candidate's exact skill set. Most resumes do not accurately and clearly indicate the exact nature of a candidate's skills and experience as they relate to the jobs recruiters are working hard to fill.

As a job seeker, your time is equally valuable. Candidates too often get calls from recruiters which waste their time, about jobs they neither want, nor for which they have the required skills.

A common remark often heard among people in the job market: "didn't the recruiter read my resume?"
It boils down to a simple equation according to Larry - people want jobs and recruiters are trying to fill jobs. Let's cut out the wasted moves and bring both parties together as quickly and as effortlessly as possible. How to plow through the mountains of Internet resumes and get the right candidate matched to the right job was the problem to be solved. And solved it was!

Larry came to the conclusion that any resume should be able to be read - with 100% accuracy - by any resume-reading parsing engine software out there.

Resumes not compatible with a parsing engine could cost candidates jobs.
So, once again Larry gathered a team of bright programmers and instructed them to come up with an easy-to-use, low-cost software that would convert existing resumes into ones that were compatible with any parsing engine being used anywhere, and provide recruiters with 100% accurate up-to-date skill and experience history.
And they did!
