Backend Components:

1. Resume Parser (resume_parser.py)

# Extracts text from PDF and normalizes for matching
def extract_text_from_pdf(pdf_file):
    return PyPDF2.PdfReader(pdf_file).extract_text().lower()

2. Skill Matching Engine (config.py)

# Predefined job requirements with mandatory vs optional skills
JOB_ROLES = {
    "Data Scientist": {
        "mandatory_skills": ["python", "machine learning", "statistics"],
        "preferred_skills": ["sql", "tensorflow", "aws"]
    }
}

3. Interview Scheduler (jitsi_scheduler.py)

# Generates unique meeting rooms and schedules 24h ahead
def create_jitsi_meeting():
    room_id = generate_unique_id()
    return f"https://meet.jit.si/{room_id}"

4. Email Service (email_sender.py)

# SMTP integration with Gmail App Passwords
def send_interview_email(candidate_email, meeting_link, datetime):
    # Professional email template with meeting details
