A More Self-Explanatory Career Ladder
The level axis now names and explains every level on hover, so the chart reads on its own for candidates and recruiters alike.
Resume Visualization Skill
A Claude AI skill that turns any resume PDF into a structured, visual infographic.
What it does
The skill reads the text of a resume PDF, parses it into a structured JSON (name, contact, experience, education, skills, and more), then renders the JSON as a self-contained HTML/CSS/JS infographic no external dependencies, one file, ready to share or print.
How to get it and use it
The resume-parsing-visualization skill lives in a GitHub repository, which always holds the current version and is updated as the skill improves. You can inspect the skill contents on GitHub.
To install the skill:
- Download the skill to your computer using the Download the latest version link in the README file.
- Once downloaded, install it in your Claude account: Claude → Account → Settings → Skills.
After the skill is installed and appears in your list of skills, prompt Claude by typing use resume visualization skill to visualize the attached resume and attaching your resume file to the chat.
Claude will output a single .html file with the visual resume.
Resume Visualization Skill v2.0: Faster, Lighter, and Easier on the Planet
Version 2.0 splits parsing from rendering: fewer AI tokens, less compute per render, and roughly half the time to a finished chart.
