Challenges we solve

FINRA license tracking across multiple registrations

Financial professionals hold overlapping Series licenses (7, 63, 65, 66, 79, 99) with different expiration dates, U5 statuses, and firm registrations. Generic parsers treat "Series 7" as a keyword match but miss license numbers, registration dates, and whether the license is currently active or in a cooling-off period.

Multi-layered certifications across asset classes

A single finance resume might list CFA, CPA, FRM, CAIA, CFP, and Bloomberg Market Concepts alongside product-specific experience in derivatives, structured credit, or municipal bonds. Recruiters need these parsed into separate credential types, not merged into one flat list that makes it impossible to filter candidates by qualification.

Regulatory scrutiny of candidate data handling

Financial firms operate under SOX, SEC, and FINRA oversight that extends to how candidate personally identifiable information is processed and stored. Using a resume parser that retains data on third-party servers creates audit exposure, especially when candidates include compensation history, MNPI references, or client account details in their CVs.

Why Finance Teams Choose Resume Parser

FINRA license and Series certification extraction

The parser identifies Series 7, 63, 65, 66, 79, 24, 99, and SIE designations along with CRD numbers when listed. Each license is returned as a distinct structured record rather than a keyword in a skills list. This lets compliance teams cross-reference against FINRA BrokerCheck programmatically.

Financial certification hierarchy parsing

CFA (including charter level and candidacy status), CPA (with state of licensure), FRM, CAIA, CFP, and Bloomberg certifications are each extracted with their specific metadata. The parser distinguishes between "CFA Level II Candidate" and "CFA Charterholder," a distinction that matters for front-office hiring.

Asset class and product experience structuring

Work history descriptions are parsed to identify experience with specific asset classes, trading products, and financial instruments. Whether a candidate worked in equity derivatives, fixed income, prime brokerage, or wealth management is captured from role descriptions and returned as structured data for downstream matching.

Zero-retention processing for regulatory compliance

All resume data is processed in memory on EU-hosted infrastructure in Helsinki and discarded immediately after the API response. No candidate PII, compensation data, or license information is stored, logged, or used for model training. This eliminates the SOX and SEC audit exposure that comes with third-party data retention.

Compliance & security

Financial services firms face SOX, SEC, and FINRA requirements governing how candidate data is processed and retained. Our zero-storage architecture processes resumes in memory on EU-hosted Helsinki infrastructure and retains nothing after the API response is delivered. No candidate PII, compensation history, or license data is written to disk or shared with sub-processors. For firms requiring on-premise processing, the Docker self-host option keeps all data within your own compliance perimeter.

Frequently asked questions

The parser recognizes Series 7, 63, 65, 66, 79, 24, 99, SIE, and other FINRA registrations as distinct structured credential records. It captures the license type, CRD numbers when listed, and associated dates. This structured output lets your compliance team cross-reference candidates against BrokerCheck or your internal registration databases without manual data entry.
Yes. The parser differentiates between completed designations (CFA Charterholder, CPA licensee) and in-progress candidacies (CFA Level II Candidate, CPA exam candidate). This distinction is returned as structured metadata on the credential record. For hiring managers filling front-office roles where charter status matters, this eliminates the need to manually verify each resume.
SOX and SEC regulations require financial firms to maintain controls over third-party access to sensitive data. Because our parser processes resumes in memory and retains nothing after the response, there is no stored candidate data to audit, no sub-processor data-sharing to document, and no breach notification scenario involving historical resume files. Your compliance team can document the API as a stateless processing tool rather than a data storage vendor.
Yes. Bloomberg Market Concepts (BMC), Bloomberg Data License certifications, and vendor-specific credentials like Refinitiv Eikon training or FactSet certifications are extracted as structured records. The parser also identifies risk management certifications such as FRM, PRM, and ERP that are common in middle-office and risk roles across investment banks.
Yes. The Docker self-host option lets you run the parser entirely within your own infrastructure, behind your firewall and within your existing security controls. No data leaves your network. This is particularly relevant for bulge-bracket banks and asset managers whose information security policies prohibit sending candidate data to external cloud services, even stateless ones.
