We'll have to convert our PDF to an image in order to use it.\n\nHere, we'll use a tool called **Stirling PDF** which can provide this functionality and can be accessed via a HTTP API. Feel free to use an alternative solution if available, otherwise follow the instructions on the Stirling PDF website to set up your own instance.\n\nAdditionally, we'll reduce the resolution of our converted image to speed up the processing done by the LLM. I find that about 75% of an A4 (30x40cm) is a good balance."

Most newer LLMs are by default multimodal and we'll use Google's Gemini here as an example. By processing each candidate's resume as an image, we avoid scenarios where text extraction fails due to layout issues or by picking up \"hidden\" or malicious prompts planted to subvert AI automated processing.\n\nThis vision model ensures the resume is read and understood as a human would. The hidden bypass is therefore rendered mute since the AI also cannot \"see\" the special prompt embedded in the document."
