Fig 3.1: System Architecture

    1. Web Scraping and Data Processing

      The system begins by extracting job-related information from carrier pages. This is achieved using web scraping tools such as Selenium, BeautifulSoup, Lxml, and Watchdog, which are capable of handling dynamic web content. The scraped information, which includes job roles, required skills, and job descriptions, is processed using data libraries like pandas and NumPy to ensure a structured and clean format. The processed data is then converted into a standardized JSON structure for further analysis and integration.

    2. Job Information Extraction

      The JSON data is fed into the Llama 3.1 large language model, which is fine-tuned for extracting and summarizing key job attributes. These include roles, responsibilities, and skill requirements. The extracted information serves as the foundation for the personalized email drafting process. By leveraging the models contextual understanding capabilities, the system ensures the accuracy and relevance of the extracted details.

    3. Cold Email Drafting

      The email drafting engine integrates the Llama 3.1 model to generate highly customized and professional cold emails. The engine uses the job information to tailor the content, ensuring alignment with the specific requirements of the job posting. Relevant portfolio links are incorporated to enhance the appeal of the emails, creating a more personalized outreach. This module is designed to handle bulk email generation requests, facilitating high-volume operations.

    4. Scalability and Real-Time Processing

      To handle large-scale email generation, the system utilizes Kubernetes and openTelemetry for scalable deployment and monitoring.
