The HR department at a previous employ allegedly paid a lot of money for such a utility. I used it and it wasn't very good. Incredibly difficult requirement.

It greatly depends on the constraints you put on it:

in one extreme (the easy way), you don't even allow the user to upload the CV: instead you make he/she fill the fields of your form. This way you automatically get the info you need.

in the other extreme (the very hard way), you allow the user to upload his/her CV in any format he/she likes. Then you have to handle appropriately the file format and parse the content in order to extract the required info. No need to say this is a very difficult (if actually feasible) task
