Symptom
When uploading resume with resume parsing in external career site, an error appears "Invalid date."
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the external career site and start an application for any job.
- Upload a resume.
- Select Next.
- Observe error as "Invalid Date".
Cause
Resume content includes non-compliant date formats (for example, "20xx" instead of a valid four‑digit year like "2011"), leading to "Invalid Date" validation errors.
Resolution
Ensure resume dates use valid formats (for example, four‑digit years like 2011).
