Here is a post about how to add fields to the user.

There are other links found via Google but I wanted to give you the least confusing one. Add your age, experience and salary fields to the user registration and then configure your search engine to look for those fields (I know nothing about apache solr).

Hi Earnie, Thanks for reply. Users register their details in site.
I did not understand "I would add fields to the user entity" .
What is user entity ? Kindly provide more details.
Do you mean the fields like age, experience, salary etc should be added to solr index or it will be stored somewhere within Drupal tables.
Best Regards kamal

If it were me I would add fields to the user entity assuming your submitters need to register. If no registration, I would add fields to the node entity. You can then use those fields to filter the data. The other option is to use three taxonomy types and allow the data to be tags.

Dear Drupal Experts Currently I use apache solr 3.6.2 for search engine in a Drupal 715 environment. Apache solr, indexes the document, I search based on the keyword and gets document list. So far so good.
I need to enhance it. When I add the document (actually these are resumes), I need to add certain fields like age, experience years, salary etc.
So that while searching the documents, I can add the filters accordingly to get more relevant documents.
Now my BIIGEST worry is how do I proceed.
- Do I need to modify the schema file to add fields for age,
experience, salary
- Do I need to implement some special hooks in my custom module, so
that I can add the fields like age, experience (any examples if you have please share) during indexing.
- While searching, do I need to implement any specific hook, so that I
can add the filters for age, experience etc.., if so , pls share the examples if you have.
Thanks Kamal
