At my previous job I created something similar for a recruitment sister company. They had a ton of CV's in all kinds of formats (Word, Excel, PDF, rtf, plain text etc). I used Lucene.NET to do the indexing.
Both companies no longer exist and I've needed to find some text in docs of my own. If I have a bit of time I could recreate the app pretty easily.
