Android Job Portal System

1) Background/ Problem Statement

An employment portal is an application that facilitates the search for

employment and ranges from large, generalized sites to specialized
working groups for work categories such as engineering, law, insurance,
social work, teaching, and developing mobile applications.
Users can usually submit their resumes and send them to potential
employers and recruiters for review, while employers and recruiters
can post job postings and search for potential employees. Niche job
directories begin to play a bigger role in providing jobs and employees
with more goals for the candidate or employer.
Our android-based Job Portal System will provide a very specific way to
eliminate and reduce the time for the most appropriate role. The
determination is to allow communication between the interested
parties and complete the task of recruitment quickly.
 2) Working of the Project

Recruitment is often reported in the literature as the process of

analyzing the job requirements, pooling together a network of qualified
candidates, and hiring the best-fit person for the role in order to gain a
competitive advantage. Selection is the process of choosing the best-fit
person for the role from the generated pool of qualified candidates.

A job portal is a platform dedicated to online information about

recruiters as well as job seekers. A job portal helps both job seekers and
recruiters find the right organization for the employees. In the case of
job seekers, according to their educational qualification, experience,
and their preferences, the job portal shows the list of companies to the
job seeker. And, to the recruiters, provides the suitable candidates from
a pool of lacks.

The objective of the Job Portal System is to develop a system to enable

interaction between employers and applicants. In this project, the
front-end involves XML, Android-Java and the back-end involves
MSSQL. The IDE used is Android Studio.

 5) Project Life Cycle

The waterfall model is a classical model used in the system

development life cycle to create a system with a linear and sequential
approach. It is termed a waterfall because the model develops
systematically from one phase to another in a downward fashion. The
waterfall approach does not define the process to go back to the
previous phase to handle changes in requirements. The waterfall
approach is the earliest approach that was used for software
development.
