 ABSTRACT

With the advent of applying information technology in day to day life,

searching for jobs has become an easy task for the job seekers. Job
seekers just need to post their profile in the portal and need to search
for the opportunities for which their profile matches. The project
interface designed not only to fulfill this task but also to provide
various additional features.

This portal provides advanced search options for job seekers. Job
seekers can also get additional support while preparing their profiles
in order to gather additional attention from job providers.

A Job portal service was developed for creating an interactive job

vacancy form for candidates. This web application manages updates
both from the job seekers as well as the companies. It’s unique
development methodology helps in acquiring the client and candidate
information and separating them according to the job requirements
and vacancies.

The online access to it provides details of the job. An employer being

registered in the web site has the facility to use the services. Being an
authorized user he can publish vacancy details and can search no. of
Employees on portal and also, he can search candidates on basis of
the key skill which employee provides on registration.

INTRODUCTION

8
1.1 Introduction

The online job portal system is a platform between job seekers (students) and
job providers (companies). The Student or Job seeker can easily find and apply
for a job by logging into the system. The Employer or company can easily get
expert employees from our job portal site by posting a job. The job portal
website is commonplace between job seekers and companies.

When a job seeker can log in to his account then he can get a notification of
company lists that match his profile or education details. So job seekers can
easily apply for this job and they can also send messages to the company for
other inquiries.

When the company logs in account, the company or employee can get an alert
of job seeker lists that match all criteria for the posted job.

1.2 Background
The traditional methods of finding jobs through the newspapers or the reference
have become obsolete. Hence, to solve the problem, numerous job portals are
available on the internet. These job portals provide a platform for both job
seekers and recruiters, but the risk of fraud has increased in the present
amalgamated world. The recruiters or the job seekers believe that their problem
has been solved, but they fall prey to the frauds and are unaware of the facts
about their data misuse. Hence, people need to find a genuine job portal to
ensure that their data is safe and free from fraud.

The other problem that we have identified is that if a freelancer/contractor or

any person who wants to build a team and who is previously a job-seeker in the
same platform wants to advertise an opening, no current existing portals are
giving privilege to a person to do both job-seeking and hiring. Some web portals
do not have mobile applications for easy notification access. The people are
facing issues while using web portals in their mobiles. While rejecting an
application by the recruiter, the job seeker usually does not get feedback for the
rejection. Our system also aims to solve this problem.

9
1.3 Objective of the Project

The proposed Software can be viewed as a mechanism by which it can reduce

unemployment and increase productivity. Unemployment is reduced when
information on job openings is made available to currently unemployed people
who may otherwise found it difficult to obtain this information. Productivity
increases when employee organizations are provided with a wide choice of
available skills and thereby enable them to select the best resources. Earlier,
since they lacked this choice, they may have settled for what was available
rather than what was the best available. Information on job openings provides
not just the scope for employment but also the scope for choice of job. People
who look forward to their next move in their career can now look at the site to
identify prospective organizations where their desired job openings exist.

1.4 Purpose

The purpose of the Software Conditions Specification (SRS) document is to

describe the external structure of the Online Job Portal System. Conditions
Specification defines and describes the operations, interfaces, performance, and
quality assurance conditions of the Online Job Portal System. The document
also describes the inoperative conditions similar to the user interfaces. It also
describes the design constraints that are to be considered when the system is to
be designed, and other factors necessary to give a complete and comprehensive
description of the conditions for the software. The Software Conditions
Specification (SRS) captures the complete software conditions for the system or
a portion of the system. Conditions described in this document are deduced
from the Vision Document set for the Online Job Portal System.

SYSTEM ANALYSIS

13
 2.1 Exiting System

1. Time Consuming: It’s time-consuming especially if you are new to posting

projects to these platforms.
2. Shady Reliability: Not all freelancers from a job portal can be completely relied
on.
3. Members are not pre-filtered: Job portals like a Desk, Freelancer, Elance, and
so on are designed to be the meeting place of employers and job seekers.

4. Cannot Upload and Download the latest updates.

5. No use of Web Services and Remoting.

6. Risk of mismanagement and of data when the project is under development.

7. Less Security.

8. No proper coordination between different Applications and Users.

9. Fewer Users – Friendly

2.2 Proposed System

Software development is a challenging activity. Today the systems are steadily

growing in size. They are progressively becoming more complex. User
requirement becoming are tending to be dynamic in nature, challenging
technical scenario shorter dead times and no availability of personal make. The
task of development more challenging as the management always depends upon
accurate and timely information and arises for powerful tool, which could
process data from different areas, interconnected and produce the information in
time.

1. Cost-effectiveness: It's an affordable solution.

2. Regular job updates: Stay informed about new job opportunities.
3. Wider audience reach: Reach more potential employers.
4. Ease of use: Convenient and user-friendly.
5. Dynamic job ads: Customize your job postings

14
2.3 Feasibility Study
Feasibility is the study of whether or not project is worth doing. The objective
of a feasibility study is not to solve the problem but to acquire a sense of its
scope. It is more of research on the System. Once it has been determined that a
project is feasible, one can go ahead and prepare the project specification which
finalizes the project requirements. During the study, the problem definition is
crystallized and aspects of the problem to be included in the system are
determined. Consequently, costs and benefits are estimated with greater
accuracy at this stage. The result of the feasibility study is a formal proposal.

In the conduct of the feasibility study, we have gone through followings

distinct, but inter-related types of feasibility:
• Technical Feasibility.
• Economic Feasibility.
• Operational Feasibility.

2.4 Requirement Analysis

The main objective of Online Job Portal is to manage Job seekers, keeping track
of their progress and performance across all types of training activities by
contrast, and manages content or objects that are served up to the right person at
the right time.
The Requirements are broadly divided into two groups:
• Functional requirements.
• Non-functional requirements.

Functional Requirements

The main purpose of functional requirements within the requirement

specification document is to define all the activities or operations that take place
in the system. These are derived through interactions with the users of the
system.
A summary of major functions that the software will perform:
• A Login facility for enabling only authorized access to the system.

15
 • Admin will be able to add/modify/delete information about different jobs
and topics.
• Admin will be able to add/modify/delete information of users.
• Admin will be able to generate printable reports.
• Admin will be able to create/modify/delete existing user accounts.

Non-Functional Requirements

The non-functional requirements consist of:

• Guidelines.
• Validation Criteria.

Guidelines

We have discussed mandatory requirements in the previous section. The

requirements in this section should be taken as suggestions & they should be
thought of as recommendations to further enhance the usability of the system.
• The system should display a home page for users to choose.
• The system should display users’ requests in a reasonable time.
• The system should be designed in such a way that it is easy to enhance it
with more functionality.
• It should be scalable and easily maintainable.

Validation Criteria

• Only authorized users will have access to the system.

• Users will have a unique user id.
• User id cannot be blank.
• User name cannot be blank.

19
2.9 Software Development Life Cycle

At present in the software industry there are various software engineering

paradigms, which are used in software development. Out of these software
engineering paradigms we have selected “The Linear Sequential Model” for the
development of Online Job Portal software. It is also sometimes called
“Waterfall Model” suggests a Systematic, sequential approach to software
development that begins at the system level and progresses through analysis,
design, coding, testing, and support.

22
3.2 Data Dictionary

A data dictionary lists all the data items appearing in a DFD, i.e. a data
dictionary lists all data glows and the contents of all data stores appearing on the
DFD. A dada dictionary lists the purpose of all data items and the definition of
all composite data items in terms of their component data items.

A data dictionary is very important in the software development process

because of the following reason:
• A data dictionary lists standard terminology for all relevant data for use by
engineer have a tendency to used different terms to refer to the same data, which
unnecessary cause confusion.
• The data dictionary provides the analysts with means to determine the
definition of different data structure in terms of their component elements.

3.3 Use Case Diagram

A use case diagram is a type of UML diagram that shows the interactions
between the users (actors) and the system. It can summarize the details of your
system’s users and their goals. It uses a set of specialized symbols and
connectors to visualize the different types of roles in a system and how those
roles interact with the system. A use case diagram can help you analyse various
systems and design better solutions.

3.4 ER Diagram

The Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) is the graphical notation of the

relationship between data object and attributes. The ERD was originally
proposed by Peter Chen for the design of relational database systems and has
been extended by others.
Primary components identified for ERD are:
• Data objects
• Attributes
• Relationship
• Various type indicators.

There are three basic elements in ER models:

• Entities are the "things" about which we seek information.
• Attributes are the data we collect about the entities.
• Relationships provide the structure needed to draw information from
multiple entities.

I have designed an E-R diagram for these activities. The following table
summarizes the elements of a data flow diagram and the symbols used to denote
them:

Entity:
An entity or data object is a representation of almost any composite information
that must be understood by the system or software. Rectangle represents the
data object/entity.

Attributes:
Attributes define the properties of a data object and take on one of three
different characteristics. Ellipse represents the attribute of entities.

The entities in the ER model are:

• Job
• Job Seeker
• Experience
• Vacancy
• Employer
• Company

CONCLUSION &

FUTURE WORK

31
Conclusion

Online Job Portals stands as a revolutionizing element in the sphere of

recruitment. They act as a communication bridge between applicants
and recruiters facilitating their requirements. This web application
helps organizations to have a greater exposure to the candidate pool
and also job seekers facilitating wide search of jobs matching their
interests. The system is menu driven, easily maintainable, and
accessible. Handling the system is easy and provides timely
information about job status, location, and category. We can say that
this system is useful for job seekers and recruiters.

The system is very beneficial with better service and increment of

features. This web application fulfills both functional and non-
functional requirements which are mentioned above. The system
saves a lot of time and effort of the same. Only authentic people can
use this system. Job seekers can make resumes using this web
application. I have gained a very good experience working with
various technologies at every phase. Development of this project
boosted my confidence in web development.
