 ABSTRACT

JOB HUNT

Finding jobs that best suits the interests and skill set is quite a challenging task for
the job seekers. The difficulties arise from not having proper knowledge on the
organization’s objective, their work culture and current job openings. In addition,
finding the right candidate with desired qualifications to fill their current job
openings is an important task for the recruiters of any organization. Online Job
Search Portals have certainly made job seeking convenient on both sides. Job Hunt
is the solution where recruiter as well as the job seeker meet aiming at fulfilling
their individual requirement. They are the cheapest as well as the fastest source of
communication reaching wide range of audience on just a single click irrespective
of their geographical distance.

The web application “Job Hunt” provides an easy and convenient search
application for the job seekers to find their desired jobs and for the recruiters to
find the right candidate. Job seekers from any background can search for the
current job openings. Job seekers can register with the application and update their
details and skill set. They can search for available jobs and apply to their desired
positions.

1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction of the Project

Job Hunt is a web application, which serves jobseekers to find available job vacancies and
Employers to identify eligible job seekers with the prospect of selecting the most qualified
candidates. The only way to select best-qualified candidate is to have a pool of eligible
applicants, which is possible by drawing the interest of individuals in the market. Job Hunt best
serve this purpose. E-recruitment has become the standard means for employers and job
seekers to meet their respective objectives. The traditional methods for recruitment includes Job
fairs, University career employment services, Employee referrals, advertising in the newspapers,
televisions etc. With the advancement in technology and growth of internet usage, the e-
recruitment has revolutionized the way organizations hire and candidates search for jobs. With
the Online Job search portals, the recruitment process is speeded up at every stage from job
postings, to receiving applications from candidates, interviewing process. The cost of
searching/posting jobs will be much less compared to the traditional way of advertising. Job
Hunt stands as an effective means for Employers to outline the job vacancies, responsibilities
and qualifications to attract jobseekers. Using the portal jobseekers can extensively search for
jobs in companies, organizations and regions they may otherwise have not learnt. In addition,
candidates/Employers can write a review about an organization, which might help them to
change the way things are done.
1.2 Existing System

The existing system for job recruitment includes traditional methods like Employment agencies,
advertising through newspapers, televisions and radios, college fairs etc., which are too slow and
stressful. With the advancement of internet, jobseekers rely on the online job portals, which
makes the job search efficient. Again, most of these are limited to the web/desktop applications,
which requires jobseekers to have a laptop or desktop connected to internet and is not handy.

1.3 Problems of the Existing System

 Time Consuming
 Stressful
 Challenging
 Doesn’t provide secure and portable application
 Doesn’t provide all other related services under this portal

1.4 Proposed System

Job Hunt is a Java-based web application that provides functionalities of e-recruitment on

desktop and on portable devices like Android based smart phones/tablets. Job Hunt is developed
to provide an effective means for the employers to post job openings with required qualification
to have a better penetration into the job market and jobseekers to find out the information
regarding the current openings in the organization.

1.5 Benefits of Proposed System

 Cost and Time efficient

 Portable
  Faster and Efficient System
 Wider range services available under one roof
 Provides efficient search mechanism using dynamic query generation

1.6 Literature Survey and Review

Holm (2012) found that the first task of recruiting is to identify the hiring needs. The
Organization relies on Human Resources plots to understand the requirement for long-term and
short-term strategies. It is these strategies that will underline the path the organization will
utilize. Once hiring needs are identified, the subtask of creating a job description, job
specifications and identifying the appropriate pool of applicants is crucial. The one responsible
for the job analysis proceeds to review the job elements and essential knowledge and skills for
the position. There are many methods, for example; the individual interview and group interview
methods, where an individual or group of people currently in a similar role can discuss with
Human Resources the job specifications and expectations. When a role does not currently exist,
the technical conference method is of value where subject matter experts who have extensive
knowledge of the main job duties can give input to the Human Resources
(DeCenzo;Robbins;&Verhulst, 2013). This stage is the base of the recruitment process.

Holm’s (2012) second stage of the recruiting process is to attract potential ideal candidates by
preparing the job announcement. Ideally, the recruitment source and advertisement would be
chosen by the industry and position the company is requesting to reach the target audience. In
order for a candidate to know about the job, the job announcement must be attractive, loud and
clear. The findings from Holm’s (2012) thesis were that there was a difference between the
paper-based and the electronic-based recruitment process. From the findings, Holm’s found that
the electronic-based recruitment process began with few electronic tools for line managers to
commence the recruitment process, e.g. line managers were putting their hiring needs into a
Word document and sending it to the responsible recruiter.
2 ANALYSIS

2.1 Requirement Analysis

Requirement Analysis is the first and important step in the Software development activity for
building robust and user-friendly applications. I have started working on determining the
functionalities that the application should provide. I have done a good amount of research on
existing systems and the disadvantages of those. Once the functional requirements are finalized, I
did research on the current technologies that are widely used in the industry and decided to use
Spring MVC, hibernate replacing the traditional way of developing web applications using
Struts, Servlets and JDBC.
