DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT AN ON-LINE RECRUITMENT PORTAL

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1  BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

On-line activities have a recent past replaced virtually every form of transactions. This is because of the advent of the internet’s which provide a globle network connection for all such activities. With this technology, many institution have their ten lades spread across the globle. In line with this trend, job search activities and job providers need to join the band  wagon of the globle community in shearing their their information across internet. The project work is base on the nation.

A web portal, also known as a links page, presents information from diverse sources in a unified way. Apart from the standard search engine feature, web portals offer other services such as E-mail, news, stock price, information, databases, and entertainment. Portals provid a way for enterprises to provide a consistent look feel with access control and procedures for multiple applications and databases, which otherwise would have been different entities altogether.

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

Individual website need to be created so that client can access their desired information directly. The sudden increase in the number of recruitments enroll in each school has transcended the manipulation of the existing system used by the school administrators and this prompted a lot of problems which encompass the inaccurate computation of students result by the staffs on the account of non-availability of adequate number of computer systems for the computation.  This is a very ugly development.

 Also, it was very complicated to observe when the enrolment of students should cease since there was no efficient system for the estimation of enrolment ratio to give a signal when the enrolment tends to move beyond the projection.  All these and more are encountered due to the debilitation of the prevailing system used.  It was very difficult to point out students who cheat in the course of examination as attributed to the non-standard measure used in the supervision of the examination.    

The school complained seriously on the unnecessary stress encountered while making the recruitment enrollment manually.

1.3OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

The practical objective of this work is to design and implement an on-line recruitment portal, one of the most important objective of this project is to contribute to academic research work while the subsidiary objective include;

To help employers to post their job offer on-line and their vacant job positions

Providing the possibility for job seekers to build their curriculum vitae (CVs) on-line, look for new job opportunities in industries and organizations, get E-mail notification of interesting job vacancies and apply directly through the website.

To help organizations attract, test, recruit, employ and retain qualify staff with minimal amount of administration.

The government can also review and deploy it to other sectors

Private individuals can also find it interesting 

1.5SCOPE OF THE STUDY

This project will go as far as deploying web technologies in the implementation.

Dreamweaver will be used as the major development tools. Database connection using MySQL will extensively be covered in this work, studies were carried out in the various institutions that conduct interviews and recruitments. The scheme used is closed tag to the information collected at the point of research all forms and database designed followed the pattern of the manual means by the employer of labour.
