unqualified candidates in an automated way. Lower costs to the organization. Also, posting jobs online

is cheaper than advertising in the newspapers. No intermediaries. Ease and Convenience The greatest benefits of a Job website is that there is no

fee for the job finder

Chapter 3Developmental Framework The design model used in this project is the RUP model. RUP is a method of managing OO Software Development,

is probably the most widely used process for software development

It divides the development process into four distinct phases

Advantages of RUP Software Development Less time is required for integration as the process

of integration goes on throughout the software development life cycle.

This is a complete methodology in itself with an emphasis on accurate documentation

It is proactively able to resolve the project risks associated with the client's evolving requirements requiring careful change request management

The development time required is less due to reuse of components.

5. There is online training and tutorial available for this process.

Benefits of Rational Unified Process

Easily resolves risks Control changes: Flexible patterns: Efficient delivery process: Supports iterative development

Chapter 4System Analysis & Design This chapter will discuss the analysis of all data collected

from the pilot study and the interpretation of the results. The data analysis was obtained via the tools provided by

SurveyPlanet.com and the results are interpreted based on this data.

Requirement Specification The system is aimed at reducing a lot of manual work

which is time consuming and tedious. The system can provide better security and control over

data by using password protected user profiles. Data redundancy can be avoided, information retrieval is

faster

Module DescriptionThe project is divided into 4 main modules:

1. Jobseeker Module. 2. Employer Module.

3. Applicant registration 4. Administration Module.

Jobseeker module, which is further sub-divided into:Register with the website. Manage Multiple Resumes. Edit Personal Profile. Manage Favorite Jobs and Reviews. Change Password. Search for best available jobs

Employer module, which is further sub-divided into: Manage Job Listings and its documents. Edit Company Profile. Search Resumes and View Resume. Change Password. Check for available applications.

Manage languages and edit currency / date format. Manage administrator users. Manage employers along with their job listings. Manage advertisers and their banner ads. Manage jobseekers and their resume profiles. Edit form fields using Listing Fields Editor. Approve job listings from the Approval Center.

Chapter 5Hardware and Software RequirementsThe successful running of any project primarily depends upon hardware and software used in its compilation.

Hardware Requirements Server Configuration, Machine: Intel Core i3 or above Clock Speed: 2.5GHz, Memory: Minimum 256 MB RAM Hard Disk Space: 8 GB Display: 14” LED Monitor

Software Requirements Operating System: Windows XP and above RDBMS:

MySQL as a Back-end Front-end: PHP scripting language, HTML, JavaScript

and CSS Web Server: Wamp Server 2.5, USBW Web server and

ooo web hosting Adobe Dreamweaver: CS3 Notepads: Notepad++ and Notepad 2 Web browser: Inter Explorer, Google Chrome or Mozilla

Firefox

Overview of PHP Technology PHP is a programming language for building dynamic,

interactive Web sites.Overview of HTML Technology Is a language used to create hypertext documents that have

hyperlinks embedded in them.

Overview of Java Script Technology Is a general purpose prototype based, object oriented

scripting language It is designed to be embedded in diverse application and systems

Overview of MySQL Technology Is a relational database management system, and ships

with no GUI tools to administer MySQL databases or manage data

System Evaluation:Software evaluation was conducted to find out the acceptability of the software. Software evaluation was based on Functionality,

Portability, Reliability, Maintainability, Availability, Performance, and Security

Testing Testing is the process of executing a program with the

intention of finding errors

Test Objectives

To identify the features of the system that will be tested. To identify and define all the activities necessary to prepare for and

conduct the testing process on the Online Job Portal System.

To define the pass/fail criteria for each item that will be tested.

To identify the deliverables of the testing phase.

To define any suspension criteria and resumption techniques.

To discuss the test techniques being used to test the Online Job

Portal.

To prevent defects. To make sure that the end result meets the business and user

requirements.

Testing ProcessTesting is a process rather than a single activity. This process starts from test planning then designing test cases, preparing for

execution and evaluating status till the test closure.

Testing Techniques These are the Validation activities. Unit Tests, Integration

Tests, System Tests and Acceptance Tests are few of the Dynamic Testing methodologies

Software can be tested in two ways, in another words, one can distinguish two different methods: White box testing Black box testing

Future ImprovementIn terms of enhancement of the software, the resume and job advertisements could have more fields so that more details about the job could be added Multiple user interfaces Support for large database Oracle for database Live chat messenger, where the employers and

candidates can communicate with each other Uploading profile picture
