System Overview

The Campus Recruitment System includes the following features:

• Student Registration and Profile Management: Allow students to register, create and manage their profiles, and upload resumes.
• Company Registration and Job Posting: Enable companies to register, post job openings, and review student applications.
• Application Tracking: Track student applications, schedule interviews, and manage recruitment processes.
• Notifications and Alerts: Send notifications to students and companies regarding application status, interview schedules, and job offers.
• Reporting and Analytics: Generate reports on recruitment activities, student placements, and company engagement.

Implementation Guide

Follow these steps to develop the Campus Recruitment System:

1. Define Requirements and Choose Technology Stack

   Determine the core features and select appropriate technologies for development:

   • Frontend: Use frameworks like React, Angular, or Vue.js for a responsive and interactive user interface.
   • Backend: Implement server-side logic with Node.js, PHP, or Python using frameworks like Express.js, Laravel, or Django.
   • Database: Store student and company data, job postings, and application records using relational databases like MySQL or PostgreSQL.

2. Develop Student Registration and Profile Management

   Create functionalities for student registration, profile creation, and resume uploads:

   
                           // Example PHP code for student registration
                           if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
                               $studentName = $_POST['student_name'];
                               $email = $_POST['email'];
                               $resume = $_FILES['resume'];
                               
                               // Save resume file and student data into the database
                               $resumePath = 'uploads/' . basename($resume['name']);
                               move_uploaded_file($resume['tmp_name'], $resumePath);
                               $stmt = $pdo->prepare("INSERT INTO students (name, email, resume) VALUES (?, ?, ?)");
                               $stmt->execute([$studentName, $email, $resumePath]);
                               
                               echo "Student registered successfully!";
                           }
                       

3. Implement Company Registration and Job Posting

   Develop features for company registration, job posting, and managing job applications:

   
                           // Example PHP code for company registration
                           if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
                               $companyName = $_POST['company_name'];
                               $email = $_POST['email'];
                               
                               // Insert company data into the database
                               $stmt = $pdo->prepare("INSERT INTO companies (name, email) VALUES (?, ?)");
                               $stmt->execute([$companyName, $email]);
                               
                               echo "Company registered successfully!";
                           }
                           
                           // Example PHP code for posting a job
                           if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
                               $companyId = $_POST['company_id'];
                               $jobTitle = $_POST['job_title'];
                               $jobDescription = $_POST['job_description'];
                               
                               // Insert job posting into the database
                               $stmt = $pdo->prepare("INSERT INTO jobs (company_id, title, description) VALUES (?, ?, ?)");
                               $stmt->execute([$companyId, $jobTitle, $jobDescription]);
                               
                               echo "Job posted successfully!";
                           }
                       

4. Develop Application Tracking

   Implement features to track student applications, schedule interviews, and manage recruitment activities:

   
                           // Example PHP code for tracking applications
                           if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
                               $applicationId = $_POST['application_id'];
                               $status = $_POST['status'];
                               
                               // Update application status in the database
                               $stmt = $pdo->prepare("UPDATE applications SET status = ? WHERE id = ?");
                               $stmt->execute([$status, $applicationId]);
                               
                               echo "Application status updated!";
                           }
                       

5. Implement Notifications and Alerts

   Develop a notification system to inform students and companies about application status, interviews, and job offers:

   
                           // Example PHP code for sending notifications
                           function sendNotification($recipientEmail, $subject, $message) {
                               mail($recipientEmail, $subject, $message);
                           }
                           
                           // Example usage
                           sendNotification('student@example.com', 'Interview Scheduled', 'Your interview is scheduled for ...');
                       

6. Generate Reports and Analytics

   Implement reporting tools to generate analytics on recruitment activities, student placements, and company engagement:

   
                           // Example PHP code for generating a recruitment report
                           $stmt = $pdo->query("SELECT * FROM applications WHERE date BETWEEN '2024-01-01' AND '2024-12-31'");
                           $applicationData = $stmt->fetchAll();
                           
                           // Process and display the report
                       

7. Testing and Deployment

   Thoroughly test the application to ensure it works correctly. Deploy the application to a web server or cloud platform, ensuring it is secure and scalable.
