ABSTRACT

Our current generation uses the internet for everything right from shopping to getting hired. In this project, we attempt to address and minimize the
gap between the job seeker and the recruiter through this ONLINE JOB PORTAL (Web Application) using python Django. This is done by considering
details of both the job seeker and the recruiter and by applying a variety of filters to satisfy their requirements. Job seekers can search for vacancies
according to their qualifications, skills, and experience as well as a recruiter can easily find suitable and eligible candidates using the job seeker’s
resume and profile details. In addition to this, there will be an administrator to manage and authenticate the system services. We are using MVT, a
software designing architecture, to design this system. In the existing system, they have the book store feature, where users can access books based
on their requirements but in our project, we are providing informative videos on how to face interviews and videos regarding their career necessities;
the existing system provides updates on new job availabilities posted (within 2–3 days) but we are going to provide updates on all job availabilities
posted within the past 15 days along with their opening and closing dates and also add the feature of detecting the search errors using LIKE operator
(pattern matching) and string matching algorithm.

Keywords: Job seeker, Recruiter, Administrator, Job portal, Python django, LIKE Operator, MVT, String matching algorithm.

EXISTING SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE DIAGRAM

In the existing system, the employer can post a job, and job seekers can
apply for a job based on their qualifications and skills. It also contains
a resume-building feature through which the job seeker can build his
resume. Job seekers could find a job matching their resumes with any
company’s requirements [3]. The job seekers were able to find a job as
per their qualifications, skills, and requirements. Numerous filters were
provided to categorize the job seeker and employer needs. Recruiters
can maintain their profiles, track how many job seekers have applied,
and manage a database of available candidates. Added automated

matching algorithm and Rabin karpalgo algorithm which matches the
pattern of the string and checks it. With the help of a like operator,
we match similar occurrences in a given word and suggest the exact
words that the user is looking for. For example, if the user searches for
a word that is wrongly typed or has its letters jumbled, then the string
matching algorithm corrects the wrongly typed word with the correct
spelling.

The model acts as an interface for the data. Its responsibility is to
maintain the data. It makes up the logical data structure of the entire
application and is represented by a database. The view is your web
