2. Define Relationships:
One-to-many:
A company can have many jobs (company_id is a foreign key in the jobs
table).
One-to-many:
A job can have many applications (job_id is a foreign key in the
applications table).
One-to-many:
An applicant can have many applications (applicant_id is a foreign key in
the applications table).
Many-to-many:
An applicant can have many skills, and a skill can be possessed by many
applicants (using a junction table like applicant_skills with applicant_id
and skill_id as foreign keys).
3. Design Tables: (table: tbl_*, field: fld_*, auto-increment: fld_ai_*)
jobs table (tbl_job):
o job_id (INT, PRIMARY KEY, AUTO_INCREMENT)
o job_title (VARCHAR(255), NOT NULL)
o job_description (TEXT)
o company_id (INT, FOREIGN KEY referencing
companies.company_id)
o salary (DECIMAL(10, 2))
o location (VARCHAR(255))
o posted_date (DATE)
o job_category_id (INT, FOREIGN KEY referencing
job_category.job_category_id)
applicants table:
o applicant_id (INT, PRIMARY KEY, AUTO_INCREMENT)
o first_name (VARCHAR(255), NOT NULL)
o last_name (VARCHAR(255), NOT NULL)
o email (VARCHAR(255), UNIQUE, NOT NULL)
o phone_number (VARCHAR(20))
o resume_url (VARCHAR(255))
companies table:
o company_id (INT, PRIMARY KEY, AUTO_INCREMENT)
o company_name (VARCHAR(255), NOT NULL)
o company_description (TEXT)
o website (VARCHAR(255))
o location (VARCHAR(255))
skills table:
skill_id (INT, PRIMARY KEY, AUTO_INCREMENT)
skill_name (VARCHAR(255), NOT NULL)
applications table:
application_id (INT, PRIMARY KEY, AUTO_INCREMENT)
applicant_id (INT, FOREIGN KEY referencing
applicants.applicant_id)
job_id (INT, FOREIGN KEY referencing jobs.job_id)
application_date (DATE)
status (VARCHAR(50))
function enforceWordLimit($textarea, maxWords) {
$textarea.on('input', function () {
let words = this.value.trim().split(/\s+/).filter(w => w.length
> 0);
if (words.length > maxWords) {
// Trim to maxWords and update textarea value
this.value = words.slice(0, maxWords).join(' ');
}
// Optionally, show word count
$('#charCount4').text(` ${words.length}/${maxWords} `);
});
// Usage for artsum textarea (500 word limit)
enforceWordLimit($('#artsum'), 500);
