Build an Online Resume Submission Portal for Companies

Create a professional platform where candidates can easily apply for job openings, upload their resumes, and companies can review applications, manage talent pipelines, and streamline their hiring workflow.

Why Build a Resume Submission Portal?

Recruitment processes are moving online fast. Building this project teaches you user authentication, file uploads (resumes), form handling, dashboard management for recruiters, and basic applicant tracking system (ATS) concepts — highly valuable in HR-tech space.

Core Features of the Resume Submission Portal

Candidates can browse available jobs, fill out application forms, upload their resumes securely, and companies can manage job postings, view applications, and track the hiring stages easily from an internal dashboard.

Key Features to Implement

Job Listings and Filters

Display job openings posted by companies with search and filter options based on role, location, and experience.

Candidate Application and Resume Upload

Candidates can apply directly by submitting details and uploading resumes in PDF, DOC, or DOCX formats securely.

Company Admin Dashboard

Recruiters can view all incoming applications, download resumes, shortlist candidates, and track application statuses (Applied, Shortlisted, Rejected).

Notifications and Status Updates

Optional: Email notifications sent to candidates for application confirmations and status changes (shortlisted/rejected).

How the Resume Portal Works

Companies post job openings. Candidates browse listings, submit their applications and resumes. Recruiters review submissions in a centralized dashboard, update candidate statuses, and optionally send notifications — creating a streamlined online hiring experience.

  • Companies register and post job openings with descriptions and requirements.
  • Candidates search, view job details, fill application forms, and upload resumes securely.
  • Recruiters review all applications in an organized dashboard, filter candidates, and update application statuses.
  • Optional: Candidates receive email updates about their application status automatically.
  • Optional: Add resume parsing features later to auto-read key details (bonus feature).
