The project was about designing an integrated online recruitment solution for the sponsor. The recruitment industry in India for the last ten years is depending more on the online data base of candidates on various portals.

The project examined the task flow for recruiters and candidates in two different ways that gave access to the contact details of the candidates to the recruiter. Subsequently, a series of steps based on matching job requirements to the candidate’s profile is followed. The candidate’s latest status of preferences and interests is taken into consideration for further processes of screening, short-listing, and interviews before the job offer is made; this is done offline or with the help of applicant tracking software. User research focused on finding out the user pain points and their mental model involved in the entire process of recruitment.

The design concept allowed for a closed communication between recruiter and the candidates, tracking the overall status of a mandate, sharing, comparing, short listing, team interaction, and client involvement during recruiting. It reduced the usage of offline software in consultancies. The system also enabled an additional feature to manage the résumés from other online portals. The system is designed to fasten up the entire process of recruitment, generate quality output, and reduce confusion between candidates, recruiters, and clients.

This project was a good opportunity to be a part of India’s online recruitment story and the project hopes to transform the user experience and the user’s known and unknown expectations to a different level.
