About This Project

Instructions

This capstone project involves designing a dynamic job posting builder tailored for HR professionals at large organizations. The builder will guide users through a step-by-step process to create comprehensive job postings, offering a real-time preview, customization options, and the ability to save templates for future use. This project will challenge you to implement complex form handling, dynamic content rendering, and responsive design principles.

User Stories

  1. Step-by-Step Form: Implement a multi-step form allowing users to input job details such as title, description, requirements, and benefits.
  2. Real-time Preview: Provide a real-time preview of the job posting as it's being created, enabling users to see how their input affects the final output instantly.
  3. Custom Sections: Allow users to add custom sections or questions for applicants, giving HR professionals the flexibility to tailor job postings to specific needs.
  4. Template Saving and Retrieval: Enable users to save their job posting templates and retrieve them for future postings, streamlining the job creation process for recurring roles.
  5. Rich Text Editing: Incorporate rich text editing capabilities for the job description and requirements sections, enabling HR professionals to format text and add lists or bullet points for clarity.
  6. Preview Customization Options: Provide options to customize the look and feel of the job posting preview, such as choosing different fonts or color schemes, to align with the company's branding.

Stretch Goals

  1. Drag-and-Drop Interface: Implement a drag-and-drop interface to allow users to rearrange sections of the job posting easily, enhancing the customization experience.
  2. Accessibility Compliance: Ensure the job posting builder meets accessibility standards, making it usable for everyone, including those with disabilities.
  3. Advanced State Management: Utilize advanced state management techniques or libraries to handle the application's complexity, particularly for managing the dynamic forms and user inputs.

FAQ

Why should I build this project instead of one from scratch?

In a professional context, you're rarely starting from scratch. Curricular Projects are designed to give you a constrained real world problem so you can focus on practicing the essential skills you'll use as a professional developer, and to surface specific areas to continue studying.

Can I get help if I'm stuck on a project?

Our projects are designed to be a real world assessment of your skills, like the take home assignment during a job interview. Getting yourself unstuck is part of the skills measured. As a result, we offer very little help and direction.

However, if you encounter issues with the setup, or if you find something isn't working right that should be working, you can contact us at support@curricular.dev and we'll help you out.

Do you provide official solutions to projects?

We do not provide official solutions to projects. There are many ways to solve each of our projects. Coding is a journey, so our goal isn't for you to get the "right answer." Instead, our projects are about you flexing your skills to arrive at a solution, practicing talking about your code, and giving you helpful feedback on ways to improve.

Can I get feedback on my work?

Yes! Subscribers to Curricular Pro get their project solutions graded, with personalized feedback.

Where can I ask a question that isn't answered here?
