OsJobberIdea  
We've created OsJobber, because there is no good open source job board available.

Introduction

Job boards in their most simple version will of course not appeal to all users/site owners. What we're aiming to create is a job board which is completely modular. If you want to create the next craigslist.com then you'd need OsJobber Lite. If you want to create the next careerbuilder.com then you'd need to start adding a lot of modules/plugins to expand your code to meet the business model. If you have a site like no other then you should just be able to plug your module in, and use OsJobber as a base system, which provides "Advertisers" and "Advertising Respondents" the ability to post and reply to "Advertisements".

Details

Core Job Board Functionality, (as OsJobber-Lite will perform)

  1. Employers (Advertisers) can post jobs (Advertisements).
    • A job post consists of a title, and job description, and an email to send applications to. NOTHING ELSE
    • They do not have to sign up to post jobs!
2. Anyone can search for those jobs using a simple keyword search form (NOTHING ELSE), which searches the job title and job description.
  • This requires a full text index on the title and job description rows in the database.
3. JobSeekers (Responders) can then apply to the job.
  • They do not have to sign up!
  • An application consists of your email address and resume (NOTHING ELSE).
  • The resume can be pasted into a textarea or can be attached.
  • The application is sent FROM: the job seeker and TO: the employer.
  • The application and the resume is saved in the database.
4. Admin can add / edit / delete — employers, jobseekers, and jobs. 5. A designer can theme the website with a site wide template.
