In-House Hiring Platform Build

I need an internal company hiring tool that lets our employees browse, search and apply for open roles without ever leaving our corporate environment. The heart of the platform is a fast, intuitive job-listing and search experience that feels as slick as any external job board yet remains fully private to the organization.

Please make sure these extra capabilities are built in:

• Automatic job-post matching that recommends positions to employees based on their profile, recent searches and saved preferences
• Customizable job alerts so users can decide how often they receive email or in-app notifications about new opportunities that fit their criteria
• An employee referral system that tracks who referred whom, ties referrals to specific vacancies and credits the referrer once a candidate is hired

Core flow
– Hiring managers publish vacancies through a secure dashboard.
– Employees, once logged in through our existing Single Sign-On, can filter roles by department, location or keyword, then apply in a couple of clicks.
– The matching engine runs in the background, nudging potential candidates with personalised alerts.
– Referrals are captured during application and surfaced to recruiters for easy tracking.

Deliverables
1. Responsive web application (desktop & mobile) coded with best-practice security and clean, well-documented code.
2. Admin interface for recruiters/hiring managers with role-based permissions.
3. Fully functioning matching, alert and referral modules.
4. Deployment scripts and a brief hand-over session so our IT team can maintain the system.

If you have experience building similar SaaS-style HR tools—especially with technologies like React, Vue, Django, Node.js or Laravel—let me know how you would tackle the search speed, matching logic and notification scheduling. I’m aiming for a straightforward MVP first, followed by iterative improvements once we have real usage data.
