Jobs in Kharkov is the largest regional website in Ukraine for job search and recruitment. Screen Interactive developed the site and continues to improve it.

Now, our team has developed the mobile application for the Jobs in Kharkov website to make it more comfortable for smartphone users to search for information about vacancies and applicants.

Jobs in Kharkov is the first official mobile application in Ukraine created for the job search and recruitment website.

The app is available for Android and iOS devices.

The technologies we used for development are:

  • User interface for mobile app: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript: jQuery and jQuery Mobile

  • Server-side: PHP and MySQL

  • Data exchange between the app and the server-side: JSON API

Similar to the main website, the app has two user roles, Employer and Applicant. Functionality of the application differs for employers and applicants.

New users can create a profile on the Jobs in Kharkov website, using the mobile app.

Unregistered users have limited access to the app functionality. They can only browse vacancies and view information about the leading employers.

Applicant’s interface

The following functionality becomes available for users after authorization:

Vacancy search. Applicants can browse through job ads in categories or use a search tool. Users can search vacancies by category, subcategory, region, and keywords.

Subscription. Users can save the search criteria they use and subscribe for new vacancies. Every day they’ll receive an email about new jobs that fit their search criteria. Users can create new subscriptions as well as manage the existing ones.

Favorites. If users like particular job openings, they can save them to Favorites. That means there’s no need to look for these vacancies in the main list again.

Messages. We added an internal messaging system to the app to allow users to communicate with each other. The applicant sends the CV to an employer as a message. The employer can respond to the message and continue to communicate with this applicant. The application stores the history of all written communication in the Messages section in the app and on the website.

Push notifications. Each time a user gets a new message sent from the app or from the Jobs in Kharkov website, the app informs him by sending a push notification to his phone.

Registered users, who have subscribed for vacancies, regularly receive push notifications about new job ads on the website.

Employer’s interface

All the app’s features for employers are available only after authorization. Mostly, the features they get are similar to the functionality the applicants have. However, functionality for employers concentrates on the candidates’ search.

The employers can:

  • Search for applicants’ CVs, view the contacts and detailed information about the applicants

  • Add interesting CVs to Favorites

  • Subscribe for new applicants’ CVs, manage subscriptions, and receive notifications about new CVs

  • Invite appropriate applicants to apply for a particular job

  • Create new jobs, edit and delete existing ones in the “My jobs” section of employer's profile

  • Communicate with candidates via an internal messaging system

  • Browse through the list of leading recruiting agencies (instead of leading employers)

  • Use message templates to notify certain applicants about a job opening. When employers inform a particular applicant of a job opening, they can use preexisting templates to create an accompanying message and send it.

We also created a convenient interface for tablets to make the Jobs in Kharkov app available to a wider audience.
