Jobs Portal 3 - employers admin panel pages description

Home -> Welcome 

Welcome page of the employers administration area. On this page the employer could find shortcuts to the main pages of his administration area. 

The functionality of the employers area is divided in 5 main categories: 

- Home (basic functionality for changing his password, manage the received messages from the other users and shortcuts to the main pages of the application) 

- Profile (manage his profile and the list of the contact persons if any) 

- Job Ads (buy new job ads packages, post new job ads and modify the existing ones) 

- Applications (manage the jobseekers applications for selected job ads, review the lists of the approved and the rejected jobseekers) 

- Jobseekers (provides basic functionality for searching in the jobseekers database, display their resumes) 

Home -> Change Password 

From this page the Employer could modify the password he uses to access his personal administration space. 
After the password is modified, the employer will have to login again with his new username and password. 

Home -> Messages 

Jobs Portal provides functionality for the users to exchange messages (jobseekers -> employers and employers -> jobseekers). On this page the employer could review the received messages. In order to reply a message he needs to click on the "Reply" Icon. Once this icon clicked a new form will show up providing him the possibility to enter the subject and the text message. 

Profile -> View 

Preview of the employer's profile. The main profile of the employer includes information for his company name and description, address phone, fax and website. 

Profile -> Edit 

In order to modify his current profile, the employer should go to this page. It includes the same information as the Profile->View page but on this page the fields are editable. 

Profile -> Contact Persons 

The contact persons functionality provides the ability for the employer to manage a group of persons in his company responsible for handling the job applications. The employer could add multiple contact persons (with different names, emails and phone numbers) and then assign a different contact person for each job ad he posts on the website. The employer could choose then if the jobseekers should apply only through the website or contact directly the contact person assigned for this job (and send the job applications and any included files to it directly to the email of the contact person). 
The list of the contact persons could be managed from the Profile -> Contact Persons page. 

Profile -> Logo 

A company logo added to a job ad detailed view page could help the jobseekers easily identify the company and the employers to better represent their corporate image. That's why Jobs Portal adds the possibility for the employers to upload their logo (gif, jpg or png files are accepted). The employer could set his logo from the Profile -> Logo page. 

Job Ads -> Packages 

In order to be able to post new job ads, the employer should have at least one package with at least one job ad remaining in it. From the Jobs Ads -> Packages the employer could choose the package(s) suiting the best his needs in terms of ads included, the validity of the job ads (defined in days) and its price. 

After a package is selected and the employer has clicked on the Buy button, the available payment options for this job package will show up. The selected job package will immediately appear in the list of the employer's packages but his status will be "Pending Validation" until a payment is done and it's approved by the administrator. Once the package is paid, his status will change in "Validated" and the employer will be able to use it in order to post new job ads. 

Job Ads -> New Job Ad 

The posting of a new job ad s divided in two main steps: 

- the first one is to choose the available job package that the employer would like to use in order to post his ad (after the ad is successfully posted the total remaining ads in the selected package will be decreased by 1) 

- the second step is to enter the job ad details (category, job title, description etc.) 

The Job Ads -> New Job Ad page should be used by the employers for posting new ads. 

Job Ads -> My Job Ads 

On the My Job Ads page, the employer could review the list of his current ads, modify them or view the list of the jobseekers applied for them. 

Job Ads -> Expired Ads 

After a validity of a job ad expires (the validity depends on the job ads package used and the expire time set for it in days), the job ad will be no more visible on the website and it will appear on the Expired Ads page. 

That means that the job ad will be not automatically deleted whenever it expires but simply deactivated with the possibility for the employer to reactivate it at any time from the "Expired Ads" page and make it visible on the website again. When renewing an ad, the employer is charged in the same way as posting a new ad - the total number of ads in the selected package is decreased by 1. If no valid job ads package is available, the employer should purchase one. 

Applications -> Jobseekers Applied 

This page provides functionality for the employer to approve the job applications for a selected job ad. In order to view the applications, the employer will have to select fist the job ad from the drop down menu on this page. Then on the page listing the job applications for the selected ad, on every line/job application there are links "Approve" and "Reject" which shoud be used to approve/reject the job ads. 

Applications -> Approved 

On this page, the employer can see the list with the approved jobseekers. 

Applications -> Rejected 

List of the rejected jobseekers.
