PeopleRefer
HR recruitment portal with open jobs, applications, candidate accounts, and mock interview preparation.
01 — Scope
What we made
A recruitment portal for open roles. Candidates can browse jobs, apply, and keep an account with their applications. A separate admin area runs jobs, applications, messages, and mock interviews. Public mock-interview pages cover general preparation and preparation for a named company.
- Public job list, job page, and application form
- Candidate register, login, email check, and an applications dashboard
- Admin for jobs, applications, messages, and mock interviews
- Self-preparation and company-preparation interview paths
02 — Approach
How we made it
Publish the role, then take the application
Jobs are listed on the home page and on the jobs index. Each role has its own page and an apply step.
Give the candidate an account
Registration, email verification, password reset, and a dashboard keep applications attached to the person instead of a one-off form.
Add interview preparation beside the jobs
Mock interview splits into self preparation, with goals and a CV, and company preparation, with the company, role, round, and interview date.

05 — Result
What changed
Roles and applications live in one portal
A candidate can find a job, apply, and come back to the same application.
Hiring has an admin, not a shared inbox
Jobs, applications, and messages are handled inside the admin area.
Interview prep sits next to the job
Someone can prepare in general or for a specific company without leaving the portal.
