Are you considering an on-campus job but unsure what to expect? Or have you worked or are currently working in one and want to share your experience to help your peers in their job search?
Our newly enhanced Campus Job Review System is a one-stop destination for students seeking answers about on-campus jobs. This comprehensive platform empowers students by allowing them to upload and explore reviews of various job opportunities. Built with Django and MongoDB, the system benefits from Django's rapid development capabilities and MongoDB's flexibility in managing diverse review data.
After visiting our website, students will leave with a fresh perspective, reassured that their questions have been addressed. By leveraging insights from peers who have firsthand experience, they can make informed decisions about their on-campus employment options.
Explore our platform and take the first step towards finding the right on-campus job for you!

We have made lots of changes to ensure that our app is feasible, maintainable, extendable, and can be used by a broad audience. Throughout this process, we have extended various features and fixed bugs. Our enhancements and bug fixes include:
-
Database Migration: We have migrated the current minimal SQL to MongoDB. This ensures enhanced performance, particularly with faster queries for dynamic filtering, while also improving scalability.
-
Frontend Upgrade: We migrated from foundational HTML/CSS to React for a more dynamic and responsive user experience, providing a seamless, real-time interface that better meets user needs.
-
Security Enhancements: We have implemented secure login and sign-up processes by improving authentication mechanisms through JWT tokenization, which allows for secure access to job reviews and user data.
-
Browser Extension: We have integrated a browser API with the cloud MongoDB database to allow for job review pop-ups and form autofill when viewing or applying for jobs, minimizing repetitive data entry and enhancing job search ease.
-
Enhanced User Interaction: We added dynamic filters for pay rate, ratings, job locations, and more, allowing users to sort various fields for a more focused and personalized approach to their job searches.
-
Backend upgrade: Upgraded to a django rest framework from a basic flask application. This allows portability of the application.
-
Form Validation: Enhance frontend form validaition to have stronger checks and better user experience.
-
Browser Extension Enhancement: Extend the browser extension to be integrated with the backend and show the complete review. Additionally, add an auto-fill feature based on the review information that would simplify data entry, enhancing user-friendliness and efficiency.
-
Community Features: Introduce a forum or discussion board where users can share experiences, ask questions, and provide advice on job applications and interviews. This could foster a community around job hunting and reviews.
-
Mobile Application Development: Develop a mobile version of the CampusJobReview platform to allow users to access job listings, submit reviews, and receive notifications on the go, enhancing accessibility and user engagement.
