we are currently working on such a block for a customer... I think we'll realease a block on the market place very soon for a acceptable price.

Hi is there any more developments on this please or anything similar being worked on by anyone?

Me too interested in this block.

I made a package of this. I haven't released it to the market place, I will share my code with you guys.. it needs improvement though. I have a nice voting system for the applicants, plus a hashed url for the references to send their reference letters.

Great! Waiting to see it!

I need to finish up a couple of things and its done. Right now, I have the system to collect applicant's records and reference letters and put them together. I don't have it to collect and separate jobs. Everybody is applying for one job. I am going to release a first version and then I will request a list of features--you can send me the list of features on my email me@vnikos.com-- to implement and have them ready for next version through update.
Feel free to contact me.

Very interested in this Block. Does it allow creation of a database of different jobs? I see that your last post says everyone applies for one job at present.

Have you made any progress on this since the last post?

We'd definitely be interested in this as well!

i have a package like this on its way. Which will allow you to add vacancies and review applications for each vacancy etc

hi lookstechnical - have you an estimate of when you'll complete this?? Ive got a job to pitch for and would love to do it in concrete 5 and not joomla?

Any chance you could provide a tentative feature list so we know what your planning. Cheers

I would estimate i will be submitting the add-on within the next 2-3 weeks, depending on other work commitments.

initial Features Summary:

Ability for Recruiters to add vacancies to database and view applications.

Ability for job seekers to view, search and apply for vacancies.

Search by - keyword - location / distance - vacancy type - vacancy category - salary range etc.


Possible future additions - tailored job alerts for job seekers. Any Ideas/ requests?

Hi,

Is this due to be released soon? very interested in this block!

Unfortunately things got really busy here and i never got round to finishing this. i do however have some time over the next week, i believe i would be able to complete this and submit it by the end of next week .

Sounds good :)

Would be very interested in this as well.

hi any news on this block I have a job that needs it?

I'm about to release a beta for a jobs board.

But I'm creating it based on the need for SOMETHING, rather than to a specific spec... so I feel it's going to be a bit too generic.

Can you either post (or PM me) with a basic list of your requirements?

James

Attached is v .8.5 of my jobs package.

I'm planning on smoothing this out a bit and adding some new features, maybe a "related jobs" functionality (i think this requires full-text search, which i'm not very familiar with), but nothing very significant.

I'm also going to try to figure out what direction to go in from here. There seems to be 3 branches for "job posting":

1. Standard job posting block for a company that has 1 to x locations and wants to post jobs for those locations. The job posting and application reviewing is done by one or two people (ie, HR). The person who's looking for a job is interested in working for company x and probably has an idea that a given location is near or far.

2. Something akin to monster.com, where the job posting and reviewing is decentralized. There aren't really any "predefined" locations, as each company has 1 - x locations. People looking for jobs care less about a specific company and more about job type and location.

3. Something in between, a recruiter site, where there are still multiple companies, each with their own locations, but the job posting and application review is done by "centralized" people.

The package was created with #1 in mind, but I'm going to try to think of ways to let it work with scenarios 2 and 3.

James

Cool - I'll install today and start providing feedback.

Please send a link when its done - thanks Moody

This is AWESOME! I have a TREMENDOUS need for this, for multiple clients, but one in particular that is immediate... Are you anywhere closer to a finished product? (I'm ready to shell out the bucks for it!)

I've yet to install this beta, btw, but when I do, I'm happy to collaborate if you need anything. :-)

Darren

Subscribed. Can't wait to see what happens :-)

Just an FYI... on 5.4.1.1, I get this error on install:
Fatal error: Call to a member function getCollectionTypeID() on a non-object in /usr/local/share/concrete5/concrete5.4.1.1/concrete/models/page.php on line 1968

Dunno if that is something you may or may not want to concern yourself with, or if you have any feedback regarding it (like an obvious -- or not so obvious -- way to fix it!)

Darren

After that error, which is mostly irrelevant since it DOES install, I do not have any options to edit/add/delete job postings (which I assume would be in the backend somewhere) -- the block to add the job "LISTING" is there, and used it, but, of course, it is blank!

Sorry, if I'm bugging you!!

Hey there

Wondering if the block that you have developed would work with the latest version of Concrete5?

If there's a requirement for such a package, I can have a go at it. But I'd need full functional specification.

So... did this addon ever happen? Or is someone still working on this? Because it would be great to have this!

I'd sure love to know, myself!!

Yea, im also interested in this. I started building my own system using user attributes but its less than ideal so havepretty much gave up.

Will keep a keen eye on this post!

I have another client who would benefit from this so any update guys. Something of this nature released on the marketplace would be awesome.
