Building a React Native Job Board and Recruitment App

Job board apps connect job seekers with employers. Key features include smart search, application management, and communication tools.

Job Data Model

interface JobListing {
  id: string
  companyId: string
  title: string
  description: string
  requirements: string[]
  salary: { min: number; max: number; currency: string }
  location: string
  type: 'full-time' | 'part-time' | 'contract' | 'remote'
  postedAt: Date
}

interface Application {
  jobId: string
  candidateId: string
  status: 'submitted' | 'reviewed' | 'interview' | 'offered' | 'rejected'
  appliedAt: Date
}

Smart Job Matching

function calculateJobMatch(candidate: Candidate, job: JobListing): number {
  const skillOverlap = candidate.skills.filter(s => job.requirements.includes(s)).length
  const skillScore = skillOverlap / job.requirements.length
  const locationMatch = job.type === 'remote' || job.location === candidate.location ? 1 : 0.5
  return skillScore * 0.7 + locationMatch * 0.3
}

Application Tracking

Track application status through the pipeline with notifications at each stage.
