A full-stack Job Portal built with React, Node.js, and MongoDB, designed to streamline job applications and company recruitment workflows.

This project showcases practical implementation of authentication, role-based access, API integration, and modern UI — built as part of my full-stack development practice.

This web app allows:

• Job Seekers to register, browse jobs, and apply directly.
• Recruiters to post openings, view applicants, and manage hiring statuses.

It’s a realistic simulation of a modern job platform, built with scalable architecture and clean design principles.

• Secure registration & login (Clerk authentication)
• Explore jobs with search and filters
• Apply to jobs directly from dashboard
• Track application status (Pending / Accepted / Rejected)

• Create and manage job postings
• Review applications per job
• Accept or reject applicants instantly
• Update company details and logos

• Image & resume upload via Cloudinary
• Token-based route protection
• Responsive design using Tailwind CSS
• Toast notifications for actions and errors

Frontend: React.js, Tailwind CSS, Axios
Backend: Node.js, Express.js
