I want a web-based Placement Portal that streamlines the entire campus recruitment workflow for my institute. The first milestone focuses on the Admin module, where the institute’s staff will be able to: • approve or reject company registration requests in real time, • track individual and aggregate student applications across all drives, and • generate placement reports that can be exported or viewed online. While the core of this phase centres on the Admin role, the overall architecture must leave room for company and student dashboards so we can layer in job-posting, profile viewing, application tracking, and interview scheduling later without re-engineering the backend. Key expectations • Clean, intuitive UI built with any modern frontend framework (React, Vue, or Angular are all acceptable). • Secure role-based access on the backend (Node/Express, Django, Laravel—open to the stack you are most comfortable with, provided it is well-documented). • A relational database schema that prevents duplicate registrations and supports detailed reporting. • RESTful or GraphQL APIs so future mobile or micro-services can tap into the same data. • Deployment instructions (Docker or a simple cloud setup) so I can run the app on our institute server. Acceptance criteria 1. An Admin can log in, see pending company registrations, and approve or reject them. 2. Student applications appear on a dashboard with filters for drive, branch, and status. 3. Clicking “Generate Report” produces downloadable CSV or PDF placement statistics. 4. All actions are captured in audit logs. Please base your proposal around this scope, including an estimated timeline for delivering the above features and any clarification you might need on UI/UX or tech stack preferences.
