Current Status

In progress — core UX and backend scaffolding are in place, with auth/profile/jobs working. Applications and job search filters are next.

What’s Left (Near-Term)

• Pagination + filtering for job listings
• Applications flow (apply, recruiter list, status updates)
• Public job listing (no auth) for landing/search
• Cleaner recruiter dashboard (job metrics + applicants)

Future Polishing Ideas

• Job alerts + saved searches
• CI + test coverage
