🔍 Project Overview

This microservices-based job application platform enables companies to post job openings, job seekers to submit applications, and users to share reviews about companies. The system is designed with scalability, fault tolerance, and performance in mind, leveraging modern cloud-native technologies.


🌟 Key Features

  • Job Management: Create, update, search, and delete job postings
  • Application Tracking: Submit applications and track their status
  • Company Reviews: Post and read company reviews and ratings
  • User Authentication: Secure registration and login process
  • Service Discovery: Automatic registration and discovery of services
  • API Gateway: Unified entry point for all client requests
  • Circuit Breaking: Preventing cascading failures across services
  • Load Balancing: Distribute traffic among service instances
  • Containerization: Docker-based deployment for consistency

🏗 Architecture

The application follows a microservices architecture with:

  • API Gateway: Entry point that routes requests to appropriate services
  • Config Server: Centralized configuration management
  • Service Registry: Service discovery using Eureka
  • Circuit Breaker: Resilience4j implementation for fault tolerance
  • Event-driven communication: Asynchronous messaging with Kafka

Detailed architecture diagram coming soon!
