Welcome to Git Hired, your new best friend in the job application jungle. Born in the crucible of the Elevate Hackathon, Git Hired is here to turn your job search from a chaotic mess into a well-oiled machine. (We can't guarantee you'll get hired, but at least you'll know where you applied!)
The project is deployed and can be accessed at: https://jobtracker-team4-b6fdc54fc148.herokuapp.com/

Meet the caffeinated coders behind Git Hired:
This project is licensed under the MIT License - see the LICENSE.md file for details. (It's MIT because we're too busy job hunting to write our own license.)
Remember, in the world of job hunting, it's not about the destination, it's about the journey. And with Git Hired, at least that journey will be well-documented! Happy job hunting! 🎉
This ERD outlines the database schema for the Git Hired application. It includes three main models: Job, Goal, and Note, each associated with the User model.
Job: Represents job applications, including details such as the category, company, title, location, application status, and the date applied. Goal: Tracks user-defined career goals. Note: Allows users to add notes related to specific job applications, with timestamps for creation and updates.
The relationships between the models are defined as follows:
A User can have multiple Jobs and Goals. Each Job can have multiple associated Notes.
- We used Balsamiq to design the wireframes for us website.
The Git Hired website was assessed with Google Lighthouse via Google Chrome Developer Tools. Performance scores were evaluated for both desktop and mobile devices.
- The average score for the pages was 90/100 and the majority of the pages getting an excellent performance of over 90/100

-
HTML: Used for structuring the content on the web pages. It forms the backbone of the project, ensuring that all elements are correctly placed and accessible.
-
CSS: Used for styling the HTML elements, providing the visual appearance and layout of the web pages. CSS ensures the platform is visually appealing and user-friendly.
-
JavaScript: Adds interactivity and dynamic behavior to the web pages. It enhances the user experience by allowing for real-time updates, form validations, and interactive elements.
-
Python: a primary programming language for the backend of the project. It is used in conjunction with the Django framework to handle server-side logic, data processing, and integration with the database.
- Django: A high-level Python web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. It provides robust features for building the backend, including user authentication, URL routing, and database management, ensuring a scalable and secure web application.
- Bootstrap: As a popular CSS framework that helps in designing responsive and mobile-first web pages, we used it to ensure the directory is accessible and visually consistent across different devices and screen sizes.
ll pages were validated, and the code was pasted in. A filter was applied to remove issues related to the Django templating system.
