Abstract/Artist Statement
There is an abundance of job search engines on the Internet today, none of which satisfy the most basic and important concept of their design; simplicity. Most of these engines such as Indeed and Monster are cluttered and overrun with ads and unnecessary information that distracts the user from what should be the true purpose of the website, which is to help employers find potential employees and to help everyone else find their dream job. Lutrus attempts to solve this issue. Our mission is to create a simple, easy to use, and aesthetically pleasing website that can be used as the hub of all job searches, both for a job seeker and a hiring manager. It is neither a social network nor a simple job search engine. Instead, Lutrus seeks to be a platform for employers and candidates to find the perfect match for their professional needs. Our website will allow for customizable profiles, a search engine, and companies with multiple employers, all built from the ground up using the popular web framework Node.js with MySQL as the back-end database.
