Mobile Test Project - Jobs App

Your task is to implement a simple Job Board mobile application using Ionic Framework. Detailed specifications for the test project are provided below. We estimate that you will not need more than a single weekend at relaxed coding speed to implement it.

Project Description

The Job Board mobile application will be used by your Users (Job Seekers) to perform the following tasks:

• List Job Posts
• Filter Job Posts
• View a job post indivisually

Technical details

Your mobile application should be built on Ionic Framework, and consume Akhtaboot's public jobs API.

Akhtaboot public jobs API

The public API supporst these actions:

• Index:

  url: https://akhtaboot.com/api/v1/jobs GET

  params: per_page, page, country, city, job_type, career_level, job_communities, _id

  send ?local=true to retrieve your country jobs by your IP address

  You can get Jobs By ids by requesting the methods as the following

  https://akhtaboot.com/api/v1/jobs?_id[]=job-44841&_id[]=job-44843

• Show:

  Returns a single job's data

  url: https://akhtaboot.com/api/v1/jobs/:job_id

• Init:

  Returns a list of countries, cities, and communities

  url: https://akhtaboot.com/api/v1/init

• Create User:

  method: post

  url: https://akhtaboot.com/api/v1/profiles/

  params: email, password, password_confirmation, cv, doc

Implementation

• Create an index page to list jobs.
• Add City & Country filter.
• Only list 10 jobs on the page, allow the user to view more.
• Add a show page for a single job listing it's details.
• Show job location on the map in the show page

Bonus task (NOT mandatory)

• Implement more filters using the API.
• Allow users to signup and upload CVs through your application.

Review process

There are a few technical restrictions so we can see how you fare with the technologies and processes we use on a daily basis, but in general, the actual implementation is quite open-ended. The reason is we want to see how you think in terms of architecture, development processes and how you generally deal with the challenges you might face while implementing this app.

The following should help you determine where to put your focus, since these are the things we will be looking for while reviewing your project.

Testability

Is your code tested? How do you approach testing? Do you use TDD or are tests an afterthought for you.

Validations and error handling

How do you handle required fields, and errors that might appear due to invalid data, How do you handle responses and Exceptions

Version Control

Please commit often and tell a story of your process with your commit history.
