Hi All,

Ok, so this is the latest brief i got from a client. What i want to know is what
features to integrate to make the jobs portal stand out from the rest. Just your
ideas and contributions will be ok and appreciated.

And samples of good Job Portals in Nigeria would be cool. Thanks for your HELP!

1- Keep it simple
2- Make sure the jobs are real
3- Make sure there is a constant stream of jobs
4-Make it easy to search and find relevant jobs
5- Make sure the site loads fast and is mobile friendly/compatible

Thanks @oyadashme,

First, forget that "Good Job portals in Nigeria". I haven't seen one. Then The issue with job portal is this. IF the client is willing to pay well, Think of spending much time on the "User Architecture". A responsive web design is what you are planning to do (What you should anyway). SO, try and spend time looking at the UA (as regards internet dummies). Your audience is not limited to people who know how to use internet, it goes farther than that. . . to people who just came online for the job search. SOyou want to keep the user expereince simple and straightto the point. Second is a Fullproof Serverside coding. . . then if you're a core developer, look for someone who's large on fron-end design and outsource it. Cos besides functionality, the Beauty is what would make it stand out of the ngierian job portals pack. Believe me there are lots of them but bad presentation is what they've all got.

and last but very important, Go large on you SEO, cos there are so many JOb portals in Nigeria. and you want to fight the competition, "Be google friendly"

For Inspiration on Job portal design, look for somethign outside nigeria, try search google for websites outside Nigeria!
