October 2025: Delivered a cohesive backend for recruitment workflows with Job Posts and Job Applications, fortified security, and improved data integrity. Implemented core Job Posts endpoints (CRUD, filtering) with DTO/model/repository layers and field renaming for consistency; added partial updates via UpdateJobPostRequest. Expanded Job Applications with full lifecycle management (create/retrieve/update/approve-reject/delete), role-based access control, and CV/cover letter integration, including timestamped CV URL handling. Fixed the Job Applications filtering bug by enforcing at least one filter input. Reworked security/identity to a single role per user and tightened error handling. These changes accelerate feature delivery, improve data quality, and strengthen security posture across the platform.
