Developing User Stories and Use Cases for Job Advertisement System

The task is to develop user stories and use cases for a Job Advertisement System, aimed at facilitating efficient recruitment processes. The focus lies in capturing client stories and translating them into technical specifications that guide system design and functionality. The assignment requires understanding the roles of different users (employers, employees, recruiters), their interactions with the system, and defining detailed requirements through user stories and use cases. This process includes outlining scenarios like job advertisement creation, application submissions, and communication between employers and potential candidates. Additionally, documenting these elements into a Software Requirements Specification (SRS) ensures that all stakeholder needs are addressed systematically. The deliverables consist of well-structured user stories reflecting the client's vision, comprehensive use cases illustrating system interactions, and an SRS document summarizing all requirements and expectations for the development team.
