⚙️ Technical Stack

• Backend: PHP 8+ (often Laravel-style MVC or clean custom MVC)
• Frontend: HTML5, Bootstrap, jQuery for responsive careers page & admin UI
• Database: MySQL / MariaDB tables for jobs, applicants, files, users
• Server: Apache/Nginx, HTTPS, common PHP extensions (mbstring, fileinfo, openssl, pdo_mysql)

Expert note: if you expect many applications, store CVs in a separate disk/folder and enable file size limits + reCAPTCHA to avoid spam.
