Product Overview

A Complete Recruitment Ecosystem, Production-Ready

PlacoRecruiter is a full-featured jobs board and recruitment platform that bridges employers, job seekers, and recruitment agencies in a single, cohesive system. Designed on a strict 7-layer clean architecture and powered by Claude AI throughout, it delivers the infrastructure of a mature recruitment product from the moment you deploy it.

The platform covers the entire hiring lifecycle — from job posting and candidate discovery through ATS-managed pipeline stages, interview scheduling, offer management, and onboarding initiation. Each role — employer, candidate, recruiter, and admin — gets a tailored experience with appropriate access controls, dashboards, and workflow tools.

Built in six technology stacks with identical feature parity, PlacoRecruiter allows your team to work in their preferred ecosystem while the 7-layer architecture ensures the codebase remains clean, testable, and extensible as your platform scales.

Proactive candidate search across the talent pool with boolean search, skill matching, experience filtering, and saved candidate lists — giving recruiters tools to source passively, not just wait for applications.

PlacoRecruiter ships with a complete, production-grade ATS — not a third-party bolt-on. Every hiring stage, every candidate interaction, and every team communication is centralized and fully trackable.

Configurable Pipeline Stages

Define your own hiring stages per job type — screening call, technical test, panel interview, reference check, offer. No fixed pipeline.

Collaborative Hiring

Multiple hiring team members review and score candidates independently. Private notes, scorecards, and final decision workflows with approvals.

Offer Management

Generate offer letters from templates, send digitally, track acceptance status, and initiate onboarding workflows — all within the platform.

Automated Candidate Communications

System Architecture

7-Layer Clean Architecture

PlacoRecruiter follows the same rigorous 7-layer pattern across all stacks — clean separation of concerns from SharedKernel primitives through to the Web UI layer.

01

SharedKernel

Base entities, value objects, domain exceptions, guard clauses, result pattern, and cross-cutting primitives.

02

Domain Layer

Job aggregates, Candidate entities, Application domain model, domain events (JobPosted, Applied, Hired, Rejected) and business rules.

03

Infrastructure

EF Core / Dapper repos, email providers, resume storage (S3/Azure), calendar integration clients, and background job implementations.

04

Application Layer

CQRS commands/queries, MediatR pipeline behaviors, FluentValidation validators, AutoMapper profiles, and use case orchestration.

05

Search Layer

Elasticsearch integration, skill-based candidate indexing, geo-search for job locations, faceted filtering, and search ranking tuning.

06

API Layer

Versioned REST API, JWT middleware, RBAC policies, OpenAPI docs, webhook support for HRIS integration, and rate limiting.

07

Web / UI Layer

Next.js 15 / Angular 21 with SSR for SEO-critical job pages, employer dashboard shell, candidate portal, and theme engine.
