Maxtekno is an IT service company that has a headquarter in Singapore. They are one of the companies that opens job vacancies even during the pandemic. In 2020 itself, there are 7.416 candidates that applied to Maxtekno, but only 153 candidates were recruited. With the huge number of candidates, the HR team needs a system that simplify their work. Unfortunately, the current system and process is still too complicated and requires too much manual processes.

To do so, this study also aims to gather requirement for the improved recruitment application, validate the fulfillment of requirement based on the design and the prototype created, and to gather feedback from the users for the next iteration.

Feasibility and difficulty assessment also done in the second interview phase by interviewing the developer team. Third interview phase is conducted during sprint review.
