Abstract

IT placement has been an issue for Penultimate Undergraduate students, they find it challenging getting a placement for their Industrial Training as they need to apply physically to some organizations. That is why this project is developing a mobile application for Undergraduate students using react native as the framework and JavaScript as the programming language. This project will help students ease the stress of physical application to organizations of their choice for Internship. Undergraduate Students can apply from the comfort of their homes for Placement. The mobile application has three users (Student, Organization and Institution supervisor). Each user must have an account, students can upload daily activities and supervisors can comment on their weekly report for students while Institution supervisor can only access and monitor the reports. The study recommends to all universities in Nigeria and companies willing to take interns, they should implement the usage of this mobile application as a way of easing the stress students go through in securing IT placement.
