1) Students maintain a list of experiences and skills that would potentially be included in a resume.

Till date, we have not found an easy to use professional diary, where a user can log, in an easy to use manner, his or her professional activities.  Hence, we plan to allow users to input and update their professional journal.  This is something for them to view and keep track of what all they have done.  There have been many times where we have all wanted to remember what we did at some point, either for curiosity, but often to put it on a resume or talk about it in an application.  This professional journal would allow the user to track him or herself through out time, and refer back to this log wheneverAs students develop professionally, they maintain a log of their experience and activities to present to employers.  This professional journal allows an undergraduate to generate different resumes as needed.  The log will be online, so a user can access it from anywhere the user has Internet access.  The nice thing is that the user can input and update entries whenever the user feels like it.  The application asks the user to take his or her knowledge and store it for him or her to see.  The user can update this journal as frequently as the user would like, whether it be once a week, once a month, or once a year.  The UI will be designed so that the user can understand how to use the web application simply by interacting with it.  We will have a manual and FAQs as well.  With regards to safety, a user may input the wrong information.  All entered information will be editable and removable, so that should not be a major concern.  A user could however delete something that the user did not mean to delete.  This can cause problems.  Anytime a user is deleting a full item with other sub-items such as “Summer Internship at Google” and all the bullet points it contains, there will be a confirmation screen asking “Are you sure you want to delete this?” If they still accidentally delete this bullet point they may have to reenter the information.
