Inspiration

Knowing the disparity between different aspects such as pay, opportunities, etc between men and women in the workforce, we aspired to mitigate this gap in at least one way. Our team decided to inspire confidence in young women to apply for roles they’re not fully qualified for.

What it does

Our website strives to provide a platform for young women to find encouragement all in one place. Instead of going to multiple different apps or websites, More Than Ready is a place where you can find it all: a resume reviewer, confidence survey, confidence coach, and journaling site.

How we built it

This project is built with react, node.js, and express.js framework.

Challenges we ran into

  • Integrating the resume upload feature
  • Parsing through the resume and extracting the information

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Delivering a completed demo
  • Working with teammates with different strengths and weaknesses
  • Being agile with different mindsets, personalities, and views

What we learned

  • How to upload and read data from files
  • Integrating multiple features in a full-stack application

What's next for More Than Ready

Our future plans include:

  • Gamify applications with badges using MongoDB to boost engagement
  • Add visuals to track job progress and confidence growth
  • Provide recommended skill-building resources based on resume gaps
