W6 Implementation Summary: Upload Resume

Overview

W6 implements the HR-only resume upload flow as the entry point to the hiring system. This vertical slice includes UI, API, database models, validation, RBAC, and audit logging.

Files Created/Modified

1. Database & Schema

File: prisma/schema.prisma

Changes:

• Added enums: CandidateStatus, DocumentCategory, DocumentStatus
• Added RESUME_UPLOADED to AuditEventType
• Added Candidate model with fields:
  • candidateCode (unique, auto-generated)
  • fullName (optional, nullable)
  • applyingFor (required)
  • status (default: NEW)
  • createdByUserId (foreign key to User)
• Added CandidateDocument model with fields:
  • candidateId (foreign key)
  • category (DocumentCategory enum)
  • filename, mimeType, sizeBytes, storageKey
  • version, status, uploadedByUserId
• Updated User model with relationships:
  • createdCandidates: Candidate[]
  • uploadedDocuments: CandidateDocument[]

Migration: add_candidates_and_documents

---

2. Validation Schemas

File: src/lib/validation/schemas.ts

Additions:

• presignUploadSchema – Validates filename, mimeType, sizeBytes
• createCandidateSchema – Validates applyingFor, fullName, notes, resume metadata
• Type exports: PresignUploadInput, CreateCandidateInput

---

3. Storage Utilities

File: src/lib/storage/s3.ts (NEW)

Functions:

• generatePresignedUrl(storageKey, mimeType) – Returns S3 PUT presigned URL
• generateStorageKey(candidateCode, filename) – Creates storage path

Config:

• Uses AWS SDK v3 (S3Client, PutObjectCommand, getSignedUrl)
• Supports S3-compatible endpoints (MinIO, LocalStack)
• URL expires in 1 hour

---

4. Candidate Code Generator

File: src/lib/candidates/code.ts (NEW)

Function:

• generateCandidateCode() – Returns CAND-YYYY-##### format

---

5. API Endpoints

Endpoint 1: POST /api/uploads/presign

File: src/app/api/uploads/presign/route.ts (NEW)

Logic:

• Authenticates user (JWT via cookie)
• Requires HR or ADMIN role
• Validates file metadata (type, size)
• Generates storage key (temp-based)
• Returns presigned S3 URL + storage key
• Returns 401/403 on auth failure, 400 on validation error

Endpoint 2: POST /api/candidates

File: src/app/api/candidates/route.ts (NEW)

Logic:

• Authenticates user (JWT via cookie)
• Requires HR or ADMIN role
• Validates candidate data (applyingFor required, fullName optional)
• Generates unique candidateCode
• Creates Candidate record in NEW status
• Creates CandidateDocument record (RESUME, version 1)
• Logs audit events: CANDIDATE_CREATED + RESUME_UPLOADED
• Returns candidateId, candidateCode
• Returns 201 on success, 400 on validation, 401/403 on auth

---

6. UI Components

Main Page: /app/(app)/upload-resume/page.tsx (NEW)

Component: UploadResumePage (Client component)

Features:

• Form with fields: position (required), fullName (optional), resume (required), notes (optional)
• Position dropdown with 6 job titles
• Three-stage submission:
  1. POST presign → Get uploadUrl + storageKey
  2. PUT uploadUrl → Upload file directly to S3
  3. POST candidates → Create candidate record
• Progress indicator (50%, 75%, 100%)
• Success state with auto-redirect to /candidates/{id} after 1.5s
• Error handling with user-facing messages
• Cancel button → redirect to /dashboard

State Management:

• state: idle | uploading | success | error
• progress: 0-100%
• formData: applyingFor, fullName, notes
• selectedFile: File reference
• error: Error message string

Dropzone Component: Dropzone.tsx (NEW)

Features:

• Drag & drop + click to browse
• File type validation (PDF, DOC, DOCX)
• Size validation (10MB max)
• Visual feedback (drag active, error messages)
• Disabled state during upload

Exports:

• Accepts onFilesSelected callback
• Returns first selected file only

Layout: /app/(app)/layout.tsx (NEW)

Content: Minimal wrapper for (app) group layout

7. Supporting Files

Migration File: prisma/migrations/add_candidates_and_documents/migration.sql

• Creates candidate table
• Creates candidate_document table
• Creates foreign key relationships
• Creates indexes on candidateCode, status, applyingFor, uploadedByUserId

Database Tables

candidates

id              CUID PK
candidateCode   VARCHAR UNIQUE

---

RBAC & Security

Access Control:

• Page /upload-resume requires HR or ADMIN role
• API endpoints require HR or ADMIN role
• Uses requireRole([Role.HR, Role.ADMIN]) middleware
• Returns 403 Forbidden if user is MANAGER or SMO

JWT Authentication:

• Token from httpOnly cookie (name: auth_token)
• Payload includes userId, email, role
• Verified via verifyToken() before each request

File Validation:

• Allowed types: PDF, DOC, DOCX only
• Max size: 10MB
• Validated both client-side (Dropzone) and server-side (presign endpoint)

Data Flow

1. HR opens /upload-resume
   ↓
2. Selects PDF + position + name (optional)
   ↓
3. Clicks "Upload & Create Candidate"
   ↓
4. Frontend calls POST /api/uploads/presign
   ← Returns uploadUrl + storageKey
   ↓
5. Frontend uploads file directly to S3 (PUT uploadUrl)
   ↓
6. Frontend calls POST /api/candidates with storageKey
   ↓
7. Backend creates:
   - Candidate record (NEW status)
   - CandidateDocument record (RESUME)
   - Audit logs (CANDIDATE_CREATED + RESUME_UPLOADED)
   ↓
8. Returns candidateId + candidateCode
   ↓
9. Frontend shows success message
   ↓
10. Auto-redirect to /candidates/{candidateId} (W7)

Testing Notes

Manual Tests to Run

1. ✅ Upload valid PDF as HR → Candidate created, redirect to candidate page
2. ✅ Upload DOC/DOCX → File type validation works
3. ✅ Try uploading as MANAGER → 403 Forbidden
4. ✅ Upload >10MB file → Size validation error
5. ✅ Cancel flow → Redirect to /dashboard
6. ✅ Check audit logs → CANDIDATE_CREATED and RESUME_UPLOADED entries
7. ✅ Verify S3 → File exists at storageKey path
8. ✅ Optional fields → fullName should be null if blank

Known Limitations (Not W6)

• No virus scanning (status stays AVAILABLE)
• No resume parsing (name not auto-extracted)
• Candidate redirect goes to /candidates/{id} (detail page), not specifically to W7 screening tab
• No bulk upload
• No file drag-drop from file manager (only drag into dropzone area)

---

Integration Points

To W5 (Dashboard)

• Dashboard shows candidates (future: added to HR queue)
• Button on dashboard can link to /upload-resume

To W7 (Candidate Intake & HR Screening)

• W6 auto-redirects to /candidates/{id} after successful upload
• W7 should load candidate detail + resume
• W7 should enforce fullName before completing screening

To W3 (Access Requests)

• Uses same User role structure (HR, Admin allowed)
