Hi,

I have tried to model the job portal use case as in class diagram below. I have made Skill entity as shareable by both job as well as job seeker hoping to reuse.

questions:
1) do I need different JobSkill and SeekerSkill entities may be. In both cases how will I model it in database ?
2) I need to do skill matching for:
a) employer e1: find all - 1{job + 1{candidate}N }N
b) candidate c1: find all - 1{job + employer }N

How can I do above things using hibernate ? do I need to resort to SQL ?

Regards,

Miten.
