Android Mobile Application to Advertise Job Vacancies for the Disabled

This paper proposes the development of a mobile application to advertise job vacancies for the disabled. The justification is based on the high number of people with disabilities in Brazil, who have some special needs, and who have the right to work. And also, to help companies comply with the legislation through a tool to advertise job vacancies. Developing an application is a current and innovative solution, since today more than 80% of the population has access to a smartphone. And it's an interaction and access technology that can be successfully applied to help the community solve a problem. Although work is fundamental in the life of a disabled person, companies claim that they have great difficulties in allocating these professionals in the workforce. The main difficulty exposed by employers is the lack of professional training for the disabled, and also the lack of interest in filling the vacancies. The Brazilian Institute for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (IBDD) says that the big problem is that companies do not publicize vacancies for people with disabilities. Therefore, the purpose of this paper refers to the development of an application, designed, modeled and developed using Android, to assist in the process of posting job vacancies for the disabled.
