## Job Application Form



The Job Application Form is a web application developed using Flask, SQLAlchemy, and Flask-Mail. It allows job applicants to fill out a form with their personal information and submit it. The submitted form data is stored in a SQLite database and an email notification is sent to the applicant with the submitted details.



### Features



- **Form Submission**: Users can fill out the job application form by providing their first name, last name, email, available start date, and current occupation.

- **Database Storage**: The submitted form data is stored in a SQLite database (`data.db`) using SQLAlchemy.

- **Email Notification**: After successful form submission, an email is sent to the applicant's provided email address using Flask-Mail.

- **Flash Messages**: Flash messages are used to display a success message to the applicant after form submission.

- **Responsive Design**: The form is designed using Bootstrap to ensure a responsive and user-friendly interface.

The application requires the following dependencies:



- blinker==1.6.2

- click==8.1.3

### How to Run



To run the Job Application Form:



1. Make sure you have the required dependencies installed in your Python environment.

2. Execute the `app.py` script using Python.

3. The application will start running locally.

4. Open a web browser and go to `http://localhost:5001` to access the form.

5. Fill out the form fields with the required information.

6. **Note: Replace the `MAIL_USERNAME` and `MAIL_PASSWORD` in `app.py` with your own email address and password to enable email notifications.**

7. Click the "Submit" button to submit the form.

8. If the form submission is successful, a success message will be displayed, and an email notification will be sent to the provided email address.



### Database



The submitted form data is stored in a SQLite database named `data.db`. The database file will be created automatically when the application is run for the first time. The `Form` model class in `app.py` defines the table structure and columns for storing the form data.



### Templates



The application uses the `index.html` template file to render the job application form. The template file is located in the `templates` directory. It is designed using HTML and Bootstrap to provide an intuitive and responsive form interface.
