Web based Decision Support System for Job Selection Using Analytic Hierarchy Process

Abstract

Decision Support System (DSS) provides information, models, and data manipulation tools to help make decisions in semi-structured and unstructured situations where no one knows exactly how the decision should be made [3]. DSS on the web and the Internet are being developed to support decision making, providing to various database and information pool along with software for data analysis. Computer based DSS are widely deployed in real projects. Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is a technique to solve multicriteria decision problems. In this paper, the decision support system for job selection is implemented by using AHP approach. AHP makes comparison between criteria and comparison between alternatives and then calculate the overall ranking of the alternatives by mathematically combining the priority matrices of criteria. The system assists jobseekers to find appropriate job easily within a short time.
