Tether is an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) for hiring managers in small to mid-range startups. The user interacts with it using a _Command Line Interface_, and it has a _Graphical User Interface_ created with JavaFX. It is written in Java, and has about 15 kLoC.

Given below are my contributions to the project.

* **New Feature**: Added status-tagging for applicants and interviewers
* What it does: allows hiring managers to set and view applicant statuses (among resume review, pending interview, completed interview, waiting list, accepted, rejected) as well as view interviewer statuses (among free and interview with [applicant name]).
* Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because hiring managers often need to view where applicants are in the hiring pipeline at any given time, and check interviewer availabilities for interviews at a glance.
* Highlights: This enhancement required an in-depth weighing of cost/benefit to users such as evaluating whether restricting users from setting custom applicant statuses was sensible, or blocking users from setting interviewer statuses at all was acceptable. Implementation wise there were some challenges for stackable interviewer statuses, especially in storing and parsing multiple statuses.
### Features

* **New Feature**: Added a command to filter persons by status.
* What it does: allows hiring managers to filter persons by valid applicant and interviewer statuses.
* Justification: This feature is a minor enhancement to the product that allows users to group persons quickly by statuses for a quick overview. Moreover, this feature comes in as an alternative to `find`, should users know enough information to `find` persons by their details.

* **New Feature**: Added a command to view overall statistics of stored data in terms of total applicants, interviewers and interviewers (as well as breakdown numbers of applicants
* and interviewers by status).

**New Feature**: Added status-tagging for applicants and interviewers.

* **Project management**:
* Set up team repo, github pages, and repo settings.
* Managed releases `v1.2` - `v1.4` (4 releases) on GitHub.

* **Enhancements to existing features**:
* Updated the GUI color scheme and touched up app layout (Pull requests [\#49](https://github.com/AY2324S2-CS2103T-F11-3/tp/pull/49/files), [\#121](https://github.com/AY2324S2-CS2103T-F11-3/tp/pull/121/files))
* Created a new `Interviewer` type from existing `Person` to more closely model usage for hiring managers in particular
* What it does: For applicants, this feature allows hiring managers to set and view applicant statuses among "resume review", "pending interview", "completed interview", "waiting list", "accepted", "rejected". For interviewers, this feature toggles their statuses automatically between "free" and "interview with [applicant name]".
* Justification: This feature improves the product significantly because hiring managers often need to record where each applicant is in the hiring pipeline at any given time, and check interviewer availabilities at a glance.
* Highlights: This enhancement required an in-depth weighing of cost/benefit to users such as whether restricting users from setting custom applicant statuses was sensible, or blocking users from setting interviewer statuses at all was acceptable. Implementation wise there were some challenges in rendering, storing, and reading multiple interviewer statuses for an interviewer.

* **Documentation**:
* User Guide:
* Added documentation for the features `applicant_status`, `filter_by_status`, and `view_overall_statistics` [\#147](https://github.com/AY2324S2-CS2103T-F11-3/tp/pull/147)
* Standardised descriptions for features, enhanced readability of descriptions, added more orientation sections to better introduce users to Tether: [\#246](https://github.com/AY2324S2-CS2103T-F11-3/tp/pull/246)
* Developer Guide:
* Added implementation details of the `applicant_status` feature.

**New Feature**: Added ability to filter persons by status.


* What it does: allows hiring managers to filter persons by valid applicant and interviewer statuses.
* Justification: This feature is a minor enhancement to the product that allows users to group persons quickly by statuses for a quick overview. Moreover, this feature is instrumental as an alternative to `find`, should users lack the necessary information to `find` persons by their personal details.


**New Feature**: Added a command to view overall statistics of stored data in terms of total applicants, interviewers, and interviews (as well as a breakdown of applicant and interviewer numbers by status).


**Enhancements to existing features**:
* Updated the GUI color scheme and touched up app layout (Pull requests [\#49](https://github.com/AY2324S2-CS2103T-F11-3/tp/pull/49/files), [\#121](https://github.com/AY2324S2-CS2103T-F11-3/tp/pull/121/files)).
