Up to a certain point, our work on ITConnect felt… invisible.
Yes, we had code.
Yes, the database was working.
Yes, the designs were ready.
But it still didn’t feel like a real product.
Until something small happened —
A job seeker signed up… and got routed to the correct dashboard.
A company registered… and saw their space to post positions.
That’s when it hit us:
It’s working. For real.
🧱 Bringing the Pieces Together
We had built login, role separation, the database, and layouts in isolation.
But now they were talking to each other.
One click here. Data appears there.
Dashboard logic. Profile previews. Form validation. Tiny things — that felt huge.
It’s in these moments where a project starts to move from “we’re building something” to “someone else can actually use this.”
💭 A Quick Lesson We Learned
The "aha!" moments don’t come from finishing big features.
They come from connecting them —
from that first real interaction where everything just... clicks.
And honestly, those are the moments that keep us going.
