A fuzzy MADM (Multiple Attribute Decision Making) expert system for job matching / Refhaldy Azuardi

Registered to jobs searching websites, searching the newspaper advertisement and other
method are used in job searching among students. Students faced with a lot of problems
to find suitable job when they graduate soon because of no facilities especially from the
faculty itself that can assist in providing alternative jobs for them. So, integration
between fuzzy and Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) method will become
the technique to solve this problem. The main purpose of this research is to develop the
Fuzzy MADM expert system prototype for job matching problem. Students fi*om four
courses have been selected in this research and matched with six jobs selected. This
system can assist students in finding suitable jobs that match their skills and
qualifications. Weight will assign to computer knowledge and skill and additional values
sub-attributes were the earliest stage before fuzzy process started. User profile
information collected firom system used as fuzzy inference engine inputs data. The fiizzy
stage is from fuzzification to defuzzification will produce the result of system. The
process of system will end with rank the fuzzy result with the weight of user
preferences. The validity and reliability test was done but it is not enough to know that
the fuzzy rules are valid. However the general testing using samples data can give the
expectation that the fuzzy rules developed was valid. The system will produced the
result but still that was not the result that student can follow himdred percent. In the
future development, the construction of the fuzzy rules, can use the real expert such as
employer to know the exact requirement for each job.
