Verification Layer: to Verify the already stored Certificates and Transcripts on the Blockchain by University Admins or by HRs in Corporates. Once this profile is created (customized Edubuk profile for each candidate: freshers, students and employees), then we will use AI (Artificial Intelligence), NLP algorithm to sift through the Edubuk profile of the candidate having all the information about his/her academics, skills, credits, grades, previous employment history (if any) and then this information will be used to map it with the most relevant job openings out there in the market.
