Personal Job Search Dashboard

A personal dashboard for keeping job leads, applications, interviews, follow-ups, and offers in one place.

Problem

Key features
  • Status tracking for leads, applications, interviews, offers, and rejections.
  • Role notes for pay, location, schedule, contacts, and requirements.
  • Follow-up dates and next actions for each opportunity.

Application Organizer

Key features
  • Application record structure for links, contacts, and notes.
  • Document version notes for resume and cover letter variants.
  • Follow-up checklist for each role.
