Free job application tracker
Log each application, move it through stages and never lose track of a follow-up.
About the job application tracker
Once you have sent more than a few applications, it gets hard to remember which company you wrote to and when. This tracker gives you a board and a table for the same list. Each entry holds the company, role, date, status, notes and a link to the ad. Everything is saved in your browser on your device and is not uploaded.
How it works
- Each application has a company, role, date applied, status, notes and a link to the job posting.
- The board view shows applications in columns by status, so you can see at a glance what is waiting and what has moved on.
- The table view lists the same entries in rows, which is easier for sorting and scanning many applications.
- Your data is saved on the device you use. An account is optional: sign in and the tracker is also saved to your account and syncs between devices.
- You can export your list to CSV and open it in a spreadsheet. Clearing your browser data deletes the tracker, so export now and then as a backup.
How to use it
Step 1
Add an application as soon as you send it, with the date, a link to the ad and any notes.
Step 2
Update the status after each reply: for example applied, interview, offer or closed.
Step 3
Once a week, review the list for follow-ups, then export a CSV copy to keep safe.
Good to know
- Paste the job description text or key points into the notes. Ads are often taken down before the interview.
- Write down the next step and a date, such as follow up on Friday. A status alone does not remind you to act.
- Record which version of your resume you sent, so you can match your answers in the interview.
Questions
Where is my data stored?
In your browser, on your device. If you sign in to a free account it is also saved to your account so you can open it on other devices. Without an account it is not uploaded, and no one else can see it.
What happens if I clear my browser data?
The tracker will be emptied, because that is where the list is kept. Export a CSV from time to time so you have a copy you can reload or open in a spreadsheet.
Can I use it on my phone and laptop?
Each device keeps its own list, because nothing is synced. Pick one device as your main one, or export a CSV to move your list across.
