Simple Job Application Tracker

The useful distinction

A simple tracker is a set of decisions, not a large feature list. It should tell you what a role is, where it stands and what you want to do next.

Simplicity is a product behaviour: Candidate keeps the workspace focused on useful context.

A practical workflow

Use the following as a working sequence, then adapt it to the companies and conversations in front of you.

• Use a concise pipeline
• Keep one dated timeline for meaningful events
• Add detail only when it makes the next decision easier

Keep the system workable

Keep one clear record for the opportunity, its current stage, the people involved and the next action. That gives you enough structure to return to the search without adding ceremony.

Candidate keeps this context together so a useful update after an application, conversation or exercise does not need to be copied across several tools.
