Show HN: I made Kanban board and browser extension for job application tracking
- pvsukale3 5y agoHello HN, maker of this tool here. I have always thought that we could do a better job of helping out job candidates with job applications. So I have created a special kanban board focused on job hunting. It has the following features: - A browser extension with which you can add jobs from anywhere with a single click. - We will remind you of your pending applications via email every weekend. So this way you never miss the deadline to apply. - Adding job-related info for each job such as deadline, company, apply links. - Taking notes, adding contacts, adding to-do items, and tracking events for each job application. Profilehunt has been built using/uses the following technologies. Ruby on Rails - Web framework StimulusJS - Javascript TailwindCSS - CSS Redis - Memory store Postgres - Database Nginx - Reverse proxy AWS Cloudfront - CDN AWS lightsail - VPS If you are interested head out to https://profilehunt.net/ https://profilehunt.net/ and let me know what you think. Thank you.
- robofanatic 5y agolooks neat! but I guess tracking tool like this may be useful for recruiters than candidates.
- pvsukale3 5y agoThanks! Yes. My future plan for Profilehunt is to build a fully-featured recruiting solution for employers which updates the application status for candidates in real-time. I think there is room for improvement for both sides of the application process.
