Application Tracker

A tool that makes a job search visible. A status history per application and a Sankey diagram showing where applications actually end.

Application Tracker

Context

A job search quickly produces dozens of parallel threads: posting found, documents adapted, sent, followed up, interviewed, answered. A spreadsheet copes for a while, but it never shows where applications actually stall.

Brief

A tool that stores not just a status but the whole history: planned, applied, first through third interview, offer, and finally accepted, rejected, no answer or withdrawn.

Approach

  • Process instead of a status field. Every application carries an editable history, so a late rejection does not erase what came before.
  • A Sankey diagram as the central view. It shows exactly where the funnel breaks.
  • Four languages including Arabic with right to left layout. Light and dark following the system setting.
  • From a 320 pixel phone to a large display without horizontal scrolling.
  • Shipped as a Cloudflare Worker, plus a standalone demo build with no accounts and no stored data.

Outcome

In daily personal use. The demo runs without sign in on sample data, and the source is open.
