Jobenu - Track Your Job Applications

Abstract

Jobenu is a Chrome extension designed to reduce the friction of tracking job applications. The project allows job seekers to capture job details from the browser, store them in a dashboard, update application status, and retain control over their data.

Problem

Job seekers often apply through many platforms and company pages, which makes it difficult to maintain a reliable history of submitted applications. Manual spreadsheets require repeated data entry and are easy to abandon during high-volume application periods.

Method

1. Install Extension: Get Jobenu from Chrome Web Store and add it to your browser.
2. Submit Applications: Apply to positions on preferred job sites and company pages.
3. Record Job Info: Use the Jobenu toolbar icon to automatically capture job details.
4. Manage Applications: Use the Jobenu dashboard to review, update, and sort your job applications.

Key Features

• One-Click Save: After applying for a job, save all the job details with a single click.
• Automatic Extraction: Jobenu automatically extracts and stores job information, ensuring accuracy and convenience.
• User-Friendly Interface: An intuitive design that makes tracking your applications a breeze.
• Data Control: Users have full control over their application data, with options to export, clear, or request their data at any time.

Technical Overview

Jobenu is a Chrome extension built using Svelte Kit and Tailwind CSS, with Firebase as the backend and storage solution. This stack ensures a fast, responsive user experience and reliable data management for all your job application needs.

Outcome

The extension turns application tracking into a browser-level workflow instead of a separate administrative task. By combining automatic extraction, dashboard management, and data export, Jobenu helps users maintain a clearer application history with less manual effort.
