Job Application Tracker Spreadsheet

Keep your whole job search in one place. Log each application, and this tracker reminds you when to follow up, counts your interviews, and shows your response rate, interview rate and which job sources actually work.

What'S Inside (6 Tabs)

• Start Here: setup steps and a colour key.
• Dashboard: total applications, this week vs your weekly goal, response rate, interview rate, offers, follow-ups due and interviews in the next 7 days, plus charts for applications per week, your funnel, and which sources lead to interviews.
• Applications: 300 rows with dropdowns for work type, source and status (Applied, Screening, Interviewing, Offer, Accepted, Rejected, No response, Withdrawn). Follow-up dates are calculated and highlighted when due. Closed applications fade out.
• Interviews: each round with date, time, format, interviewer, prep notes, thank-you sent and outcome. Interviews in the next week are highlighted.
• Contacts: recruiters, referrals and people you meet, with a follow-up reminder.
• Settings: your name, target role, weekly goal, follow-up days, and every dropdown list (edit them to suit you).

Who It'S For

Job seekers, career changers, new grads and anyone running an active job search. Also a thoughtful gift for a friend who's job hunting.
