Job application tracker

Track every job application. See exactly where you win offers.

Careetra turns scattered applications into one clear pipeline: move each role through a kanban board, watch the funnel show where employers drop off, and stop guessing which channels work.

The pipeline

Every application, one honest board

A job tracker is only useful if it tells the truth. Careetra's seven-stage kanban — Applied, Screening, Interview R1, Interview R2, Final Round, Offer, Hired — shows every role at a glance, with Rejected and Ghosted kept visible instead of hidden. Nothing gets lost in an inbox or a forgotten spreadsheet row.

  • Add an application in seconds: company, role, channel, resume version
  • Drag work through the stages; every status change is timestamped
  • Rejected and Ghosted stay on the board so response rates stay real
  • Edit any application later — details, dates and notes included

The funnel

Where does your search actually stall?

Counts alone don't improve anything — conversion does. The application funnel shows how many of your applications earn a response, reach interviews, and end in offers, and points to the stage losing the most candidates. Career Pro adds the plain-language diagnosis and per-channel comparison.

  • Response rate, interview rate and offer rate from your real data
  • Channel performance: LinkedIn vs referrals vs company sites
  • Response-time trend so you know what "normal" looks like
  • Weekly activity view to keep your application pace honest

Why not a spreadsheet

Better than a tracker spreadsheet

Google Sheets and Excel trackers work — until they don't. Every calculation is manual, every insight is something you have to build yourself.

Zero formulas

Response rates, interview conversion and totals are calculated for you — no broken COUNTIF, ever.

Status history built in

Every stage change is timestamped automatically, so dates and response times are always accurate.

A board, not rows

A kanban pipeline you can read at a glance, on your phone between interviews.

Keep your CSV and JSON exports — your data always leaves with you.

Job application tracker FAQ

How do I track job applications?

Record each application with the company, role, date, channel and status, then update the status as it moves — screening, interviews, offer. Careetra does this with a kanban board and timestamps every change automatically; a spreadsheet does it with manual rows and formulas.

Is Careetra's application tracker really free?

Yes. The free plan includes unlimited application tracking, the kanban and table views, totals for applications, offers and response rate, and CSV/JSON export. Career Pro ($7.99/month or $63.99/year) adds the full funnel diagnostics, channel and activity analytics, and the Current Job salary dashboard.

What should a good job tracker include?

At minimum: every application with its date and source, the current stage, and the outcome. The useful part is what Careetra adds on top — conversion rates between stages, response times per channel, and which of your resume versions actually gets replies.

Can I import my existing tracker spreadsheet?

You can paste or re-enter applications quickly, and export everything back out as CSV or JSON at any time — including from the free plan. Your data is never locked in.

Is my job search data private?

Applications are stored privately against your account and never sold or shared. Careetra is operated by Origin Collective Limited, registered in England and Wales; details are in the privacy policy.
