Job Application Tracker AutoApply

Managing your job hunt shouldn’t feel like a full-time job. With AutoApply’s AI-powered job application tracker, you’ll stay organized and in control every step of the way.

Why You Need a Job Application Tracker

If you’re applying to jobs across LinkedIn, Indeed, company websites, and more, keeping track of each application can quickly become a mess. From our experience, folks often lose track of where they applied, what stage they’re at, or when they last followed up. That’s exactly the gap our platform fills.

Our job application tracker automatically logs every application you send through AutoApply’s system. So instead of juggling spreadsheets or sticky notes, you get a clear, real-time overview of your entire job search journey.

Feature Benefit
Automatic application logging Eliminates manual entry and errors
Real-time status updates Know exactly where each application stands
Integrated employer responses Never miss interview invites or messages
Customizable notifications Stay informed without feeling overwhelmed

Getting Started with Your Application Tracker Dashboard

So, how do you actually set this up? It’s pretty straightforward, and I want to make sure you get it right the first time. Once you log in, head to your dashboard and look for the “Application Tracker” tab. Click it, and you’ll see all your current applications, plus options to customize notifications and filters.

Setting your preferences takes about five minutes, but trust me, it’ll save you from tons of confusion later. Here’s a quick rundown of what you can adjust:

  • Email alerts when application statuses change
  • Weekly summaries to see your overall progress
  • Notifications for employer responses and upcoming interviews
  • Sorting and filtering options based on date, company, or job board

Creating Application Loops: Automate and Track Seamlessly

Here’s the thing — the “loops” you set up on AutoApply aren’t just fancy filters. They’re the heart of your automated job search. When you create a loop, you tell our AI what kind of jobs to apply for, where to look, and how often to run the search. The best part? Every application sent through a loop automatically shows up in your tracker.

How to Set Up a Loop

  1. Go to “My Loops” on your dashboard
  2. Click “Create New Loop”
  3. Enter your desired job title and location (remote options included)
  4. Select job boards to search (LinkedIn, Indeed, etc.)
  5. Enable automatic application logging and notifications

Loop Tracking Settings

You can also tweak how the tracking works within each loop. For example, choose how often you want status updates or enable response tracking to catch employer messages right away.

Keeping Tabs on Your Application Status in Real Time

One of the biggest headaches without a tracker is wondering what’s happening after you hit “apply.” Our system updates your application’s status as soon as we get new info, so you’re never left guessing.

Status What It Means Typical Timeline
Submitted Your application was sent successfully Immediate
Under Review Employer has looked at your application 1-3 days
Interview Scheduled Employer wants to meet 3-14 days
Rejected Application declined 1-30 days
No Response No employer activity detected yet 30+ days

What users tell us is that knowing these updates instantly helps them plan next steps—whether it’s prepping for an interview or moving on from a no-response. Plus, you can always manually update statuses if you hear something directly from an employer.

Filtering and Searching to Find What Matters

After a few weeks on the platform, your tracker will probably have a ton of entries. That’s why we built powerful filtering and search tools to help you zero in on what you need.

Filter by:

  • Application date ranges (last week, last month, custom)
  • Status (active, pending response, interviews, closed)
  • Source platforms like LinkedIn or company websites
  • Location preferences (cities, remote, hybrid)

Search by keywords

The search box lets you look up companies, job titles, or even specific keywords you remember from the job description. It’s a real time saver when you’re juggling multiple applications.

How AutoApply Integrates with Your Favorite Job Boards

Here’s where things get smooth: our Chrome extension works behind the scenes to sync applications and statuses from the job boards you already use. That means you don’t have to jump between sites to update your tracker.

Supported Platforms

We cover most major boards and company sites, including LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, ZipRecruiter, and Monster. Each platform’s integration varies slightly depending on the data they provide.

Job Board Auto-Apply Support Status Tracking Response Monitoring
LinkedIn Yes Full Yes
Indeed Yes Full Yes
Glassdoor Limited Basic No
ZipRecruiter Yes Full Limited
Monster Yes Basic No

From our perspective, this integration cuts your manual tracking workload by over 80%, letting you focus on preparing strong applications instead.
