24 alternatives to Good old emails and LLMs for automating job tracking
So I spent the last few days building Jobstack. The logic is quite simple. You apply to jobs and you get emails, you trade emails back and forth from interviews, questions and others until the role is either accepted or you are rejected. Also easy to apply to hundreds of roles and not being to know where you stand easily. With Josbtack, you sign up, get a unique email and forward emails to the url. And it uses LLMs to extract company details , tries to find information online about them and presents that to you. Every email you forward becomes part of your timeline with the company. It also…

Hey HN, I'm Serdar, and after getting laid off, I found myself drowning in job applications. LinkedIn, Dice, Otta and company websites were exhausting and demoralizing. That's why my friend and I created Wobo (wobo.ai) – an AI recruiter that automates the entire process. But Wobo goes beyond just matching keywords on your resume. We use LLMs and a series of specialized questions to create a detailed "persona" of you, capturing not just your skills and experience, but also your personality and how you approach different situations. Here's how Wobo works: Gets to know you: We analyze your…

Hey folks. Rolepad is a product born out of my dissatisfaction with hiring processes - both as a candidate and as a hiring manager. Processes that are non-transparent, inefficient, and full of frustration for both sides. This early iteration has focused on the application tracking aspects with a few extra goodies. These days it is common to apply to dozens of positions (some users track over a hundred opportunities). Without a record-keeping system, it can quickly become an unmanageable mess. Even the better-organized among us often end up juggling spreadsheets, emails, and various notes.…

(not sure why my previous post didn't appear on Show HN even though I included it in the title, mods please remove if not allowed) Ever applied for a job and never heard back? Many companies just go silent instead of sending rejection emails, leaving you guessing whether to keep waiting or move on. I faced this frustration during my own internship search, especially when there was no real point of contact (automated replies don't count, lol). So, I built didtheyghost.me, a simple open-source tool that crowdsources job application responses. This isn't a job scraper or another job board. It's…

Hi HN, I built an open-source job tracker that removes manual updates by ingesting job-related emails. Instead of asking users to log applications or update statuses, the system listens to forwarded emails, extracts structured data using an LLM, and updates the application pipeline automatically. The interesting parts from an engineering perspective: - Event-driven email ingestion via webhooks - LLM-based extraction with deterministic backend decisions - Fuzzy matching to upsert applications instead of creating duplicates - Server-side aggregation and caching instead of heavy DB queries -…

Hello! I used an LLM to extract structured data from each comment on the “Ask HN: Who is Hiring? (January 2024)” post, available at: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38842977. This created a dataset of 400+ jobs with data such as title, company name, location, is job remote, salary data, and the URL/email to contact. For the UI, a NextJS static site was created to filter and view the structured data.

RankResume▲14I’m excited to share my second SaaS project, RankResume (https://rankresume.io), following my first launch, IdeaPulse (https://ideapulse.io). As a job seeker, I was frustrated by the constant need to tweak my resume for each application to get past ATS filters and to land the first phone screen. I built RankResume to tackle that problem by letting you upload your resume and provide a job description or URL which it then generates a tailored resume and cover letter that highlights the most relevant skills and keywords for that specific opportunity. I built this out of…

I was laid of from a YC company last November and during my job search I got this idea to build an extension that would help me apply to jobs a lot faster. 2 months later, InstaApply was born. The extension really makes applying to jobs super easy. Usually, it takes applying to dozens of jobs to land something and requires filling out the same data over and over again. Which is pretty annoying. This is where InstaApply comes in, it automates all the boring parts of applying to jobs with Ai, condensing the process to just seconds. InstaApply will fill out all the form fields, tailor your…

I've found it useful to maintain email filters for technical recruitment companies so that I can separate these from my other email and review at a time when I can give them the attention required, depending on whether I'm currently looking for work. This takes regular maintenance and so I've created a repository along with some scripts for automating the filter strings for my GMail account. The hope is that others may find this useful and contribute domains to the repository. Note that as per the README, this is NOT a spam list. Recruiter email is essential for finding work. This is just to…

My (revised) MVP - the concept is to put all job-finding activities in one app: job search/listings, emails/replies, resume/portfolio pages. Automate the searches, have an email editor that sends out themeable HTML emails, know which recipients are interested, and point them to a portfolio site of sorts. Briefly,the main features: * Aggregates jobs via job board APIs based on skills (searches twice a day) * Includes Twitter job search, displays linked content in-app * Email editor/sender (can be scheduled), with HTML templates * Email analytics (track clicks and views) * Preserves email and…
