Job Search Planner

Everything is saved inside your browser on this device. Nothing is uploaded and there is no account, so no company holds a copy of your job search records. They are not encrypted, though: anyone who can use this device and browser can open them, so keep the device locked. Download a backup regularly (Settings → Data & backup → Back up now) and keep it somewhere as safe as the records themselves.

Yes. Open index.html and it runs fully offline. You can also host the folder on any website and choose “Install app” in Chrome or Edge to get a desktop or phone icon that works offline.

Yes. The layout adapts to phones and tablets with a bottom navigation bar. Each device keeps its own data, so use Back up / Restore to move records between devices.

Go to Settings → Data & backup → Erase records. Every sample record is removed, and so are the sample person’s name, contact details, summary and skills, so nothing of theirs ends up on your resume or letters. Your other settings are kept.

No. Nothing here writes for you. It keeps your history once, lets you choose what each version includes, and fills in the company, role, hiring manager and your name in letters you have written yourself.

All three layouts are one column of real text with standard headings — Summary, Experience, Education, Skills, Projects and Certifications — and no tables, columns, images or icons, which is the format those systems read most reliably. The app does not score your resume, and no app can promise interviews.

A follow-up is due a set number of days (seven unless you change it) after the date you applied, while the application is still at “Applied”, then the same number of days after each follow-up you send. After the number of follow-ups you set (two unless you change it) the app suggests closing it as “No reply”. A thank-you note is due the day after each interview that was not cancelled.

Each rate is out of the applications you have sent in the period. A response is anything back from the employer, including a rejection; an application reached an interview if it has an interview that was not cancelled, or reached that stage on the board.

Base pay (or hourly rate × hours a week × 52) + target bonus + equity grant ÷ vesting years + retirement match + other benefits − commute cost per office day × office days a week × the weeks you work (52 less your paid days off ÷ 5). The sign-on bonus is shown separately. These are estimates for planning from what you entered.

No. It works offline and does not go online at all. Paste the link to each posting into the application; it is kept as text, with a button to copy it.

No. It is made for one person on one device, and records do not sync between devices. To move to another device, save a backup and restore it there.
