The tracker spreadsheet (Excel + Google Sheets)
- Applications: company, role, location, work style, job link, source, priority, date applied, salary range and a status pipeline from Saved to Accepted, with days since you applied, a next follow-up date and a Flag: Interview soon, Offer, Long silence, Follow up now, Follow up soon, Waiting, Not applied or Closed.
- Interviews: each call, skills task or interview with the interviewers, prep notes, questions to ask, how it went and a thank-you reminder. Flags show Today, Soon, Scheduled, Send thank-you or Done.
- Contacts: recruiters, referrals, former colleagues and people you meet, with last contact, next follow-up and a Reconnect flag after 60 quiet days.
- Offers: pay, bonus, other amounts, time off, work style, commute and start date side by side, with a yearly pay total from your own numbers, the gap to the top offer, your 1-5 scores for growth, team and balance, and respond-by reminders.
- Weekly Goals: 52 weeks of applications, new contacts, interviews and offers compared with your goals, marked Yes, Partly or No.
- Dashboard: 12 live numbers, a funnel chart (applied, screening, interview, final round, offer, accepted), results by job source, the last 8 weeks, upcoming interviews and every follow-up in date order.
- Interview Prep: pick a job to see its details, every interview with your notes and questions, and linked contacts on one printable page.
- Checks: flags duplicate App IDs, App IDs that are not on Applications, a salary minimum above the maximum, missing dates and an Offer status with no offer row.
- Setup: your name, money symbol, follow-up timing, weekly goals and your own job sources (up to 40).
