One of the most powerful features of the networking tracker is linking contacts to your job applications. A single recruiter contact can be linked to multiple applications, giving you a clear picture of who is involved in each opportunity.How to Link
You can create links in two ways:- From an application: Open a job application and add a contact in the contacts section. You can pick an existing contact or create a new one.
- From a contact: The Jobs section on a contact’s detail page shows all linked applications.
Linking contacts to applications helps you track which recruiter or hiring manager is responsible for each role. This is especially useful when working with multiple agencies or interviewing at large companies.
