# Tracker

> Track job applications from watchlist to offer with a Kanban pipeline, automatic follow-up reminders, Auto-prepare resume tailoring, and contacts linking

## Overview

The Mokaru Tracker is your central hub for managing every job application. Whether you are applying to five roles or fifty, the Tracker gives you a visual pipeline, automatic reminders, and a contacts tab so nothing slips through the cracks.

<Note>
  The Tracker is the page at `/tracker` in the sidebar. Your top-level pipeline KPIs and weekly goal live on the [Dashboard](/features/dashboard).

## Tabs

The Tracker page has two top-level tabs:

* **Jobs** - the application pipeline (Kanban or list)
* **Contacts** - recruiters, hiring managers, and other people tied to your applications. See [Contacts](/features/contacts) for the full reference.

## Application Pipeline

### Viewing Your Applications

You can view applications in two ways:

* **Kanban board** - drag-and-drop cards between status columns. Great for a visual overview.
* **List view** - a compact table with sorting and filtering. Ideal when you have many applications.

Your preferred view is remembered automatically.

<Tip>
  Use the search bar to filter applications instantly. You can search by job title, company name, or tag - and combine multiple terms to narrow results.
</Tip>

### Application Statuses

Every application flows through these statuses. Move applications forward by dragging them on the Kanban board or updating the status inside the application detail view.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Watchlist">
    Jobs you are interested in but have not applied to yet. This is your shortlist.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Preparing">
    Auto-prepare is working on your application materials (resume tailoring, research). This status is set automatically.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Applied">
    You have submitted your application. A follow-up reminder is created automatically (14 days by default).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Response">
    The company has responded to your application.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Screening">
    You are going through an initial screening round (phone screen, recruiter call).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Interview Scheduled">
    An interview has been booked. Add the date and it syncs to your calendar.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Interviewed">
    You have completed an interview round. If there is another round, move it back to Interview Scheduled.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Offer">
    You have received a job offer. Record salary, benefits, and other details.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Negotiating">
    You are negotiating the terms of the offer.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Accepted">
    Congratulations - you have accepted the offer.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Applications can also be marked as **Rejected**, **Withdrawn**, or **No Response** at any point. These move to an archive view so they don't clutter the active pipeline.
</Note>

### Undo Status Changes

Made a mistake? Every status change can be undone within 5 minutes. Look for the undo option in the application timeline.

## Adding Applications

<Steps>
  <Step title="Click Add Application">
    Use the **Add Application** button at the top of the tracker.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter the basics">
    Fill in the job title, company name, and optionally a link to the job posting.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose Auto-prepare (optional)">
    Toggle Auto-prepare on and Mokaru will automatically tailor a copy of your base resume to the role.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    Your application is added to the Watchlist (or Preparing if Auto-prepare is enabled) and you are ready to go.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Already have the Mokaru browser extension installed? You can save jobs directly from job boards like LinkedIn and Indeed with one click - no need to copy and paste URLs.
</Tip>

### Duplicate Detection

If you try to add a job with the same URL as an existing application, Mokaru takes you to the existing one instead of creating a duplicate.

## Auto-prepare

When you add an application with Auto-prepare enabled, Mokaru does the heavy lifting for you:

1. **Duplicates your base resume** and creates a tailored version for the specific role
2. **Analyzes the job posting** to identify key requirements
3. **Optimizes your resume** with relevant keywords and (optionally) generates a cover letter

Your application moves from Watchlist to Preparing while this runs, and you will see live progress updates on the application detail page.

You can tune which pipeline steps run from [Settings → Applications](/features/settings).

<Tip>
  For continuous, hands-off application prep, set up an [Autopilot](/features/autopilot) agent. It auto-prepares matches as they come in, every day.
</Tip>

## Auto Follow-Ups

Staying on top of follow-ups is one of the most effective job search strategies. Mokaru makes this effortless.

* When you move an application to **Applied**, a follow-up reminder is automatically scheduled for 14 days later
* Follow-ups appear in your [Dashboard agenda](/features/dashboard) and sync to your connected calendar
* When the application status changes (for example, the company responds), the old follow-up is automatically removed
* You can turn auto follow-ups off globally in [Settings → Applications](/features/settings)

## Application Detail View

Click any application to see its full detail view. This is where you manage everything about a specific job.

    Add private notes to each application. Use these to jot down interview prep, conversation highlights, or anything you want to remember.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Timeline & History">
    See a full history of every status change, with timestamps. This helps you understand how long each stage took and spot bottlenecks.

  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Tags & Filtering

Organize your applications with custom tags. Tag by industry, location, priority, source, or anything else that makes sense.

* Tags are shared between Jobs and Contacts tabs, so filtering by a tag shows relevant items across both
* Use the filter bar to narrow your pipeline by status, tag, or archive state
* Combine tag filters with search for precise results

See [Tags](/features/tags) for the full reference.

## Bulk Operations

When managing many applications at once, you can:

* **Archive** applications that are no longer active to keep your pipeline clean
* **Delete** applications you added by mistake
* **Filter by status** to focus on a specific stage of the pipeline

<Note>
  Archived applications are not deleted. You can always view them by toggling the archive filter in the filter bar.
</Note>

## Tips for an Effective Job Search

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Keep your pipeline moving">
    Aim to have applications in multiple stages at once. If everything is stuck in Applied, it might be time to follow up or adjust your approach.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Use tags strategically">
    Create tags like "Top Choice", "Remote", or "Referral" to quickly filter and prioritize your applications.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Review your dashboard weekly">
    Check the [Dashboard](/features/dashboard) funnel and weekly activity. Patterns in your data - like low response rates - can signal that your resume or targeting needs adjustment.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Add notes after every interaction">
    Write a quick note after every call, email, or interview while details are fresh. These notes are invaluable when preparing for follow-up conversations.
  </Accordion>
