JobNest is a local-first desktop app for tracking job applications without spreadsheets, accounts, or cloud sync. Organize your pipeline, save notes and links, search applications easily, and export clean CSV/Excel reports.
Hey everyone 👋
I built JobNest after getting frustrated with spreadsheets and overly complicated job trackers during my own job search.
Most tools required accounts, cloud sync, or tried to do too much. I wanted something simple, fast, and privacy-first.
So I built a local-first desktop app where everything stays on your machine.
Current features:
application pipeline tracking
notes & links
search/filtering
Kanban + list views
CSV/Excel exports
It’s still early, and I’d genuinely love feedback from people currently job hunting.
Thanks for checking it out 🙌
