This dashboard helped me stay focused, hopeful, and organized during my job search while recovering from spinal surgery. It includes real templates and systems I actually used to track job applications, networking efforts, follow-ups, and portfolio projects.
- Job application tracker (with status columns)
- Resume and cover letter version control
- Employer research notes
- Follow-up calendar
- Personal motivators + progress log
- Notion
- Google Sheets
- Calendar reminders
- Trello (light use for weekly priorities)
It’s not code, but it’s a real example of how I build systems to solve problems. I used these tools every day to stay on track—and even in a tough season, they helped me stay consistent.
