The job tracker that updates itself.
Save jobs from your phone or browser. Statuses update from your email and job portals, under rules you can always see and undo. Built for Indian job seekers (Naukri, LPA, notice period), and works everywhere.
The demo uses fictional data, is read-only, and may take a minute to wake up.
Forty applications, forty places things change
Statuses change where you can't see them
A portal says "viewed", an email says "not selected", and your spreadsheet never knows.
Job descriptions disappear
The posting comes down the week of your interview.
Answers get forgotten
What notice period did you give this company? Which CTC did you quote?
Follow-ups slip
Nobody remembers to nudge a recruiter after ten quiet days.
What ShortList does
Capture in one tap
Share a job from LinkedIn or Naukri on Android, or save it with the Chrome extension, description included. Spreadsheet import too.
Updates itself
Job emails and your applications list on job portals move statuses forward. Confirmation emails even create the application. Offers always wait for you; everything is undoable.
Follow up on time
One inbox for changes to review, follow-ups due and possible ghosting, with email and LinkedIn drafts you send yourself.
Prepare
A prep pack for each interview from the JD, your resume and your saved answers.
Ask your search
"How many rejections this month?" is answered exactly by the database. Other questions are answered with links to the records.
