Job Application Tracker

Auto-fill required fields or Auto-fill all fields remembers what you type or select for each application question and fills in the same answer next time it sees that exact question, on any site.

Once a step's fields are filled in, automatically clicks Next/Continue to move to the next one — all the way to the Review step, where it stops. You still click Submit yourself.
Reliably supported on Workday, Phenom, Taleo and many other apply forms.

CV auto-attach

Upload your CV once and it's auto-attached to any resume/CV upload field the extension finds on a form (needs "Auto-fill required fields" or "Auto-fill all fields" above turned on too). Stored in your Drive, linked from the sheet's "CV" tab.

Email integration

Watches your Gmail for rejection, interview-invitation, and offer emails and updates each row's Status automatically. Runs as a script deployed to your own Google account — this extension never reads your email itself.

Don't get your job-application emails in Gmail? You can still use this: create a free Gmail account, then from your regular inbox go to Quick settings → See all settings → Accounts and Import and use "Import mail and contacts" to forward your existing mail into it. Connect email integration to that Gmail account instead.

Before you set up: turn on the Google Apps Script API for the Google account you're connecting — visit script.google.com/home/usersettings and toggle "Google Apps Script API" to On. This is a one-time, per-account setting Google requires before any app (including this one) can deploy a script on your behalf; skipping it will make setup fail with a permission error.

What setup looks like — none of this means something's wrong:

1. Click "Set up email integration" below.
2. If a tab shows "We're sorry, a server error occurred. Please wait a bit and try again," just refresh that tab — a normal, temporary Google hiccup.
3. You'll land on "Job Application Tracker Google Sheets - Email Scanner (Unverified)." Click Review Permissions.
4. Google shows "Google hasn't verified this app... Until the developer verifies this app with Google, you shouldn't use it." Expected — see why below.
5. Click Advanced.
6. Click "Go to Job Application Tracker Google Sheets - Email Scanner (unsafe)."
7. You'll see "Job Application Tracker Google Sheets - Email Scanner wants access to your Google Account."
8. Click Select all.
9. Click Continue.
10. Back here, click Sync now (top of this popup) to pick up the new status right away.

Why the "unverified" warning: this script is generated fresh for your Google account alone at the moment you click setup — there's no single shared app Google could verify once for everyone. It's the same warning you'd see deploying any personal Apps Script project yourself; it doesn't mean this build is any less trustworthy than the rest of the extension. See the Support link below if you'd like more detail.

How far back the scanner searches your Gmail for matching emails. "All mail" removes the date filter entirely — every email in your account gets checked against the subject-line filter above on every run, which is slower and (rarely) more prone to false positives on old threads, but nothing gets missed just because it's old. Changing this is saved automatically the next time you click "Run now"; the hourly automatic scan picks it up too.

Use a different spreadsheet

Paste the link to a tracker sheet this extension created for you — on this install or another one signed into the same Google account.

Import

To bring in historical applications, add rows straight to the "Applications" tab of a spreadsheet this extension already created for you, using the same column headers that are already there.

Job URL is the one required column — it's what the extension matches against the job page to know a row exists there and show the "already applied" badge. Every other column is optional, but filling in Company and Job Title too helps it match more reliably in edge cases, like a listing that redirects through LinkedIn.
