Managing the previously described documents and information is tricky for to do for just one company, let alone many at once. Currently, a user might use Outlook to store contacts, Google Calendar to schedule interviews, Yahoo to send emails, his cell phone to talk to recruiters, and his floor to collect the business cards he might never look out at again. A job seeker lacks a way to collate and manage the information he collects between platforms and effectively organize his job search. This lack of organization leads to the job seeker spending wasting valuable time that he could be spending on academic or social activities. Furthermore, the difficult difficulty of coordinating job seeking efforts with multiple companies in parallel might lead to the user considering fewer places and thus potentially sacrificing an unknown dream job or offer negotiation opportunity.

JobTracker is a platform that a job seeker can use to coordinate his job seeking efforts. It provides a framework that allows the user to organize his documents and create profiles for companies he wishes to apply to. For each company, the user may create to-do lists, contact lists, and schedules as well as track contact history histories and his current stage in the recruitment process. JobTracker aims to make job searching more efficient by giving the user the tools to effectively organize his search.Briefly state the problem(s) that your project will seek to solve. Take the user's point of view. Consider what the user's goals are, and what obstacles lie in the way.
