Show HN: Trace, track your job applications with ease (tracebynyenooke.netlify.app)

Job hunting can be really stressful. Sometimes, you could apply to lots of jobs before getting the first yes, especially for entry level positions. I created trace so you don’t have to forget what jobs you’ve applied to. With Trace, you can stay on top of the job process. With the kanban style drag and drop, you can easily keep up with what stage you’re at in the job process. Every and all feedback is appreciated.

I had a similar idea and ended up using either Airtable or Sheets. If you're creating a portfolio, I suggest including more screenshots of your application and storing the data using local storage. For me, the problem was not real - all I had to do was label the status of my applications as either applied, rejected, or pending for response.

Nice project, wondering what is the difference with other tools like huntr.co? Did you found that there's no one that is trying to solve this?

You might want to consider adding some screenshots or features before asking ppl to sign in. Still looks very cool and professional. How is it different than tools like hunter?
