Notes Stack for Job Seekers

Job hunting is a full-time research project. You're browsing job listings, researching companies, prepping for interviews, and tracking where you've applied. Notes Stack keeps all that context attached to the pages where you found it — so you never lose track of an opportunity.

Why Job Seekers Choose Notes Stack

Your job search lives in the browser. LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Indeed, company career pages — you're constantly switching between them. Notes Stack sits right there in the side panel, ready to capture every important detail.

• Application notes on job listings — Open a job posting and jot down why it interests you, how your experience aligns, and questions you'd want to ask. Come back to that listing and your notes are already there.
• Company research on careers pages — Visit a company's "About" page, Glassdoor profile, or recent news articles and capture insights about culture, values, growth, and red flags.
• Interview prep checklists — Create task lists for each interview round: company research, STAR stories to prepare, questions to ask, logistics to confirm.
• Color-coded stacks for application stages — Track your pipeline with stacks: "Interested", "Applied", "Phone Screen", "Interview", "Offer", "Rejected". See where every opportunity stands at a glance.

A Real-World Workflow

1. Browse job listings — You find an interesting role on LinkedIn. Open Notes Stack and write down what caught your eye: the tech stack matches, the team sounds strong, the company just raised Series B.
2. Research the company — Visit their careers page, Glassdoor profile, and recent blog posts. Add notes at each page about culture, mission, and any concerns.
3. Tag and organize — Assign all related notes to an "Applied" stack once you submit your application.
4. Prep for the interview — Create an interview prep note with a task list: review the job description, prepare STAR stories, research the interviewer on LinkedIn, prepare thoughtful questions.
5. Set a reminder — Add a reminder for the morning of the interview to review your prep notes.
6. Track the outcome — After the interview, add follow-up notes. Move the stack to "Interview" or "Offer" as you progress. PIN-lock any salary negotiation notes.
7. Review your search — Export everything to CSV for a complete record of your job search journey.

Your job search deserves the same organization as the job itself. Notes Stack gives you a lightweight, private system that works right where you're already looking.
