Description

Stop losing track of who you applied to. This Job Search Tracker + Interview Prep Planner puts your whole search in one workbook: every application with its status, a follow-up flag when a company has been quiet too long, interviews with a "Prep needed" alert, networking contacts with reach-out reminders, a side-by-side offer comparison and a weekly application goal. It works in Microsoft Excel (2016 / 2019 / 2021 / 365), Google Sheets and LibreOffice: type into the yellow cells and the formulas do the rest. Inside the workbook (8 tabs): • Settings: search name, target role, start date, weekly application goal, follow-up delay in days, and your own statuses, sources, interview types and outcomes. Each status has 1/0 flags (applied, active, got a reply, reached interview, offer) so you can rename stages without breaking the numbers. • Applications: 200 rows for company, role, location, source, date applied, status, salary range, contact, job link, last update, next action and next action date. Automatic columns show days since update and a Follow up / On track flag. • Interviews: 100 rows with date, time, type, interviewer, "Prep done?" and outcome. Status shows Scheduled, Soon, Needs outcome or the result, and upcoming interviews without prep are flagged "Prep needed". • Contacts: 100 rows for people who can refer you, with last contact, next follow-up date and a Reach out reminder. • Offers: compare up to 5 offers by total yearly pay (base, bonus %, equity, retirement match, benefits value), year-1 total with sign-on bonus, hourly equivalent, rank and a counter-offer target based on your own ask %. • Weekly Log: 16 weeks of applications sent vs your goal, interviews per week and cumulative total. • Dashboard: applications sent, active, replies, reached interview, offers, reply rate, interview rate, pipeline by status, results by source (which job boards actually reply), follow-ups due, next 6 interviews, contacts to reach out to, data checks and 2 charts. • Start Here: a 2-minute guide. You also get 3 step-by-step AI workflows for ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any AI assistant: an application tailor (fit check, resume bullet changes and a short cover note, plus a row for your tracker), an interview prep planner (likely questions, STAR stories and a countdown plan per interview) and an offer negotiation brief. There are also 40 copy-paste prompts for finding roles, resumes and cover letters, follow-up emails, interview prep, offers and keeping your search healthy. A full example is filled in so you can see how everything works: a fictional Product Analyst search with 29 applications, 20 logged interviews, 12 contacts and 3 offers. Delete the example rows and type your own. Instant download: one .xlsx file plus Markdown guides that open anywhere. Google Sheets users: File > Import > Upload. No macros, no add-ons. Every formula was checked in LibreOffice with 0 errors and matched an independent recompute (over 21,000 checks) across 7 test scenarios, including empty sheets, typo rows, bad dates and dates before and after the search. Honest note: this is a planning tool, not career, legal or financial advice. Salaries, equity and benefits are your own entries, so confirm final terms with each employer in writing.
