We live in a world where we can find listings at the click of a button, but this can often leave us feeling overwhelmed.<\/p>\n<p>There are many job searching engines to choose from and God only knows how big your competition is. Then after you apply to a few jobs, your email inbox gets flooded with generic, \u201cThanks for applying!\u201d emails, making it difficult to follow up.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/huntr-spread.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"949\" height=\"547\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-127330\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/huntr-map.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"947\" height=\"549\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-127331\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My point is, the whole ordeal has a way of being a huge, jumbled mess. Thankfully, this has been recognized and addressed in the form of <a href=\"http:\/\/huntr.co\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Huntr<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Huntr is self-described as \u201cthe ground control for your job search.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The platform is designed to keep your job hunt information all in one place and is perfect for visual organizers.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/huntr-2-1024x675.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"659\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-127333\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/huntr-1-1024x897.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"876\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-127334\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Much like Trello or Asana, Huntr lets you categorize your cards and tasks in a simplistic way. You can have columns dedicated to a job wish list, jobs you\u2019ve applied to, phone interviews, on-site interviews, etc. Users are also able to keep a to-do list in the platform that allows them to stay on track of tasks like \u201cedit cover letter for job at Twitter.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Huntr is a Chrome Extension and works in a simple series of steps: organizing your search, collecting jobs from across the web, and sharing your progress. With organizing your search, you can keep track of every detail of your job opportunities; from notes to dates to tasks to job descriptions to salaries to locations to company data and more.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Screenshot-2017-08-31-at-5.41.00-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1004\" height=\"287\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-127332\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Collecting jobs from across the web works by the Chrome Extension saving jobs from big sites, such as Indeed and LinkedIn, to small career pages. These are then available to be viewed in your dashboard.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, boards are able to be shared with anyone. This is beneficial if family and friends have job suggestions that meet what you\u2019re looking for.<\/p>\n<p>The tool is free to sign up for and you can go play with their <a href=\"https:\/\/app.huntr.co\/app\/boards\/589189b5448fe5e45f01256c\/board?demo=1\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">sample board<\/a> to get a feel for what Huntr can do. <\/p>\n<p><em>This story was first featured on our news site, <a href=\"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/tech-news\/huntr\/\" target=\"_blank\">The American Genius<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The headache of the job hunt may have just been alleviated by Huntr, a job search organization tool.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":248,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[6,17],"class_list":["post-238","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-career-advice","tag-adj","tag-tech"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/09\/huntr.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/238","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=238"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/238\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":249,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/238\/revisions\/249"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/248"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=238"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=238"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/adj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=238"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
