Checking All Your Closed Applications

Overview:

The "Check Closed Applications" feature in CareerTracker enables users to review all their closed job applications, including those that have been rejected or otherwise closed. Similar to the "Check Active Applications" feature, CareerTracker automatically retrieves data from multiple workday websites, allowing users to conveniently monitor the status of their closed applications from a single interface.

How to Access: To check your closed applications:

1. Navigate to the side menu and select the "Check Closed Applications" option.

2. CareerTracker will initiate a GET command to trigger the function on the Flask server responsible for retrieving closed applications.

Background Process: Behind the scenes, CareerTracker performs the following steps:

1. Authentication: CareerTracker securely authenticates with each user's account using the stored login credentials.

2. Data Retrieval: Once authenticated, CareerTracker retrieves the details of all closed job applications, including those that have been rejected or otherwise closed, from each workday website.

3. Database Storage: The total number of closed applications for each user is recorded and stored in the database for statistical analysis and reporting purposes.

Benefits:

• Comprehensive Overview: CareerTracker provides users with a comprehensive overview of their job search progress by including closed applications in the analysis.

• Insights: Users can gain insights into their job application history, including the number of closed applications and reasons for rejection.

• Decision Making: Access to data on closed applications helps users make informed decisions and refine their job search strategy.

Security: CareerTracker maintains the same level of security for closed applications as it does for active applications. All interactions with external websites are performed securely, and user credentials are stored securely within the user's own deployment of CareerTracker.

Next Steps: With CareerTracker's "Checking Closed Applications" feature, users can track not only their active applications but also their closed applications, providing them with a holistic view of their job search journey and empowering them to make informed decisions moving forward.
