Building JobLog: a Chrome extension that saves hours on job applications
I built JobLog because I got tired of filling out the same information every time I applied for a job. Whether it was Workday, Greenhouse, ICIMS, or another ATS, I kept entering the same work history, education, and personal details over and over again.
JobLog autofills repetitive application fields in one click, helping job seekers apply faster while reducing repetitive work.
The extension is already live in the Chrome Web Store, and I'm continuing to improve compatibility with more applicant tracking systems and application forms.
I'm looking for honest feedback:
Which ATS or job site do you use most?
What repetitive task annoys you the most during job applications?
What feature would make a tool like this indispensable for you?
Every suggestion helps shape the next version of JobLog. Thanks for taking a look!
The interesting opportunity isn't helping people submit more job applications—it's helping them submit applications they can trust are correct. I'd keep validating whether users adopt JobLog because it saves time or because accuracy and review before submission give them more confidence in every application.
Congrats on shipping. I like the direction of prioritizing accuracy over pure speed. With autofill tools, a single wrong field can easily destroy trust because users stop wondering "will this save me time?" and start wondering "what else did it fill incorrectly?" Getting people to trust the extension is probably the bigger challenge than making it faster.
I run independent product evaluations for early-stage SaaS. If you are looking for an external perspective, I can test JobLog across real ATS platforms as a first-time user, document every point where confidence drops or the workflow breaks, and deliver a professional walkthrough video with actionable UX findings. If that would be valuable, let me know.
Good luck with that, I like the privacy first products)
