Dashboard
The Dashboard is the landing page after sign-in (also reachable from Dashboard in the sidebar). It's a single-screen "what should I look at first today?" view that pulls signals from across the app, so you don't have to open Tracker, Find jobs, and Tailored in turn just to see whether anything needs your attention.
The page is laid out in three zones, top to bottom: Needs Attention at the top, then a two-column row with Getting Started on the left and Tracker Pipeline on the right, then the Calendar at the bottom.
Needs Attention
A short banner that surfaces stale tracked jobs the app thinks you should act on. Three categories, all driven by simple time thresholds against your tracker timestamps:
| Category | Trigger | Suggestion |
|---|---|---|
| Stale applied | Job sitting in applied for over 10 days | No response in a while, consider a follow-up |
| Stale waiting | Job sitting in waiting for over 10 days | Stuck post-interview, time to nudge |
| Stale tracked | Job sitting in tracked for over 7 days | Saved a while ago, apply or untrack |
Each category renders as a clickable pill that jumps you to the Tracker filtered by that status, so you land directly on the jobs that need a decision. The header shows a total count next to the title (e.g. "Needs Attention 4 items"). When nothing's stale the entire banner collapses to a single "All caught up" line.
Getting Started
A 6-step setup checklist that walks new accounts through the full Jobiz loop. Steps are computed from real account state, not local checkboxes, so completing the action anywhere in the app ticks the box automatically. The completed counter (N/6) sits in the header.
| # | Step | Done when |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Upload your resume | You've saved a resume in Resumes (uploaded or filled manually) |
| 2 | Run AI Analysis on your resume | You've run Analyze on your resume at least once |
| 3 | Run a job search | You've run at least one search with a job title in Find jobs |
| 4 | Extract with AI | You've run at least one AI Extraction on jobs in the Find jobs table |
| 5 | Tailor your application | You've generated at least one tailored resume or cover letter |
| 6 | Set up an auto search | You've created at least one auto search |
The next undone step is highlighted in primary color with a forward arrow, and clicking it jumps to the relevant page (your default resume for the first two steps, Find jobs for the next three, Auto searches for the last). Completed steps are greyed out and crossed out; you can't unclick them. Auto searches are on every plan, so every step can be completed on Free.
Tracker Pipeline
A bar chart of how many jobs you have in each of the 6 forward Tracker stages: Tracked, Applied, Interviewing, Waiting, Offer, Accepted. Rejected and Withdrawn aren't shown here (they're closed paths and would skew the visualization).
Each row shows: a colored dot, the stage label, a horizontal bar with the count baked into it, and the percentage of your total tracker volume on the right. The bars are color-coded per stage to match the rest of the app (slate / blue / violet / amber / cyan / emerald). The header shows the total count (e.g. "Tracker Pipeline 32 total").
If you have zero tracked jobs the chart is replaced by a "No tracked jobs yet" empty state. To drill into a specific stage, open the Tracker page and filter by status there.
The summary is useful for spotting bottlenecks: lots of jobs in Tracked but few in Applied means you're hesitating to apply; lots in Waiting means it's time to send follow-ups; lots in Interviewing without movement may suggest the process is dragging.
Calendar
A rolling 14-day window of forward-looking follow-ups, starting from today and split into two columns of 7 days each on desktop (stacked as a single chronological list on mobile). The header shows the date range covered (e.g. "May 4 – May 17") and a next button lets you scroll forward through later 14-day windows in case you've scheduled something far ahead. Once you've moved forward, a Today button appears so you can jump back to the current window.
The Calendar surfaces follow-ups you've set on tracked jobs (see Tracker). Each event shows on its scheduled day as a card with the company name, a Follow-up badge, and the job title. If you set a specific time on the follow-up, it's shown next to the title in 12-hour format (e.g. "2:30 PM"); otherwise just the date is shown.
Weekend days are visually distinguished (subtle background) so you can quickly tell whether a follow-up lands on a workday. Clicking an event card navigates to that job in the Tracker. When a day has more than two events, a +N more link opens a day-detail dialog listing every event for that day with full notes, the company, and a click-through to the job in the Tracker.
The Calendar is purely a viewer: to add or change a follow-up, edit the job in the Tracker and the change appears on the Dashboard within a few seconds.
Summary
Use the Dashboard as a morning check-in: the Needs Attention banner tells you what's stale, Calendar tells you what's coming up, Tracker Pipeline tells you where you stand overall, and Getting Started is your roadmap until you've explored every corner of the product. Once setup is done, that card disappears in spirit (all checks are green) and the Dashboard becomes a two-zone page focused on day-to-day pipeline management.
