NextStep is a productivity tool for job seekers that turns job applications into actionable follow-ups. It tracks applications, prioritizes overdue follow-ups, and helps users send professional follow-up emails with one click.
Job seekers apply to multiple companies but often forget:
- where they applied
- application date
- follow-up deadlines
- current job status
This leads to missed opportunities and delayed follow-ups.
NextStep provides a simple dashboard where users can:
- store job application details in cloud database (Firebase Firestore)
- update job status (Applied / Interview / Offer / Rejected)
- get follow-up priority alerts (Overdue / Due Soon)
- generate a ready-to-send follow-up email and open it instantly in email client
For Software:
- Languages used: JavaScript
- Frameworks used: React (Vite)
- Libraries used: Tailwind CSS, React Router DOM, Firebase
- Tools used: GitHub, Vercel, Firebase Console, VS Code
- Add job applications with details (company, role, link, notes)
- Track job status (Applied / Interview / Rejected / Offer)
- Smart follow-up priority system:
