As a frequent LinkedIn user, I often found myself struggling to keep track of my job applications. I was juggling multiple documents just to stay organized, and it felt like a hassle. One day, I had a lightbulb moment—what if LinkedIn had a feature to manage job applications right within the app?
Curious to see if others shared my frustration, I dove into research. To my surprise, I wasn’t alone—many users felt the same way. That’s when I knew I was onto something real.
So, I took the plunge and tackled the project as a solo UI/UX designer. From extensive user research and problem definition to ideation, wireframing, and prototype testing, I poured my heart into creating a solution that would make job hunting smoother for everyone.
Design a tool in LinkedIn that allows users to see an overview of their job application. Applicants can track and manage their job applications more efficiently than if they were documented separately.

I came up with a cool new feature for LinkedIn that I think job seekers will love! Imagine being able to track and manage all your job applications right within LinkedIn—no more juggling separate documents. With just a few filters, you can see the status of each application in one glance. Plus, you can review the type of application you sent and even manually update the details. It’s like having your job search dashboard, giving you a clear overview of where you stand.
