Voltigo - job searching / bulk applications

Intro

For longer period of time I was working on a project which would somehow speed up the job-searching / job-application process.

The end result is a tool that collects the job offers from configured sources, fetches the necessary companies data and let's You send high amount of job applications at once.

Originally i wanted to turn it into SASS but that's impossible, as there are to many business related law based issues.

Therefore I decided to go open source with it, and let people use it privately.

The project can be self hosted - it's free for personal usage.

README on Github contains more detailed information.

How this works (shortly)

  • create job service configuration (backend),
  • login (front),
    • prepare E-mail template,
    • go to Search page,
    • provide search criteria and start searching,
    • go make some coffe,
    • play some games,
    • slack more,
    • login back,
    • be lazy and select all found job offers - apply on them all,
    • don't care,
    • go sleep or whatever,
  • repeat the process untill You find the job,

End note

I'd still like to work on that tool, but for that I'd need to see that I can still get founds from it.

Personally I consider that it's not a time wasted, it's a knowledge gained, and cool tool to move onward whenever I'd need to.
