Hi HN,<p>I built First2Apply, an open-source job board aggregator that helps users find and apply for jobs faster by pulling listings from multiple sources like LinkedIn, Indeed, Dice, and 10+ other job boards.<p>Why I built this:<p>When I was job hunting, I found it time-consuming to track jobs across multiple platforms. So I created a tool that centralizes job listings in one place and prioritizes speed — getting job alerts quickly can make a real difference in the hiring process.<p>How it works:
- scrapes jobs from major job boards
- diffs the list of new found jobs with the ones already "seen"
- (optionally) filters out jobs based on user input (using ChatGPT)
- sends an alert if there are any new jobs for the user to check out<p>First2Apply is built with Electron, Supabase, TypeScript, React, Tailwind, Shadcn. You can check out the code here: <a href="https://github.com/beastx-ro/first2apply">https://github.com/beastx-ro/first2apply</a><p>I’d love feedback on:
- features you think would make this tool more useful
- ways to improve scraping/integrations with job platforms
- any other ideas or contributions you’d like to see in an open-source job aggregator<p>Give it a try, and let me know what you think!
