An application's page
Every application has a page of its own (/applications/ID): a card on
the board and a row in Applications both open it.
What it shows
It reads first, top to bottom:
- its stage (a stepper), and whether it's archived;
- the role: location, work mode and employment first, then pay (in GBP first, with the original currency and rate beneath; bonus and equity), then the posting link, source and when you applied;
- the timeline: interview steps (when, format, with whom, notes) and what happened, in date order. "With whom" picks people from People, or takes a new name, which becomes a person (at the application's company) when the page is saved; reading, their names link to them;
- your notes;
- About the job: its postings, each laid out like an email (where it's from, when it was posted and closes, or last read, then headings, lists and links in its own box; Open ↗, Refresh, and Remove for all but the main one);
- people, with their email and phone to click (to write or call); emails, as threads (by Gmail's thread, or by subject), folded until opened, each message with its time; files sent;
- the company, folded until opened, and the change log;
- tags, then Import from link…, Archive… and Delete at the bottom.
Every section folds from its header, and stays as you left it.
Adding and editing
- Reading, the page shows no forms: "+ Add a person", "+ Add an email" and "+ Send a file" open theirs, and "+ Add a step", "+ Add an event" or "+ Add a note" start editing there.
- Edit turns the page into one form: change anything, move the stage, add or remove steps and timeline entries, then Save changes (⌘S) or Discard. Leaving with unsaved changes asks first.
- People, emails and files are saved as soon as they're added or taken off, in either mode.
