#12This is super-compelling.... if you can add a lightweight ATS on the other side. It is very hard for recruiters to remember all the people that they have interviewed. But if you give them that functionality, you have the potential to kill all the ATS out there by going from the interviewee side of things. Kind of like Github for interviews!

Do you have evidence or are you just being unnecessarily unkind?

#14I just made a spreadsheet I added to over time to track this type of stuff for myself. It is interesting to see the process in a graph [0]. Would be really interesting to see this data aggregated for industries or specific positions. [0] https://i.imgur.com/NnzXT6K.jpg

Wow that's a lot of applications. I am actually shocked. How come? Are you not getting the jobs or are you striving for the perfect position? Were all those applications hand crafter for each position?

I don't think it's an unfair assessment about potential or actual security. And it's a fair critique. Whether it's a legitimate concern based on this particular implementation is another matter, but they are correct in that work history is probably sensitive personal history, perhaps not secretive.

Most of the interviews came from younger tech firms, which were more lenient (and also willing to hire less experienced individuals due to budget constraints).
