JobCtrl Guides

These guides explain the product choices behind JobCtrl in plain language. Each guide gives you the practical answer first, then links to the canonical product or architecture page for exact behavior and current limits.

For A More Private Job Search

• Local-first Job Search Automation explains what stays on your computer, what still uses the network, and how JobCtrl keeps long-running work visible and recoverable.
• Open-source Job Application Tracker shows how discovery, evidence, materials, applications, and outcomes become one inspectable local record instead of disconnected spreadsheet rows.
• Resume Tailoring Without Fabrication explains why a job description is context rather than candidate evidence, and how JobCtrl validates the resume it actually renders.

For Inspectable Automation

• Evidence-based Job Fit Scoring separates fit, confidence, and eligibility and shows how requirement evidence becomes a versioned decision.
• At-most-once Job Application Submission explains why ambiguous employer-facing work stops for verification instead of retrying blindly.
• Temporal Workflows In A Desktop App explains how local workflow history makes long-running work recoverable, cancelable, and visible.
