Career CRM Helps You Stay Organised When Job Searching Gets Messy
A free browser-based tool for tracking applications, tailored CVs, cover letters, recruiter conversations, interview preparation and follow-ups in one place.
Private by Design
No account, no subscription and no cloud database. Your information stays in your browser unless you choose to export it.
Current version: v7.6.2 · ZIP download includes the Career CRM app, README and release notes.
One local workspace for applications, documents, interview preparation and follow-ups.
Why I Built Career CRM
I built Career CRM while managing my own job search across tailored CVs, cover letters, recruiter conversations, application answers and interview preparation.
I wanted something simple enough to use every day, structured enough to stay useful after dozens of applications and private enough that sensitive career information did not need to sit inside another subscription platform.
Career CRM is free because the goal is straightforward: help people feel more organised, better prepared and less overwhelmed during a process that is often stressful enough already.

What Building Career CRM Demonstrates

AI workflow design
Designed a practical handoff between human judgement, AI assistance and structured data.

Private. Local. Always Free.
Career CRM stores its information locally in your browser. It does not require an account and it does not send your job-search data to a Career CRM cloud service.
Because the data is local, regular backups matter. Export a backup before changing browser, device or app version, then import it wherever you want to continue.
Download Career CRM
