Resume Version Control and Submission History Log
Why This is an Opportunity
Developers have Git for version control; job seekers have a folder called 'Resumes_Final_v3_REAL_FINAL.' The problem is real and specific: multiple tailored versions, multiple submission channels, and no linkage between version and destination. The app needs file upload/storage, tagging per company and role, date logging, and search. When a recruiter calls, you type the company name and instantly see exactly which resume they have. Simple file management CRUD with search and filtering.
Key Pain Points
- •Having 12 resume files with names like 'Resume_Marketing_v2_final_NEW.pdf' and no idea which went where
- •A recruiter calls about a role and you can't remember which version of your resume or which accomplishments you highlighted
- •Accidentally sending a resume tailored for a data analyst role to a product manager position
- •No audit trail of when and where each application was submitted across LinkedIn, company sites, and job boards
- •Wanting to reuse a successful resume version for a similar role but not remembering which version got the interview
Original Discovery
Active job seekers maintain 5-15 tailored resume versions and completely lose track of which version they sent to which company. When a recruiter calls about a role they applied to weeks ago, they scramble to figure out what the recruiter is actually looking at. A version-controlled resume repository that logs every submission — which file, to which company, on what date, through which platform — with instant recall when a company name is searched, would eliminate this embarrassing and costly confusion.
