Possible way to know if your job application is viewed by the company

Hi,

I am sharing one trick that will possibly let you know if your job application is viewed or not.

Disclaimer: Note that this is not 100% guaranteed but it helps to know the status of your application.

Step 1: Create a side project. Step 2: Add Google Analytics script in your project. Step 3: Deploy your project. Step 4: Add that side project in your resume with the deployed link. Step 5: Apply for the job and wait for few days. If you get a call from the HR, great. If not, check analytics dashboard and see if you have new visitors. Google analytics dashboard provides lots of metrics to understand the traffic.

I hope this helps the job seekers.

I ping a telegram bot when someone opens my portfolio site.

Also note that GA is disabled by default on browsers like firefox/safari.

Yeah, telegram bot is also a good idea. But I have seen traffic from Safari in my analytics dashboard.

Add a analytics tool in the resume link, and then share the newer resume link😉
