Notion Staff Frontend Engineer 2 // every card, at a glance
The card tells you where things stand.
Nothing here is a control you have to open a panel to find. It's read straight off the card.
A day-counter when it goes quiet
Once an application has gone unanswered past the point worth noticing, its card carries a day-counter — days since the last contact — so a stalled thread stays visible instead of aging quietly at the bottom of a column.
Replies attach themselves
Connect your mail and a recruiter reply is tagged with what it says, attached to the application it belongs to, and walks the card forward for you.
How the inbox works →A note only you see
A contact's name, a red flag, the reason you applied — attach a private note to any card and it travels with it wherever it moves.
Search the board itself
Once it is long, filter by company or role right on the board — the same search that narrows the list and calendar views.
// nudges
It follows up before you have to remember to.
The same silence a card's day-counter shows also goes out as a nudge — over email, Telegram or push — so a stalled application doesn't just sit there. See what that looks like on the Notifications page.
// your pipeline
See where every application lands.
As cards move through the board, freehire rolls them into one funnel — how many are still in Preparing, sitting in Applied, in an active Interview loop, or turned into an Offer. Whatever settled moves to Closed: out of the active board, never erased.
// four ways to look at it
Board, List, Pipeline, Calendar.
Same applications, four tabs. Switch when the board isn't the shape you need right now.
Board
Drag a card through its stages by hand.
List
Every application, one row each, sorted and filtered.
Pipeline
The funnel below — the shape of the whole search.
Calendar
Anything with a date, an interview included.
// from the terminal
Or let a script keep the board current.
The freehire CLI drives the same board with one API key — save, apply, move a stage, leave a note — so your own agent can keep it current without a browser.

Frequently asked questions.
- How does a job end up on my board?
- Save it or apply to it from anywhere on freehire — the job page, search, or the browser extension — and it lands on your board as a tracked application. Nothing is added without you doing one of those two things first.
- What are the stages?
- Preparing, Applied, Interview and Offer, in that order — the four columns on the board. A settled application, whether it ended in an offer you accepted or one that did not work out, moves into Closed, which is out of the active board so it stops competing for your attention.
- Does it notice when an employer goes quiet?
- Yes. Once an application has gone unanswered past a point worth noticing, its card carries a day-counter — days since the last contact — so a stalled application stays visible instead of quietly aging at the bottom of a column.
- Can a reply move the card for me?
- Connect your mail through the freehire inbox and a recruiter reply is tagged with what it says, attached to the application it belongs to, and walks the card to its next stage automatically — you only intervene when it guesses wrong.
- Is the board the only view?
- No — the same applications also render as a List for scanning, a Pipeline funnel for the shape of your search, and a Calendar for anything with a date attached, like an interview.
- Can I track from the terminal?
- Yes. The freehire CLI drives the same board with one API key: `save` and `apply` add a job, `stage` moves it, and `note` attaches a private note — so a script or your own agent can keep the board current without a browser.
