My way to search for a job
it was my pain
While searching for a job I use 45+ Telegram channels to find new vacancies. It takes me 1-1,5 hours only to look through them and find something relevant. And then, you know, a huge amount of time is spent on applying.
I was sick of it and decided to optimise my time (I guess many products appeared this way). This is how the idea for this web app was born.
I didn’t sketch anything in Figma, since it’s a pretty small and simple app, and I wanted to entirely prompt it in Figma Make.
2 days of prompting
So I started with comprehensive prompt, describing target audience, the main goal of the app, it's features and functions. I also connected the Supabase in order to save and store my profile and job sources across devices, implement real backend APIs to actually fetch and analyze job postings from Telegram.
And after 2 days and 208 versions it was ready.
sooo, how it works?
✔️ Profile setting: uploaded my CV, portfolio and additional info about my working experience.
✔️ Link to the sources: attached the links to all Telegram channels.
✔️ Filters adjustment: what key words to look for in vacancies, time period, etc.
🤟 Et voilà — the results
Did it actually help?
I saved my search preferences, so there’s no need to fill all the steps every time again. Just click for update and change the time period if needed.
Now it takes me only 1-3 minutes instead of 1-1,5 hours to search for new vacancies through Telegram channels. Don't know how about you, but for me it's mind-blowing.
pitfalls i would rid off
I should've designed some frames and created at least a UI kit for the app before starting to vibe code. I guess it would have reduced the amount of UI bugs (there are still plenty of them).
Bug-fixing was the most annoying part, because I fixed something and at the same time some other element was ruined. Endless cycle. But I guess, like in real life and in real products.
But still, it was a great experience and it really saves me a lot of time in future.
