How can I monitor job openings?


Is there a way to monitor job openings other than following the LinkedIn Page of the interested companies/checking job portals periodically/signing up for emails?

I want to know if there is any dashboard/table type solution/service that could be reviewed once in a while for job openings in a particular location.

You can use smart search queries specially for the title/keywords/companies you are interested in.

A sample search will look like this:

- `"python" "engineer" "infrastructure" site:jobs.lever.co`

- `"python" "engineer" "infrastructure" site:boards.greenhouse.io`

(and in the search tools, limit the results to Past week, etc)

Obviously it can only track companies who use tools like lever, greenhouse, etc.

This is a terrific project. Write a scraper to do this!

I suggest this having read another comment of yours (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31763001) Scrapers are fun projects and there are tons of resources online to assist.

A project like this is a great thing to discuss in an interview as well.
