Based on your feedback, I’ve implemented some major improvements to the Becomed.com website. I’ve added the option to add any application event at any time, without the predefined path of which event follows another event (e.g. after an interview you have a follow-up). The system now still recommends the next step or event in the application process, but allows you to add application events on your own terms.

I’ve also added the option to add application reminders. While application events record what already happened with the application (e.g. sent resume, participated in interview, sent follow-up, etc.), application reminders are your to-do list: what you still need to do in the future. You can record reminders like contacting the recuiter, following up on interviews, scheduling calls, meetings or lunches, or even sending flowers to the person who referred you to this job posting if you get the job.

These are major changes to the way the site works, and they’re all thanks to your feedback. Please keep your comments, suggestions and ideas coming! As you can see, I definitely take them to heart and work quickly to make them a reality.
