Hey everyone,

I'm happy to announce the 2.0 version of [https://first2apply.com/](https://first2apply.com/)

So far the most requested feature our users have been asking for is adding support for more job boards. Today this is possible thanks to a little help from LLMs.

How it works? Well the app will try to extract a list of jobs from the page you are navigating. If it finds one, then the URL will be checked every 30 minutes to see if there are any new jobs. Then it sends an email or desktop notification for the jobs that are new.

In this demo, I'm trying to skip Indeed and search jobs directly from ATS systems like Workday, Greenhouse, [Lever.co](http://Lever.co) etc.

In case you didn't know most jobs from LinkedIn, Indeed etc are actually sourced from ATS systems. That's why when you click on "apply" on a job it redirects you to one of those websites where you actually fill in the application.  
Turns out, Google actually indexes those pages directly so one could do a search on a specific ATS website and search for the keywords matching the required role like "Software Engineer".

Here is an example search you could use for it:

    site:boards.greenhouse.io united states intext:"apply" (intext:"Software Developer" OR intext:"Software Engineer")

The *intext:"apply"* part is needed to only search for pages where you have an apply button. Then the OR part is used if you want to search for multiple jobs matching your role.

And most importantly, configure Google to only show results from the last 24 hours. That way you can be sure you are amongst the first ones to apply for a job, increasing your chances of getting an interview.

The code is open source on [github](https://github.com/beastx-ro/first2apply). Looking forward to hear your feedback!
