SeenDisJob: A Chrome Extension to Detect Duplicate Job Listings

Описание и применение

SeenDisJob – расширение Chrome, которое автоматически обнаруживает дублирующие объявления о работе, предупреждает пользователя и помогает избежать повторных заявок и лишних вкладок.

Задача

Job seekers often encounter the same job posting multiple times across different sites or as reposts, leading to wasted time and accidental duplicate applications.

Результат

SeenDisJob reduces time spent on duplicate job listings, prevents accidental repeat applications, and keeps tab sessions manageable without adding manual tracking workflow.

Рабочий процесс

• Install the extension by loading the unpacked source from GitHub via chrome://extensions
• Enable Developer mode and grant permission to read page content
• Open job listings across multiple sites; the extension detects job pages and extracts title and company
• The extension compares extracted data against local history using fuzzy matching
• If a duplicate is found, an in-page warning appears with context of previous encounter
• Users can close the tab, compare listings, or proceed as desired
• Dashboard and toolbar popup show seen jobs, duplicates caught, and recent activity

Доказательства

SeenDisJob is a Chrome extension built for job seekers. Its purpose is focused and specific: it watches the job listings you open in your browser and quietly warns you when the listing on your current tab appears to be a duplicate of one you have already encountered.

Источник

When you open a page that contains a job posting, the extension extracts the relevant information from the page—primarily the job title and the company name, using structured data embedded in the page where available.
