Question 15

Duplicate job detection

Accepted Answer

When you add a job, Orbit checks if a similar one already exists in your pipeline.

How it works:

- You can choose to continue adding or view the existing job

Why it matters: Duplicate jobs create confusing activity histories and follow-up reminders. The detection prevents accidentally tracking the same opportunity twice.

This also works when saving jobs from the browser exten

Question 18

Managing 50+ applications without going crazy

Accepted Answer

Applying to lots of jobs is smart. Here's how to stay organized when your pipeline grows.

Use statuses religiously

Every job should have the correct status. This is the single most important thing. If a job hasn't responded in 3 weeks, it's still "Applied" — don't move it unless something changed.

Use priorities

Mark your top choices as High priority. These get special attention in your dashboard and reminders. Everything else stays Medium or Low.

Use tags
