I’m not a founder. I’m a student who got tired.
Hey. I’m a CS student, and last semester I was hunting for a PFE internship. I’d open 20 tabs at a time, queue up a stack of applications, and tell myself this is the night I send ten of them.
Then reality: 90% of the forms wanted links. GitHub here, LinkedIn there, portfolio in a field three scrolls down. I’d fill half the form, realize I didn’t have my GitHub URL copied, tab back to GitHub, copy, tab back, paste, then do it again for LinkedIn, then again for my portfolio. Every single application. Back and forth, back and forth, like a very sad human clipboard.
Some nights I’d open an application, see the wall of link fields, and just… close the tab. Not because the job was bad. Because I was already tired, and the idea of copy-pasting the same three URLs for the fiftieth time that week felt heavier than it should.
One night, I think it was application number 62, I stopped mid-paste and thought: this is what a computer is supposed to do for me, not to me. So I closed the form, opened VSCode, and built EasyApply instead. It took a weekend. Filling out the next 40 applications took about 20 minutes.
I’m sharing it for free because I know exactly what it feels like to close a tab at 2am because a form asked for one link too many. If this saves you even one application from being abandoned, that’s a win.
