How to Avoid Applying to the Same Job Twice
One tracker and a quick search before you submit are how you avoid applying to the same job twice — check company and title before you send anything.
Let the board keep itself.
Erioun is your personal ATS: every application gets its own address, replies file themselves under the right role and the status moves — so the record stays current without you maintaining it. No auto-applying, no scraping, no selling your data.
