Good to know
Do I need an account?
No. The file is yours to edit, copy and keep.
What's filled in when I export jobs?
Job details, links and your Trawle statuses. Dates, deadlines and contacts stay yours to enter, and missing salaries stay blank.
Can I add more jobs later?
Yes. Export the same layout to a new sheet, compare Trawle job ID, and append only the new rows.
Does it sync with Trawle?
No. Each download is a snapshot, so check the employer's posting before applying.
