Motivation

As a VanHack user, I have experienced that to stay up to date with status of job applications, new Job and event I need to regularly keep checking the site or my email. Its quite tedius and sometimes impractical, like when I am at workplace. The goal of this extension is to put most common functionalities of the site (like Job listing, Job application, notification) just a click away.
