← User guide · Search and filtering · Privacy notice

Keep track of interesting roles without creating an account. Your choices are stored only in this browser on this device. They are never uploaded to the project's database or included in its public downloads or API.

Save a role

Select the bookmark icon in a row's Your list column. Select it again to unsave. Choose the saved count below the directory description to view your shortlist.

Mark a role applied

Select the check icon beside the bookmark after you have applied on the original website. Select it again to unmark it. Choose the applied count to view these roles.

This is a reminder for you, not an application submission, confirmation from an employer, or application tracker with notes or documents. A role can be both saved and applied.

Hide and restore a role

Choose More actions → Hide. Hidden roles disappear from the main directory and your saved, applied, and new lists, but keep any saved or applied marks.

To undo this, choose the hidden count, then More actions → Restore on the role. Choose View all opportunities to return to normal browsing.

Search and filters still apply inside each list. If the saved count is above zero but the list looks empty, check your filters and hidden roles.

See what is new

On a return visit, a message highlights open roles whose First seen time is later than your previous visit. Hidden roles do not count. Choose View new opportunities to see them. The New column marks those rows.

  • On your first visit, there is no earlier visit to compare with, so no new-role count is shown.
  • Reloading or opening another tab keeps the same previous-visit time for comparison.
  • After 30 minutes without a directory load or local action, the next load starts a new visit.
  • The new-role count covers all open, non-hidden roles; filters can reduce the rows you see.
  • First-seen dates can be approximate. A newly discovered older posting may not count as new to you.

Lists are a convenience, not a durable record of applications. Keep any important application history separately. There is no account-based recovery or sync.

Clear your local data

Use your browser's site-data controls for techopportunities.eu to clear storage. This removes your saved, applied, and hidden lists, visit history, and theme choice. There is no undo or server copy, so keep any important application history elsewhere first.

If you are comfortable using browser developer tools, you can reset only lists and visit history by removing opportunities-directory-state from Local Storage. The theme uses the separate key opportunities-theme.

This cannot remove public job listings or change another visitor's browser. Hosting and analytics data are handled separately; see the privacy notice.
