Keeping track of internship and job applications is unnecessarily difficult

Description

As a student, I apply to many internships, part-time jobs, and programs over time. Each application has different deadlines, requirements, and follow-up steps. After sending applications, it becomes hard to remember where I applied, when I applied, and whether I received a response. I currently try to manage this with notes or spreadsheets, but they require constant updates and provide no reminders or clear status tracking. It is easy to forget to follow up or miss important emails. Most existing tools are designed for recruiters or full-time professionals, not students who apply occasionally and need a lightweight way to stay organized.
