Cruit is a Chrome extension that tracks coding challenge statuses for job seekers. It scrapes users' inboxes to automatically monitor challenges without users having to do so manually. Previous versions did not notify users of new challenges or upcoming deadlines, but the MVP2 version addresses these issues with notifications. User testing found checkboxes and reminders helped users stay organized and less stressed about challenge deadlines.
