Stay organized with FTB Hustle’s powerful bookmarking and task management tools. Save opportunities for later, track your applications, and never miss a deadline.

​
Bookmarking Opportunities

Bookmarks allow you to save opportunities you’re interested in for quick access later. When you bookmark an opportunity, it’s automatically added to your tracker.

​
How to Bookmark

1

Find an opportunity

Browse opportunities in the feed or search for specific ones.
2

Click the bookmark icon

On any opportunity card, click the bookmark icon (🔖) in the action bar at the bottom.
  • Empty bookmark: Not saved
  • Filled yellow bookmark: Saved to your collection
3

Access bookmarked opportunities

View all your bookmarked opportunities in:
  • Your profile’s bookmarks section
  • The opportunity tracker dashboard
You must be logged in to bookmark opportunities. Bookmarking automatically adds the opportunity to your tracker with “Not Applied” status.

​
Bookmark Features

Automatic Tracking When you bookmark an opportunity, it’s added to your tracker with:
  • Opportunity title and type
  • Organization/organizer name
  • Cover image (if available)
  • Location information
  • Deadline (end date)
  • Default status: “Not Applied”
Quick Actions
  • Click the bookmark icon again to remove the bookmark
  • Removing a bookmark doesn’t remove it from your tracker (you can manage tracker items independently)
Bookmark opportunities as soon as you find them interesting, even if you’re not ready to apply yet. This prevents losing track of good opportunities.

  userId: text (references user)
  opportunityId: uuid (references opportunity)
  createdAt: timestamp
}
Constraints:
  • Unique combination of userId and opportunityId (one bookmark per opportunity per user)
  • Cascade delete when user or opportunity is deleted

​
Tasks Table

tasks {
  id: uuid (primary key)
  title: text (required)
  description: text (optional)
  opportunityLink: text (optional)
  completed: boolean (default: false)
  userId: text (references user)
  createdAt: timestamp
  updatedAt: timestamp
}

​
Best Practices

Bookmark Liberally

Don’t hesitate to bookmark opportunities. You can always unbookmark later if you change your mind.

Create Specific Tasks

Break down applications into specific, actionable tasks like “Research company”, “Draft cover letter”, “Request recommendation”.

Link Tasks to Opportunities

Always add the opportunity link when creating tasks. This saves time when you need to reference details.

Update Task Status

Mark tasks complete as you finish them. It provides motivation and helps track progress.

Add Detailed Notes

Use the description field to record important details, deadlines, or requirements.

Regular Cleanup

Delete completed tasks periodically to keep your list focused on current priorities.

​
Workflow Example

Here’s a typical workflow combining bookmarking and tasks:
1

Discover and bookmark

Find an interesting hackathon opportunity and bookmark it. It’s automatically added to your tracker with “Not Applied” status.
2

Create preparation tasks

Create tasks:
  • “Review hackathon requirements”
  • “Form team of 4 members”
  • “Brainstorm project ideas”
  • “Prepare pitch deck”
3

Complete tasks progressively

As you complete each task, mark it done. Update the task descriptions with notes or links.
4

Update tracker status

Once you submit your application, update the tracker status from “Not Applied” to “Applied” and record the application date.
5

Track outcome

When you hear back, update the status to “Shortlisted”, “Accepted”, or “Rejected” and add notes about the outcome.
