This seems like a great idea (I had something similar built on a personal level using org-mode)! Luckily, I've just managed to find myself a position, but this would have seriously helped me.
Thanks! Yea this was my solution after trying a ton of different ways to keep track of applications I sent. I'm a compulsive note taker and try to prepare questions & answers for all the individual interviews. Made a mess of it using Evernote
