This Firefox addon scans job descriptions on Indeed and alerts users if specified keywords are found (e.g., TS/SCI, clearance, etc.). Most job descriptions are long, and it is frustrating to read through them, only to find a disqualifying keyword at the end. With this extension, if a relevant keyword is found in the job description, an overlay message will immediately appear at the top of the page, indicating the detected keyword specified by the applicant (whether they like or dislike it).
- Monitors job descriptions on Indeed in real-time.
- Highlights user-specified keywords (default keywords are
TS/SCI,clearance). - Allows customization of keywords stored in browser storage.
- Removes the overlay when no matching keywords are found.
- Clone or download this repository.
- Open Firefox and navigate to

- If a keyword is detected, an overlay will appear at the top of the page.

- The overlay dynamically updates when a new keyword is found.
- If no keywords are matched, the overlay is removed.
- Auto keyword scanning is triggered when clicking a new job card.
