A notification is a single message fired to one of your channels when a monitor matches a new job.

When you get one

Yoinka polls each tracked company’s careers page on a rotating schedule — typically every 10–20 minutes for top companies, every hour for the long tail. When a new listing passes a monitor’s filter:
  1. The job is written to your jobs feed.
  2. A notification is dispatched through every channel the monitor is assigned to.
  3. Typical end-to-end delay from posting → your inbox: under 30 minutes.

What’s in a notification

Every notification has:
  • Monitor name — which of your monitors caught this.
  • Job title + company (with logo, on rich clients).
  • Location.
  • Short blurb — the first ~200 characters of the description.
  • “Apply” — a deep link to the company’s application page. Click this to land where the extension autofills.

Notification history

The Notifications page keeps every notification for 90 days. Useful for:
  • Finding a job you saw earlier but didn’t apply to
  • Auditing whether a specific monitor is noisy or quiet
  • Resending through a different channel

Digest mode

If you get too many, switch a channel to Digest:
  • Immediate (default) — one notification per match.
  • Hourly digest — one message per hour summarising the matches.
  • Daily digest — once a day at a time you pick.
Set per-channel in Settings.

Stopping notifications

  • Pause a monitor (Monitors → the monitor → toggle).
  • Remove a channel from a monitor (edit monitor → channels).
  • Delete a channel (Channels → the channel → delete). All monitors using it stop emitting there.
