My Applications
The applications assigned to you, the ones you follow, and the ones you have worked on.
Overview
My Applications sits in your sidebar and holds the applications you have a personal stake in. Three fixed tabs split them up: Assigned, Subscribed and Activity. The sidebar row opens Assigned.
Everything here is read-only on purpose. Status and Review live on the application itself, because those fields belong to the hiring team that owns the job.

Keyboard
1, 2 and 3 switch to Assigned, Subscribed and Activity. They work while the pointer is over the tab row or while something in it has focus, so they never fight with typing in the search box.
Mouse
- Click a tab to switch
- Click a row to open the application
- Search, Filter and Display options sit above the list
- Display options also holds Completed applications and the layout switch
Basics
What each tab holds
Assigned holds the applications assigned to you.
Subscribed holds the applications you follow. A subscription starts three ways: you created the application, you were assigned to it, or you pressed Subscribe to updates on it. Muting an application takes it out of this tab even while the subscription stays in place, and a mute on the application itself beats a broader subscription.
Activity is the widest of the three. It holds everything from the other two tabs plus every application you have personally worked on, whether or not you follow it now. Work an agent did on your behalf counts as yours. A candidate's own action does not put an application here, and neither does an automatic event such as an SLA breach.
The tabs are fixed. You cannot rename them, reorder them or add a fourth.
List and board
Display options switches between a list and a board.
The board has five columns, always in this order: Sourced, New, Active, Completed and Closed. The grouping is fixed, and cards do not drag. Moving a card between columns would write a status onto another team's job, so that move belongs on the application page instead.
A withdrawn application sits in Closed whatever its stored category says. Its card still shows the exact status the owning team gave it, with a Withdrawn marker beside it.
The list groups by Job, Assignee or Status category. Exact statuses are missing from that list on purpose: each team defines its own, so a personal view across teams cannot group by them.
Each tab starts with the columns that suit it. Assigned leaves Assignee out, because every row there is yours; turn it back on in Display options if you want it. Assigned sorts by how long a row has sat in its current status, oldest first. Subscribed and Activity sort by latest activity, newest first. A row with an empty value in the sort field goes last, whichever direction you sort in.
The list loads 25 rows at a time, and the board loads 25 cards per column.
Completed applications
Completed applications in Display options decides how far back finished applications reach: All, Past day, Past week, Past month or None. It starts at Past day.
The setting is page-wide, not per tab, and it follows you between devices. Past month is measured in your own time zone, so the cutoff lands where your calendar month does.
Search and filters
Search runs on the server across the whole tab, not only the rows on screen. Attia waits about a third of a second after you stop typing, so a typed word is one request rather than one per letter.
Filter narrows on Job, Status and Assignee. The options come from everything the tab admits, not from the rows currently loaded, so a filter you can pick is a filter that has matches somewhere.
When search or filters find nothing, Clear search and filters appears with the empty state.
The two banners
Older completed applications are hidden by your display settings appears when the completion window is holding rows back. Its Display options button opens the control that set it. The banner is independent of everything else, so it shows above an empty result too.
No matches in the applications loaded so far is the honest version of an empty search. It means Attia filled its row budget before it could prove the tab has nothing, so narrowing the search or the filters may still turn something up.
