### 1/5 — Outdated

*2018-11-02, version 1.34.149.402*

This desktop version of Purple Briefcase is great, but the app is over two years old. Please update it!

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2018-10-10, version 1.34.149.402*

My friend recommended me this app because I was looking for a job at the time. So far I got accepted for two opportunities on this app and I think it is great for students. Most of the opportunities posted aren’t the ones on the bigger job searching apps and websites so I feel whoever uses the app gets a better chance of getting the job! I applied to one of my jobs and they called the next day! This app is for students specifically looking for jobs which I enjoy because it’s tough finding a job when you’re a student! The only part I hate is how every time I look up a job search, I can’t go back to the previous page because it refreshes completely and I have to input my search options again. Overall it’s great!

### 1/5 — Meh

*2017-05-01, version 1.34.149.402*

App is slow and nonresponsive, yet touchy exactly when you wouldn't want it to be. It's hard to search for jobs which is why I downloaded the app in the first place.
