Restore and correct them, and record the Phase 0 work. - docs/architecture/current.md: verified system map (from archived SYSTEM_OVERVIEW, 9 corrections against code). - docs/research/competitors.md: sourced competitor analysis (from archived PRODUCT_RESEARCH, feature matrix corrected). - docs/decisions/ADR-002-job-application-model.md: the Job/JobApplication split. - docs/application-discovery-report.md, docs/implementation-roadmap.md, docs/phase-0-foundation-report.md, docs/career-workspace-branch-assessment.md. - Remove 10 zero-byte placeholder files that advertised content that never existed.

Jobjakt Product Vision
Overview
Jobjakt is a career management workspace designed to help people successfully navigate the modern job search.
The application combines job tracking, career management, AI assistance, and document generation into one connected experience.
The primary goal is to help users move from:
Finding opportunities
↓
Applying effectively
↓
Managing applications
↓
Improving their chances
↓
Securing employment
Long-Term Vision
Jobjakt should become the user's personal career operating system.
Instead of storing job applications in spreadsheets, CVs in random folders, and career information across multiple platforms, users maintain one central workspace.
The application understands:
- Their career history.
- Their skills.
- Their experience.
- Their goals.
- Their applications.
It then helps transform this information into useful career outputs.
Product Positioning
Jobjakt is not:
- A simple job board.
- A basic Kanban board.
- Only a CV generator.
- Only an AI writing assistant.
Jobjakt is:
A career workspace that helps users manage the entire job application lifecycle.
