I have only gotten into using pivot tables in Excel or Google sheets in the last 7 years. Currently I am using Google sheets to track my job hunting. My workbook has several sheets, The main sheet is a database of my job hunting,

I generate several pivot tables to give me an idea of how things are going. For example, a count of applications with the status as the rows and the number of interviews as the columns. This let me determine my interview and response rate. I hope this is helpful.
