+# Importing Job Applications from Simplify.jobs
+
+This guide explains how to import job application data from a CSV file exported from Simplify.jobs into OfferPlus.
+
+## Step 1: Export CSV from Simplify.jobs
+1. Log in to your Simplify.jobs account.
+2. Navigate to the section where you can export job applications.
+3. Export the data as a CSV file.
+
+## Step 2: Map CSV Columns to Database Fields
+Identify how the columns in the CSV file map to the fields in your Django models. Here is an example mapping:
+
+- **CSV Column: `Job Title`** -> **Model Field: `ApplicationRecord.position`**
+- **CSV Column: `Company Name`** -> **Model Field: `ApplicationRecord.company`**
+- **CSV Column: `Application Date`** -> **Model Field: `ApplicationRecord.applied_date`**
+- **CSV Column: `Status`** -> **Model Field: `ApplicationRecord.status`**
+
+## Step 3: Import CSV Data
+Create a script to read the CSV file and import the data into your Django models. Use Django's ORM to create or update records in your database.
+
+### Example Script
+```python
+import csv
+from django.utils import timezone
+from tracks.models import ApplicationRecord, Company
+
+# Path to the CSV file
+csv_file_path = 'path/to/your/simplify_jobs_export.csv'
+
+with open(csv_file_path, newline='') as csvfile:
+    reader = csv.DictReader(csvfile)
+    for row in reader:
+        # Get or create the company
+        company, _ = Company.objects.get_or_create(name=row['Company Name'])
+
+        # Create or update the application record
+        ApplicationRecord.objects.update_or_create(
+            position=row['Job Title'],
+            company=company,
+            defaults={
+                'applied_date': timezone.datetime.strptime(row['Application Date'], '%Y-%m-%d'),
+                'status': row['Status'],
+                'source': 'Simplify.jobs'
+            }
+        )
+```
+
+## Step 4: Run the Import Script
+1. Place the CSV file in a location accessible by your Django project.
+2. Run the script to import the data into your database.
+
+## Additional Notes
+- Ensure that the date format in the CSV matches the format expected by the script.
+- Modify the script as needed to accommodate any additional fields or custom logic specific to your application.
