Jobscan

I was looking for my first position as a software developer and was having a really hard time getting any sort of initial callbacks or interviews. I found jobscan.co through Reddit and gave it a shot. My success rate for getting an initial interview tripled! In one month I had three interviews, and finally got an offer! Jobscan helped get me through the initial interview process. I can't recommend it enough!

I was unaware that there were even services like Jobscan provides that are available to use. I've been really impressed with the automation capabilities - the comparisons between job description and resume are almost immediate and the recommends listed in the results are extremely helpful.

I have only just signed up. I really don't know what value your service brings until I try it. While your site promotes one thing, do need the time to review. I would put this survey closer to the time of 20 minutes in.

I entered my linkedin profile and three job descriptions - then the only feedback I could see was for the stats - everything else was blurred out unless I joined with a paid subscription. What is the use of a free subscription if no insight at all is provided?

Amazed at how easy the Jobscan site it to use and the free trial provides a chance to use it before you buy it. I was amazed at the insight it provided to my resumes, that I always thought were well crafted and used the "right" words. Shortly after beginning to use Jobscan I began to see interview request come in and landed a job just a month later.

Jobscan was incredibly useful in helping me apply for a new job. I am relocating to a new city and applied for 3 jobs in the area. I used Jobscan for 2 of the job applications and got interviews and job offers for both! The only job I did not get an offer from was the one I did not use Jobscan with (because I didn't know about it at the time). My husband told me about the site after he took a mandatory course on finding civilian jobs after getting out of the ARMY. I also appreciated emails that gave tips for building your resume. Will definitely use this again in the future!

This was definitely an eye opener as to what it will take to get past the AI tech being used to weed out applicants. Very straightforward to use. One thing that I feel could be an improvement is once you get your score above 80% it would help to have additional advice on things keeping your score in the 80s.

I just spent three hours on your platform, converting my résumé to ATS and updating the content - THREE HOURS! - when I got a pop-up informing me that job scan is experiencing technical difficulties and cannot save my work & do I want to revert to the original? Are you effing kidding me – three hours I just wasted - all my work gone. Shame on jobscan.co! You better believe I'm going to find every platform containing your reviews and write About what an unreliable waste of time your product is. JOBSCAN IS A USELESS WASTE OF MONEY - unreliable & poorly designed - AVOID AT ALL COSTS - for ATS conversion use to another platform!

Jobscan has changed the way I approach job searching & resume editing. I feel much more informed about the process through using the tools as well as reading the articles. The only thing that gives me pause about the service is the pricing structure, so I hope that, like with the product itself, that that is being regularly re-evaluated and adjusted accordingly with the customers in mind.

This tool is useful, but there are some issues that are difficult to deal with. For the cost, it seems silly that the scanning tool cannot differentiate tenses. I will have the word "growth" or "grew" within the resume and it will not consider it a match unless the word "grow" is there. Also, the idea that one should have the exact job title as is used on the job description doesn't make much sense and that is also counted as points against an effective resume.

Of the 17 positions I have applied for using Jobscan, I have received rejection letters from 14, three are still outstanding. All these positions were positions I would be competitive for based upon my knowledge and experience. While my initial scores were in the mid-30s, my final scores ranged from 67 to a high of 86, the average being about 71. The AI selects irrelevant words that are required for the position but insignificant for the resume itself. In other words, it flags acronyms for associations and credentials required to even apply, not to set yourself apart from the other applicants. Interestingly, I applied for 15 jobs not using Jobscan and I received interviews from 5. I will not be renewing my subscription or recommending to others. Additionally, the example resumes look like they were pulled off the internet. They are definitely not in a format that would catch my attention as an employer.

You must use Jobscan! It was so helpful for getting my job and I'm so glad that I used it. Being able to get ahead on the ATS makes applying online worth it. And it really worked! My application was automatically accepted through the ATS and I ended up getting my new job after several rounds of interviews. So glad I heard about this amazing site!

Gives me a good idea of what might be missing. However not all the suggestions I get from Jobscan can be implemented in both the profile and the resumes as they simply don't match.
Anyway, it gives me a good overview and is helpful to further enhance both

All I have done is signed up. Your screen appears and 3 seconds later you ask me to evaluate. What should a user say about the experience on your website 3 seconds into it? It makes no sense to ask me upfront.

The ability to pinpoint exact skills and have an adept algorithm use actual job descriptions to compare several positions against my profile- definitely helps optimize my brand and chances of being viewed by my ideal company for my ideal job... that's amazing!

I just signed up for the service, I have nothing to go on.

Why are you asking if you should follow up with me to make sure I'm satisfied with the experience? You don't follow up with everyone?

Not digging the last question of whether or not to follow up regarding customer service. When I said no, it suddenly said that I'd miss out on other things besides being asked about my experience. Not cool.

There are so many strategies in getting a foot in the door to land an interview. The ATS systems are formidable. I landed several interviews and ultimately my new job using Jobscan, which I have no doubt was the difference in getting past the ATS systems. So easy to use and informative in the tips it provides to strengthen your resume. I highly recommend Jobscan, especially it a competitive market.
