The Problem
You're not bad at job searching. The signal is just buried.
LinkedIn Easy Apply made it trivial to click. Ghost jobs made LinkedIn noise. Auto-rejection made the application itself pointless. Most of what you see isn't real, isn't a match, or both.
Before
What most job searches look like
- 300 applications, 4 interviews
- Ghost postings eating your time
- No idea why you got auto-rejected
- Resume generic, tailored to no one
- Sponsor hunt across 50 Chrome tabs
After
What it looks like with ShouldApply
- 30 applications, scored 75+, 6 interviews
- Ghost jobs flagged before you click
- Per-skill breakdown on every score
- One-click resume tailored to the posting
- H-1B sponsors filtered by approval rate
Inside the Pro tier
Six systems working together, not six features on a pricing page.
0-100 fit score
Every job you see has a single number: how well your resume matches the posting. Breaks down into skills, experience level, seniority, industry fit, and logistics.
"Why not 100" breakdown
For every deduction, you see exactly which requirement you're missing and how many points it cost. No more guessing why you got rejected.
Ghost job filtering
Additive scoring model flags stale postings, vague descriptions, and listings without salary. Keeps fake jobs out of your daily matches.
One-click resume tailoring
Paste a job URL or pick from the dashboard. The engine rewrites your resume to highlight matching keywords while keeping every line true to your actual experience.
Interview prep
Questions generated from the actual job description, ranked by likelihood. Covers behavioral, technical, and role-specific scenarios pulled from the posting.
H-1B intel built in
33,000 employers cross-referenced against DOL LCA records. Filter to sponsors only. See approval rates, top sponsored titles, and salary medians per company.

Frequently asked
The questions people ask before they click the button.
What exactly am I getting, and what does it cost?
The full Pro tier, free. Unlimited fit scores across 4 job boards, one-click resume tailoring for every posting, AI-generated cover letters in 4 tones, interview prep, daily match email, ghost-job filtering, and access to the entire 33,000-company H-1B sponsorship database. No card, no trial clock. When beta ends Pro will be $14/mo for new signups, and your access stays free.
Why is it free?
Because you're helping me build it. You'll hit rough edges, find bugs, and tell me what's missing. In return you keep Pro access for good. Fair trade.
What happens to my access after launch?
Nothing changes. That's the whole point. Every beta member keeps free Pro access after launch, when the price for everyone else becomes $14/mo.
How is this different from other job tools?
Most job boards show you listings. ShouldApply tells you which ones to actually apply to. The scoring engine reads your resume, pulls jobs from JSearch, Remotive, Adzuna, and Wellfound several times a day, cross-references each posting against your profile, and gives you a 0-100 fit score with a skill-by-skill breakdown of where you match and where you don't.
Do I need a resume to start?
No. You can start by entering your skills and target role. A resume unlocks the auto-tailoring and cover letter features, but the fit scoring works from your profile alone.
Can I leave anytime?
Yes. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to bill, so you can simply stop using it. Your data stays available if you come back.
Is my resume data private?
Yes. Your resume text is only used to score your own jobs. It's never shared, never sold, never used to train anyone else's model. You can delete it from settings anytime.
What about H-1B sponsorship?
The dashboard flags every employer that's filed an H-1B LCA, shows approval rates, and lets you filter to sponsors only. The scoring engine factors visa-related job-description language into its signals.
Free now. Or $14/mo later.
Your call.
Beta ends at launch. After that, new signups pay the launch price. Members who joined during beta keep Pro free.
