How many jobs should you target per week?5-dimension score breakdown
Every job is scored across five dimensions: Skills Match, Experience Fit, Seniority Fit, Industry Fit, and Culture and Logistics. Each dimension is weighted based on your scoring preset.
"Why Not 100" gap explainer
See exactly which requirements pulled your score down and by how many points. Each gap shows the point cost and whether it's fixable before you apply.
How to know if you're qualified before applyingGhost & junk job filter
Stale postings, vague JDs, and low-effort listings are flagged automatically. Saves you from wasting time on jobs that were never real.
What to look for in job descriptionsScore weight customization
Control how much each scoring dimension counts toward the final score. Choose a preset (Tech, Marketing, Leadership, etc.) or fine-tune individual sliders. Weights always total 100.
Dealbreakers editor
Auto-reject commission-only, contract, or low-quality roles. Exclude specific companies, industries, or keywords. Jobs that hit a dealbreaker are flagged instantly.

How resume parsing worksAI-tailored resume per job

What Pro saves you
Time
Most people spend 2+ hours researching each job before applying. ShouldApply scores any listing in seconds, so you skip the ones that don't fit and focus your energy where it counts. That's hours back in your week, every week.
Money
One strong match beats 50 spray-and-pray applications. Pro helps you target roles where you're actually competitive, which means faster offers and less time unemployed. It's free during beta — and even after, it pays for itself the moment you land an interview you'd have otherwise missed.
Stress
Job searching is emotionally draining, especially when you're guessing whether you even qualify. ShouldApply gives you a clear score before you invest any energy. You'll apply with more confidence and face fewer dead-end rejections.
Questions? Covered.
The free tier gives you a real feel for how scoring works. You get 3 scores a day, full dimension breakdowns, and the Why Not 100 explainer. When you're ready for unlimited scores, resume tailoring, and interview prep, Pro is there.
Pro is unlimited everything — scores, searches, resume generation, cover letters, interview prep, and all advanced features. The Weekly Pass gives you a bigger daily allowance than Free (10 scores/day, 5 searches/day) for 7 days without the full Pro toolkit. It’s $5 for the week, no subscription. Great if you're actively searching but not ready to commit monthly.
Your data stays put. All your scored jobs, notes, and saved applications remain accessible on the free tier. You just lose access to Pro-only features like unlimited scores and resume generation.
Most job platforms tell you to apply. ShouldApply tells you whether you should. We score every job against your actual skills and experience, then show you exactly where you match and where you don't. No black box, no vague "recommended for you" labels.
No. Your resume data is used only to score jobs and generate tailored documents for you. We don't sell it, share it with recruiters, or use it for advertising. It's yours.
Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade at any time. Switching from monthly to annual prorates the difference. Weekly passes are standalone — buy one whenever you need a boost. Changes from annual to monthly take effect at the end of your current billing period.
