PERSONAL JOB SEARCH SUPPORT · Workflow idea

Spend less time searching and more time choosing the right opportunity.

Use a current resume and job preferences to prepare a short list of recent roles that may be a good fit. Keep the resume and shortlist private, show why each role was selected, and leave applications and any contact with employers to the job seeker.

  2. Use the approved resume privately

  3. Gather recent relevant listings

    Collect roles that fit the agreed search criteria and retain links to the original listings.

  4. Explain possible matches

    Prepare a short list with role details and clear reasons for each suggestion, marking missing or uncertain information.

  5. Leave applications and contact to the job seeker

    Have the person verify each listing and decide whether to apply; approve any application or employer message before it is sent.

Something to build on.

Keep in mind

A resume contains sensitive personal information, and job listings or match explanations may be incomplete or inaccurate. Use the resume only with the job seeker’s permission, limit access and retention, check each listing at its original source, and never apply or contact an employer on the person’s behalf without their explicit review and approval.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose search criteria and review timing

Set the roles, places, work preferences, and schedule the job seeker wants to use.

Protect resume and job-search information

Limit access to the resume and preferences, keep only what is necessary, and set a clear retention period.

Set shortlist size and match explanation

Choose how many opportunities to show and what evidence should support each suggested match.

Keep applications and outreach under personal control

Make clear that a person must verify every listing and approve the exact application or employer message before it leaves their control.
