Key takeaways

  • RoleRank compares new openings with your résumé and experience and sends the most relevant ones as they are posted.
  • You can receive alerts by text, by email, or in your favorite AI; a personal AI such as Instinct or Muse is the natural fit.
  • You can also ask on demand, for example 'Any new jobs that fit my résumé?', and get an answer on why a role fits and what it may be missing.
  • Premium features, including bulk ranking and new matching jobs sent to you, are free during the beta.

Who it is for

Why is it so hard to look for a job while you still have one?

  • Most people who search for a new role are already working.

  • The usual routine is to open several sites, retype the same filters, skim dozens of listings that barely fit, and repeat it a few days…

  • RoleRank is built for that situation.

Most people who search for a new role are already working. That makes the search awkward. You have a full day of work, a limited amount of energy in the evening, and often a good reason not to be seen scrolling job boards during office hours.

The usual routine is to open several sites, retype the same filters, skim dozens of listings that barely fit, and repeat it a few days later. Good roles get posted and filled while you are in meetings. By the time you look, the best ones may have been up for a week.

RoleRank is built for that situation. It continuously compares new openings with your résumé and experience, so the opportunities most relevant to you can reach you before you have to go looking for them. The alert comes to you; you spend your time only on roles worth a closer look.

RoleRank reports and ranks. It does not apply for you, contact anyone, or act on its own, and it does not give career, legal or financial advice. Every decision stays with you.

Use cases

4 ways people use Job searching while employed: discreet alerts.

  1. Skip the scrolling

    1. You cannot afford to check job boards during the day

    Situation: you are an operations lead with back-to-back meetings. Checking job sites means doing it at night or squeezing it in at lunch, and you often forget.

    What the alert does: RoleRank texts you when a new role is posted that matches the strongest skills on your résumé, with an apply link. For example, a new Operations Manager opening shows up as a short message instead of something you have to hunt for.

    What you do next: read it when you have a spare minute, decide if it is worth your evening, and open the link only if it is.

  2. Be early

    2. You want to be early on a good posting

    Situation: strong roles often draw many applicants quickly, and a posting you find a week late may already be crowded or closed.

    What the alert does: RoleRank sends matches as soon as they are posted, so you hear about a fit while it is still new.

    What you do next: tailor your application the same evening, while the posting is fresh, instead of discovering it days later.

  3. Ask why it fits

    3. You are not sure a role really fits

    Situation: a title sounds right, but you cannot tell whether your background really lines up, and you do not want to spend an evening on a poor fit.

    What the alert does: you can ask RoleRank directly, for example 'Any new jobs that fit my résumé?' It answers with the roles that rank high for you, why they fit, and what they may be missing.

    What you do next: apply with a clear idea of your strengths and gaps, or skip it and save your time.

  4. Rank in bulk

    4. You have a pile of listings to sort through

    Situation: you have collected a handful of listings over a few weeks and cannot tell which deserve your effort.

    What the alert does: the free plan ranks jobs against your résumé whenever you ask. Premium adds bulk ranking, which is free during the beta, so you can rank many at once.

    What you do next: start with the best-ranked roles and leave the rest.
