Would You Interested in a Service That Applies to Jobs for You


I know such services already exist but checking what HN crowd thinks of such a service since I am thinking of starting one myself

Edit:This would be a personalized service not just a job application service.Think updating your linkedln profile, posting content to make popular and be in the eye of recruiters ,writing personalized cover letters etc

The worst way to find a job, as a service. If your job-hunting strategy centers around LinkedIn and submitting as many applications as possible you have placed yourself at the lowest end of the candidate pool, and competition is most fierce at the low end.

No, would not use, and would not think much of a candidate who used such a service.

I would be interested in a list of people who use this sort of service, so that I can be sure I never hire any of them.

I used usemassive.com for awhile but eventually cancelled because i wasn't getting any follow ups.

Not with that grammar in the title. You apply for jobs.

This sounds like a terrible idea.
