Help / The Chrome extension

Use the extension on a job page

Score the posting you are reading, fill the application form in front of you, and read what the popup is telling you afterwards.

Two buttons matter on a job page: the score, and the fill.

Score the posting you are reading

1. Open the posting.
2. Open the popup and press Show my match score here. Accept the site permission in that click.
3. The badge appears on the page.

Where you have more than one resume, all of them are scored against that posting in one pass, ranked, and the best one is opened first. The document to send is named rather than guessed at.

The score is worked out on your computer, the same way the website does it. The job ad stays inside the extension, and the number comes back. Your resume does not leave the browser.

It can read job ads on Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, SmartRecruiters, Personio, employers' own careers pages and school careers portals. Most of these use a standard job ad format, and we have added special support for a few that do not.

Fill the application form

1. Open the application form itself, not the listing page.
2. Open the popup and press Fill this page.
3. Read every field before submitting.
4. Press the employer's own submit button.

The fill button needs Scan, Build and Apply, Pro Max, or a campus licence. Where the account does not have it, the popup says so and offers the pricing page.

What gets filled: your contact details, your work history, your tailored resume as an upload, and answers to form questions you have written before. What does not: consent boxes, and anything about work authorisation, visa status, citizenship, clearance, criminal record, disability, veteran status, ethnicity, gender or date of birth.

If a required field has no answer we can use, we leave it blank and mark it. That is on purpose. A visible gap costs you thirty seconds. A wrong answer that looks right can cost you the application.

Reading the popup

Eight blocks, top to bottom.

The plan check

When the check says yes, the extension remembers it for fifteen minutes, so filling six forms in a row is quick. With no internet at all, a yes is kept for one day, and the extension window says it was checked earlier. A no is never remembered, so an upgrade works straight away.

Boards it will refuse

LinkedIn is always blocked. The extension never runs there, and no field is filled in or sent, because automating that site could get your own account blocked. Workday, SuccessFactors, iCIMS and Taleo are left out too, because applying there needs your own login from the employer.

On those, use the copy screen described in apply by hand on a manual board.

If no score appears at all, work through when the extension looks blank.
