Hiring software for employers who can't afford another bad hire
Match the résumés you already have to the roles that actually need them.
A wrong hire doesn't show up for six weeks. Then it's the ramp time, the overtime that covered the gap, and the job posted again. Job For Me turns the applicant stack you already have into ranked, explainable fits — skills, work style, engagement, and day-one readiness — so you place people who stay and contribute.
Before: a pile of paper and a gut call you have to defend. After: a short list that explains itself.
Create your account and start Starter with a 7-day trial — nothing is charged until the trial ends. Compare plans. Job seeker? Take the free assessment.
Three steps from an applicant stack to people who fit
1. Define the role
Paste a job description, a link, or scan your whole careers site. We turn it into one canonical role with skills, tasks, knowledge — and the day-one bar you actually hire against.
2. Drop in the résumés
Upload the stack you already received — PDF, Word, dozens at a time. Each one becomes a profile. Invite applicants to be measured and an inferred read becomes high-signal.
3. Get ranked fits
A fit percentage with the reasons behind it, the day-one gaps, and the training pathway that closes them. Almost-ready people become actionable instead of dead ends.
A bad hire costs you weeks of ramp and a hole in the schedule.
The résumé tells you where someone worked. It doesn't tell you whether they can hold a tolerance under pressure, follow a procedure without being watched, or still be here next year. That part is measurable — and it's what we score on.
- Day-one readiness: who can contribute now, and who needs which weeks of training.
- Hard filters on commute, shift, and credentials — not suggestions.
- Skills confirmed against your own library, not keyword soup.
- Every fit shows its reasons in plain language you can defend to a supervisor.
Sample ranked fit
Olivia Park
Maintenance Technician · 6.2 miles · measured profile
- · Meets 4 of 5 day-one requirements.
- · Work style matches the autonomy and precision this role runs on.
- · Second shift matches stated availability.
Gap: hydraulics troubleshooting. Suggested pathway closes it in about 3 weeks — productive on day one everywhere else.
What it's worth
Reading résumés is the most expensive hour in your week. That's the hour we take back.
You pay for one thing: measured people. A measured person is someone whose profile you had scored against your role — ranked, with the day-one gap named. On the Starter plan that works out to under $17 per measured person and it drops on every plan above it. Roles, openings, résumés, matching and contact details are unlimited.
Your numbers
These start at typical figures — change any of them to yours. We do the arithmetic.
Starting figures are typical for a posted opening: around 50 applications per position, an eight-minute screening read, and a US recruiting wage plus employer overhead.
What that adds up to
- Résumés to read this month
- 300
- Hours of screening
- 40 hrs
- What those hours cost you
- $1,920
Job For Me scores that whole stack automatically and ranks it. You spend your hours on the shortlist instead of the pile — and the people who were nearly ready come with the gap named instead of getting binned.
The bigger number isn't the hours — it's the hire you don't have to redo. Replacing one wrong hire costs a meaningful share of that person's first-year pay in recruiting, training and lost output. Getting one placement right pays for a year of measuring.
This is built for a specific kind of employer
If you're filling seats at volume and the only question is how fast, this is the wrong tool — and we'd rather say so now. You're who we built it for if:
- You receive more applicants than you can honestly evaluate.
- You can say what someone must already be able to do on day one.
- You care which kind of person walks in, not just how fast the seat is filled.
- You've paid for a bad hire and never want to do it again.
Plans are metered on one plain thing: how many people you measure each month. Roles, openings, résumés, matching and candidate contact details are unlimited. Every seat carries a permission level, so only who you choose can publish a role or touch billing.
For individuals
The Job For Me assessment is free and always will be. Fifteen minutes gives you a profile you own — and it's what makes employer matching honest on both sides. Or browse jobs by career to see what the work is, what it pays, and which openings are live.
