You set up your profile — CV, target role and preferences — once. CareerPlan then matches you to relevant openings and can submit applications on your behalf, or you can apply yourself. Three ways to apply:
| Mode | What happens |
|---|---|
| Semiauto Apply we apply |
CareerPlan prepares the application and you approve it before it is sent. It prepares the roles it matches for you each day, and any role you pick yourself with Apply with CareerPlan on a job page. Each one waits in your Applications queue: you review the answers and the résumé (uploaded or generated by CareerPlan), approve, and CareerPlan submits it through the employer's system. |
| Auto Apply we apply |
When a match meets the threshold you set, CareerPlan submits the application automatically. No action is required from you. |
| On the source you apply |
Open the original posting and apply on the employer's site yourself. CareerPlan is not involved. |
In Semiauto Apply and Auto Apply, CareerPlan completes the application forms and any steps the employer's platform requires. Replies are collected in one place.
CareerPlan fills in and submits the employer's own application form on these platforms:
| Source | Type | Who uses it |
|---|---|---|
| Greenhouse | ATS | Thousands of tech companies — Stripe, Databricks, Canonical, Datadog… |
| Lever | ATS | Palantir, Mistral, Neon, GoHighLevel and others. |
| Ashby | ATS | YC & Series-A companies — Linear, Cursor, Replit, Perplexity… |
| Workday | ATS | Large enterprises — SpaceX, Waymo, Samsara, many universities. We create the employer account for you. |
| SmartRecruiters | ATS | OKX, Zscaler and similar companies. |
| Workable | ATS | Start-ups and mid-size employers worldwide. |
| iCIMS | ATS | Large employers — Dollar General, PepsiCo, DISH… |
| Oracle HCM | ATS | Large enterprises on Oracle's candidate portal — e.g. onsemi. |
| Eightfold | ATS | Enterprises and public bodies — e.g. the British Council. |
We also gather jobs from the sources below. For these, CareerPlan looks for the employer's own application form and applies there when it can reach it; when it can't, we tell you and give you the link to apply on the original posting.
| Source | Type | Who uses it |
|---|---|---|
| Zoho Recruit | ATS | Fintech & smaller employers the big boards skip — e.g. Deriv. |
| Teamtailor | ATS | European & Cyprus employers — e.g. Àlber Blanc, Polestar, Leaseweb. |
| Company career pages | Direct | Employers hiring straight from their own site — e.g. MetaQuotes. |
| Job boards | Boards | HN "Who is Hiring", RemoteOK, Jobicy, DevITjobs, CodingJobBoard. |
| Licensed aggregators | Aggregators | Adzuna, Reed, eFinancialCareers, RecruitIreland, jobs.ac.uk, EurAxess — broad country and niche coverage. |
New employer platforms are added over time. Each becomes active automatically, with no action required on your part.
For a few large job boards, CareerPlan shows you the match and links you to the original posting rather than applying automatically. For a role from one of those boards, you apply on the original site; for all other sources, CareerPlan submits the application.
How is this different from LinkedIn's "Open to Work"?
"Open to Work" puts a badge on your profile and hopes someone notices — you still scroll the feed,
apply yourself, and chase every reply. That's passive about being found and manual about getting
hired. CareerPlan is passive on both sides: recruiters can still find you, warm and AI-matched, and
separately we match you to real openings, apply on your behalf, and track every reply — so you're
wanted and hunted for at the same time, in the background. You're only pinged for a real interview.
Why do some jobs show "View on source" instead of a description?
For some roles, CareerPlan doesn't display the full description inside the app — you're linked to the original posting to read it there.
Why can't I find a job I saw yesterday?
CareerPlan checks job freshness regularly and removes postings that are no longer active. If a role was filled or withdrawn, it stops appearing in feeds and search.
