Hi, I recently got laid off from my current role, and I don’t have a lot of time left to find another job. Find jobs that fit my work experience and applying to them takes a lot of time away from prepping for interviews. So I was thinking of hiring some 3rd party company that applies for jobs on your behalf based on the criteria you provide them. However, I am not familiar with these types of company and don’t know which ones are legit and which are just taking your money and wasting it and giving back nothing in return. If anyone knows of a company that they think is legit and doesn’t cost way too much, that would be helpful. I’ve read about some that also customize your resume to fit the role before applying, although I am not sure if this is a good or a bad thing. I live in the US and would prefer US based company but if there’s a legit non US company, I am open to looking into them as well.
My two cents: In the before times, this would have seemed like something more suited to a virtual personal assistant kind of service (like getfriday dot com). Though searches reveal a lot of AI tools that do exactly what you are asking for (but it’s AI).
