    I don't think it does. Better is if it auto applies for the jobs.

    If I know the companies, I don't need you anymore, why don't you mark a list of companies you think the user would be interested in and fetch the jobs for them. Now that's cool.

      How does anyone decide which companies to apply to?

    The way to think about this is: what user (jobseeker) need does this solve, or make easier? What does the user currently do, and why is this better?

      Jobseeker tend to spend a lot of time finding companies and browsing through each companies website to find a position.

      What if you don’t have to go to each companies individual website. Just select names of all the companies you like or know. The tool gives you a list of all the current jobs the company has posted. In this case multiple companies details all in one excel file.

      Thus saving time on researching and rather focus on crafting your profile for that role.

        True but what about existing job boards? They also mean you don’t have to go to every company website. Is this approach better than that?

          You are right, job boards solve the aggregation problem. What they don’t solve is still you have to manually sift through hundreds of listings.

          Instead, the idea is to surface a small set of companies/jobs where you’re more likely to get a response.
