TOOLS FOR YOUR JOB SEARCH
JobLogr
JobLogr is one of our favorite new resources for job seekers. It’s an AI-powered platform offering automated job search support, resume analysis, cover letters, interview prep, application tracking, and a regular supply of fresh job openings that align directly with your resume and application history. You can try it for free for 7 days. If you love it and want to upgrade, be sure and use promo code JOBJENNY for 20% off your monthly membership (regularly $20).
HeadshotPro
Thinking about updating your LinkedIn Profile photo, but wondering how big of a pain (or how expensive) it’ll be? Not a pain and not expensive if you’re up for a helping hand from generative AI. We’ve trialed a number of the AI headshot offerings out there. HeadshotPro stands out in the pack. And with a price ranging from $29-$49? This investment is worth a try.
FlexJobs
If you’re looking for a remote job, something with a more flexible schedule or even viable freelance work, FlexJobs is your job board. Not only is it the biggest game in town for telecommute options, the company hand-screens every job and company to make sure the roles they’re dishing up are high quality, professional and actually flexible (instead of just claiming to be).
EarnBetter
Now, this is slick. EarnBetter is a (free) AI job search assistant that automatically revises and reformats your resume, serves up personalized job matches, and will draft tailored cover letters based on the specifics of roles for which you apply. And, while the cover letters aren’t exactly brilliant (ahem, we can help you there), the resumes we’ve experimented with are decent. And the job matches are so helpful. Give it a try!
Next Level Negotiation
Alex Immel of Next Level Negotiation is our go-to expert for salary negotiation. He’s helped folks negotiate with big corporations like Amazon and TikTok, small startups, and everything in between. His clients have achieved an average of 20%+ in salary increases.
Alex’s passion for helping people win is evident in every interaction. If you’re a mid- to senior-level professional, we highly recommend Next Level Negotiation. And, snag a $50 discount by mentioning JobJenny during your intro call.
