Case file: your job search
Everyone's cousin “knows a guy”. Now you actually do.
He reads 266,000+ job postings before you've had coffee.
He doesn't want equity. He doesn't call you a rockstar.
How it works
He reads all of it. Even the hobbies section. Especially the hobbies section. Then a few questions: jobs or internships, your passports, where you'd work, and anything he should know.
Company career pages, UN and NGO boards, VC portfolio job boards, places LinkedIn forgot existed. For each new person he builds his own list of where to look.
Only the jobs worth your time, with a straight answer on the visa. No 400-result search pages. No “Senior Rockstar Ninja (Unpaid)”.
You could. You'd also get forty emails a week about “Senior Synergy Lead (Remote*)”.
*Remote, as long as you live within 20 miles of the office.
A LinkedIn alert tells you a job exists. Your job guy tells you whether to bother.
Now that everyone has a ChatGPT cover letter, cover letters predict who gets a callback about half as well as they used to.2 Employers noticed.
So spend your hours on the part only you can do: the application. Your guy just knows where the doors are.
“Do they sponsor visas?”
Government sponsor registers. The posting's fine print. Which organisations move their staff around the world for a living. He'll tell you “unclear” before he'll make something up. Rare quality in a guy.
Sound Designer, Games
A game studio · Los Angeles · closes in 9 days
Your Wwise and foley work is the whole job description. The posting says they sponsor H-1B visas. In writing, which is rarer than it should be.

After your trial, if you don't keep him.
When you get the job, fire him. He'll be happy for you.
Questions people ask the guy
No. Recruiters get paid by the company. Your guy works for you, and he asks for $10, not 20% of your first year's salary.
No. That's how you end up in the pile of 2,000 identical AI applications. He finds the jobs. You write the applications. You're the one getting hired.
Any. He builds a new search for every person. He's been around longest in climate and sustainability, international development and the UN, and life sciences. In other fields he learns fast.
Yes. When you sign up, pick jobs, internships, or both. Picking one makes his search sharper. Internships come labelled as such, and he still checks the visa on every one.
He reads the posting's fine print, knows which organisations handle visas for their staff, and checks UK jobs against the government's register of licensed sponsors. Already in the US on an F-1 or an H-1B? Tell him, and he'll say which internships you can do on CPT/OPT, which jobs you could start on OPT, and where an H-1B transfer is worth asking about. When nothing says either way, he tells you “unclear” instead of guessing.
No. He's a guy, not an app with a “partners” page. He turns your CV into an anonymised profile and throws the CV away. He keeps your email to send you jobs. Your name and other contact details are only kept as one-way fingerprints, so he can recognise you, not read them.
Everyone starts on Pro, free for 7 days, no credit card required. Your first shortlist arrives as soon as he's done reading, then a fresh one every morning. The day before the trial ends he'll ask if you want to keep him: add a card and it's $10 a month, cancel anytime. Do nothing and you drop to the free weekly email.
He tells you. No padding the list with jobs you'd never apply to. On Pro, if two mornings in a row turn up nothing, he says so and suggests widening the search.
Because it's one per person, not per email address. He's not fooled by a second Gmail. He's a guy, but he's not that guy.
No. Every email has a private link to your account: every case file he's sent you, your search and your plan. Lose it, and he'll email you a new one at yourjobguy.com/link.
7 days free. No credit card required.
1. Tailored applications got a 5.75% interview rate vs 2.68% for generic ones, across 1.39 million tracked applications (Huntr, Q2 2025, as reported by jobstrack.io).
2. After an AI cover-letter tool launched on a large online jobs platform, the link between cover letters and callbacks fell by 51% (“Signaling in the Age of AI: Evidence from Cover Letters”, 2025).
