Help & Documentation

Everything you need to know about using Jobzyl to supercharge your job search.

Getting Started

Jobzyl searches LinkedIn, Indeed, Google Jobs, Glassdoor, and ZipRecruiter in parallel and streams results to you in real-time. No account is required to start — just pick your keywords and location and hit search.

  1. Click "New search" in the top navigation, or click "Start searching" on the home page.
  2. Select keyword groups (e.g. "Frontend", "Data Science") or type custom keywords.
  3. Choose one or more locations — countries, cities, or "Remote".
  4. Click Search — results begin streaming in within a few seconds.
💡
You can search multiple keywords and locations at once. Jobzyl searches all combinations in parallel and deduplicates the results automatically.

Search Tips

Get the best results with these techniques:

  • Use specific titles: "Frontend Engineer" finds more relevant results than just "Developer".
  • Combine keywords: Add "React Developer" and "Next.js Engineer" together to cover more ground.
  • Multiple locations: Add "Germany", "Netherlands", "Remote" to search all at once.
  • Adjust days back: Increase to 60–90 days to find older but still-open roles.
  • Results per query: Lower this (e.g. 20) for faster results; raise it (50) for completeness.
  • Remote only: Toggle this to filter source sites to remote-first jobs before they arrive.
🔍
Use the keyword groups (like "AI/ML", "DevOps", "Data Science") to quickly add curated sets of relevant search terms — each group adds 4–8 related keywords at once.

Results & Filters

Once results load, use the filter bar above the job grid to narrow your view:

  • Search bar: Filters by title, company, or location in real-time.
  • Source filter: Show only LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, etc.
  • Job type: Full-time, Part-time, Contract, Internship.
  • Salary only: Show only jobs that list a salary range.
  • Remote only: Filter to remote-friendly roles in the results.
  • Sort: Sort by date, salary, relevance score, or CV match score.

The salary insights panel appears at the top of results when salary data is available. It shows the median, min, max, and a histogram — click to expand or collapse it.

Export CSV: Click the export button to download all filtered results as a CSV file with 19 columns, ready for Excel or Google Sheets.

Tracking Applications

Click the bookmark icon on any job card to track it. Tracked jobs move through a pipeline:

SavedAppliedInterviewOfferRejected
  • Click the status badge on a tracked job to change its stage.
  • Open the Tracked panel (the bookmark icon in the results bar) to see all tracked jobs filtered by status.
  • Open Kanban board (the grid icon) for a column view of all tracked jobs by status.
  • Add notes, applied date, and follow-up date inside the job detail panel once tracked.
💾
Tracked jobs are saved in your browser automatically. Sign in to sync them across all your devices and never lose your application history.

Resume Matcher

The Resume Matcher compares your CV against a job description and gives you an ATS match score.

  1. Open the Resume Matcher from the navbar or the "Resume" link.
  2. Paste your resume text into the left panel.
  3. Paste the job description into the right panel.
  4. The score and missing keywords appear instantly — all processing happens in your browser, no data is sent anywhere.

You can also upload your resume once (via the upload icon in the results bar), and every job card will show a CV match percentage badge based on keyword overlap with the job description.

🔒
Resume analysis is completely private. All processing happens on your device — your resume is never sent to external services.

Job Alerts

Job alerts notify you when new results matching your criteria are found during a search.

  1. Click the bell icon in the top nav to open Alerts.
  2. Create an alert with a name and keywords to watch for.
  3. Toggle the alert on. When you next run a search, Jobzyl checks new results against your alerts.
  4. If matching new jobs are found, a browser notification is shown (you will be asked for notification permission on first match).
🔔
Alerts fire during active search sessions only — Jobzyl does not run background processes. To check for new jobs, run a new search.

Jobzyl works fully without an account. Sign in to unlock cloud sync:

  • Tracked jobs synced across all your devices.
