LoopCV alternative: fewer, better applications for tech jobs
LoopCV automates a wide job search: it collects postings from job boards every day, applies for you and can email recruiters. It has a free plan. Orin is built for software engineers. It applies on the company’s own careers page with a resume and cover letter written for that job, and you approve each one.
