We Just Built the Rest of Your Job Search: Job Matches, Job Swipe, Benchmarks, Coaching & More (copy)

June 18, 2026 · 4 min read · Rod Trent

cnXFj We shipped a lot in one push — enough that "we added a feature" undersells it. The short version: Past the Bots now helps you for the whole arc of a job search, not just the résumé. You can find roles, see how you stack up, learn the skills you're missing, network your way in, and bring friends along. Recruiters get real ATS integrations, and career coaches get a console of their own.

Here's everything new, and why each piece earns its place.

Find jobs that actually fit — and a thumb-friendly way to browse them

Until now you brought us a job description. Now we bring you the jobs. The new Job matches page at /jobs scores live listings against your résumé with the same engine that powers the scanner — so the feed is ranked by what you'd genuinely clear, best match first. Each role shows the keywords you're missing for it, so applying is a decision, not a guess.

On a phone, tap Job Swipe and it turns into a full-screen, one-role-at-a-time deck. Swipe up with your thumb for the next job; drag right to save, left to skip. It's the fastest way to triage a morning's worth of openings from the couch. Save the ones worth a closer look, share the great ones, and flip on email alerts to get new matches the moment they land.

See where you actually stand

A score in a vacuum doesn't tell you much. Is a 78 good? Now you'll know. Every scan shows a "How you stack up" benchmark — your parse-health and job-match scores against everyone else checking for similar roles. Higher than 72% of résumés for marketing roles is the kind of feedback that tells you whether to keep polishing or hit apply. It's anonymous, aggregate, and built from real scans.

Close the gap, don't just see it

When a job wants a skill you don't have, "you're missing X" is only half-helpful. So when a missing keyword is a real, learnable skill — React, SQL, Tableau, a PMP cert — the match results now point you to a concrete course or certification to pick it up. Knowing the gap and knowing how to close it, in the same place.

Networking, because referrals beat the front door

The highest-yield channel in any job search isn't the apply button — it's a person. The new Networking & referrals page at /network drafts the message for you: a warm intro, a referral ask, a recruiter ping, or an informational-chat request — short, specific, and never pushy. Then a built-in contact tracker keeps everyone you've reached out to in one place, from "to reach" to "referred."

Give credits, get credits

Good tools spread by word of mouth, so we made it pay. Every account now has a referral code at /refer. When a friend joins with it, you both get credits — each one unlocks a premium AI action like a tailored résumé or cover letter. Share the link, help a friend get past the bots, and bank some credits doing it.

A console built for career coaches

Coaches, bootcamps, and outplacement teams have been running the toolkit for their clients one tab at a time. Now there's a home for it: the Coach plan adds a console at /coach to manage a whole roster — track each client from first scan to placed, run scans on their behalf, and watch the numbers move on one dashboard.

Recruiters: connect your ATS

The scanner already shows recruiters which strong candidates an ATS would wrongly filter out. Now you can run that on your real pipeline. Connect Greenhouse, Lever, or Ashby at /recruiter/integrations, pull a role's candidates, screen every résumé with our engine, and (on Greenhouse) write the verdict back as a note — surfacing the false-rejects before they slip away. Your API key is stored server-side and never shown again.

One throughline

Every one of these follows the same rule the rest of Past the Bots does: tell you the truth, in plain language, and never fake it. The benchmarks are real. The tailoring still refuses to invent experience. The job matches are scored, not sponsored.

Go poke around — start at /jobs, then try Job Swipe on your phone. And if a feature saves you an afternoon, send the /refer link to someone who needs it.
