FAQ

Fair questions. Straight answers.

Pricing, features, limits, and what to expect while JobSearchingSucks is still being built in public.

Pricing

Can I use JobSearchingSucks for free?

Yes. The free plan is designed to be useful on purpose, not just a fake trial. You can track up to 20 active applications and use basic analytics without paying.

What counts as an active application?

An active application is one you are still pursuing. Archived, rejected, withdrawn, or closed applications do not count against the active application limit.

When should I upgrade to Pro?

Upgrade only when unlimited applications, deeper analytics, and resume/source performance insights become worth it for your search.

Is there an annual plan?

Yes. Pro is planned at $59/year for people who want to save compared to monthly billing.

Features

What can I track?

You can track roles, companies, statuses, salary ranges, job links, notes, resume versions, sources, dates, and follow-up reminders.

Can I compare resume versions?

Yes. The goal is to help you connect resume versions to application outcomes so you can see what is actually getting callbacks.

Does it replace spreadsheets?

That is the idea. Spreadsheets work at first, but they get messy fast. JobSearchingSucks is built to organize the search around applications, resumes, outcomes, and reminders.

Product Status

Is everything finished yet?

No. JobSearchingSucks is being built in public. Core tracking comes first, with deeper analytics, automation, and resume intelligence planned over time.

Will the interface change?

Probably. The product is actively evolving, so screenshots, flows, and dashboards may improve as features ship.

Why build this?

Because job searching is already stressful, and most people are forced to manage it with scattered notes, emails, tabs, and spreadsheets.
