Editorial Policy

How tools are selected

We prioritize tools job seekers actually search for and use — popular resume builders, cover letter generators, application trackers, and job boards. Vendors cannot pay to be included, excluded, or ranked.

How reviews are produced

Every review is based on hands-on testing under our published methodology: real signups, tested free plans, export checks, screenshots, and pricing recorded on a specific date. Reviews carry a "last tested" date and are updated when tools change materially.

How scores are calculated

Each category uses a fixed, weighted rubric published on its category page. The same rubric is applied to every tool in that category, so scores are comparable. We do not use ratings we can't back with testing.

Affiliate links

Some outbound links may be affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you sign up — at no extra cost to you. Affiliate status never affects scores, rankings, or verdicts, and affiliate links are marked rel="sponsored". Articles containing them carry a disclosure at the top.

Corrections

Pricing and free plans change often. If something in a review is out of date or wrong, contact us — we retest and correct, and material corrections are noted on the page.
