How ZAPZAP Works

From job posting to tailored CV in under 2 minutes. Here's exactly how it works.

1

Build Your Professional Profile

This is a one-time setup that takes about 30 minutes. The more comprehensive your profile, the better your tailored CVs will be.

What to Include:

  • Work Experience: Every role, with detailed descriptions of responsibilities and achievements. Include metrics wherever possible (revenue generated, costs saved, team size, etc.)
  • Education: All degrees, certifications, courses, and training programs. Include dates, institutions, and any honors or distinctions.
  • Skills: Technical skills, software proficiency, languages, soft skills, industry knowledge. Be comprehensive - you can always highlight specific skills later.
  • Achievements: Awards, publications, projects, presentations, volunteer work. Anything that demonstrates your capabilities.

Pro tip: Treat this like your "master CV" - include everything. ZAPZAP will intelligently select what's relevant for each application.

Paste Any Job URL

Found a job you want to apply for? Copy the URL and paste it into ZAPZAP. Works with any job board or company career page.

What Happens Next:

  • Job Analysis: Our AI extracts the job title, requirements, responsibilities, qualifications, and keywords from the posting.
  • Company Research: We research the company's values, culture, industry position, and typical hiring criteria.
  • ATS Detection: We identify which Applicant Tracking System the company uses and optimize formatting accordingly.
  • Keyword Matching: We map the job requirements to your experience and identify which aspects to emphasize.

Optional: Add application notes like "emphasize remote work experience" or "highlight project management skills" for additional customization.
