The JobShifu blog
Field guides for a smarter search: what actually gets resumes read, how hiring pipelines work from the inside, and what we are building and why.
JobShifu vs Teal vs Jobright vs Simplify, tested with one controlled resume and one job posting. One marked real skills missing and rewarded an invented one.
No tools, no model, no account. A twenty minute pass with a highlighter, and the one measurement that tells you which requirements are worth answering.

Comparison PagePricing, job sourcing, resume approach and autofill compared, with every price dated and every claim tied to a named source.
