The only potential extra is if you want more career coaching beyond the Elite plan’s monthly session. Those run $75 per half-hour, which is competitive compared to independent coaches.
Tips for Getting the Most Value from JobScout
Whether you’re a job seeker or employer, using the platform well makes a huge difference. Here’s what we recommend:
For Job Seekers:
- Upload a complete profile — AI matching works best with full info
- Use the interview prep tools regularly — they catch those little things you might miss
- Set detailed job preferences — location, salary, company size, remote options
- Check the platform often — new jobs post daily, and early applications tend to do better
For Employers:
- Integrate JobScout with your current ATS to avoid double work
- Create screening questions so AI filters obvious mismatches
- Use the analytics dashboard to spot where quality candidates come from
- Train your hiring team on the collaboration tools — they only help if everyone uses them
Payment, Billing, and International Pricing
