What to know before you start

Upload your résumé inside your account and add preferred roles, location, pay and schedule. Put non-negotiables under Must-have conditions. Read the service terms and résumé privacy details before agreeing; they explain OpenAI processing and Robert’s review.

One review per account during the two-week offer. Cancelling or deleting a review does not restore the allowance. Accepted reviews remain free after the offer closes.

Results are delivered within 5 business days after Robert approves your request. We search connected employer sources, not every job on the internet. Listings may change or close. A match, interview or job is not guaranteed. Résumé rewriting is separate.
