Tools
| Tool | Description | Behaviour |
|---|---|---|
| apply_kit | Everything needed to apply for a job. For "help me apply for this", "write my cover letter", "what should I say in my application?". Gives what the job asks for, the lines in the CV that prove each skill, what is missing, keywords to use if true, a cover letter outline and common application questions with how to answer them, so a tailored letter and answers can be written. Job Spotter never applies or sends anything. Nothing sent is stored. | Read-only |
| check_job_link | Check a job link someone pastes. For "is this job real?", "what does this one pay?" with a link. Reads the advert from the employer's job board (Greenhouse, Lever, SmartRecruiters, Ashby and most career pages) and gives the title, company, place, pay, when it was posted, whether it looks like a live, open job, visa sponsorship and a short summary. LinkedIn, Indeed and Glassdoor pages can't be read; the advert text can be pasted into the CV match instead. | Read-only |
| check_salary | What a job pays in a place. For "what does a nurse earn in Birmingham", "average salary for a data analyst in Austin", "is £35k good for a junior developer in London". Gives the typical yearly range (middle half of current adverts), the middle figure and the average advertised, from current job adverts. Advertised pay, not offers. | Read-only |
| check_visa_sponsor | Is this UK employer a licensed visa sponsor? For "does Deliveroo sponsor visas?", "can this company sponsor a Skilled Worker visa?". Looks the employer up in the UK Home Office register of licensed sponsors (workers), with its town and the visa routes it is licensed for, and the register date. A licence means the employer can sponsor; each job still has to qualify. Company names on the register are legal names, so try the legal name if the brand name is not found. For US jobs, the visa_sponsorship field on search results comes from the advert. Register data contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. | Read-only |
| company_lookup | Facts about an employer and its hiring. For "tell me about Monzo as an employer", "is Tesco hiring?", "how big is this company?". Gives what the company does, when it was founded, staff numbers, headquarters and website (from Wikidata), UK company records when available (Companies House, Open Government Licence), how many jobs it has open now with examples, and ready searches for people there. Staff reviews are not included. For US employers it adds what they offered on US work visa filings. | Read-only |
| compare_jobs | Compare jobs side by side. For "compare the first three", "which of these pays best?". Takes two to five ids from search results and gives each job's pay (and yearly equivalent), work type, job type, how new it is, direct employer or agency, visa sponsorship and ghost-job check, plus which is best on pay, newest and remote. | Read-only |
| connection_score | How relevant a connection is to your goal. For "should I connect with this person?", "is she worth messaging?". Scores how relevant a connection is to the user's goal, out of 100, from two profiles the user provides (it rates the fit with the goal, not the person), the same way every time: works where they want to work, recruiter or likely hiring manager for the goal, same school, same past employer, shared skills, nearby, more senior. Gives the reasons, a short verdict and an outline for a short note. Profiles can be pasted text (for example from LinkedIn's Save to PDF). Nothing sent is stored. | Read-only |
| cover_letter | Draft a cover letter and application answers. For "write my cover letter for this job" or "help me answer these application questions". Builds a first draft only from the person's own CV lines and the advert: the strongest matching achievements, the skills the job asks for in the CV's own words, an honest gap line, and draft answers to the form's questions. Anything only the person can know is left as a [bracketed] prompt. Job Spotter never applies or sends anything, and nothing sent is stored. | Read-only |
| employer_reply_rate | How often an employer replies to applications. For "do they actually reply?". From Job Spotter users who track their applications: the share of applications that got any answer (interview, offer or rejection) within the time tracked, and the usual wait. Shown only from 5 tracked applications, so nobody can be singled out. | Read-only |
| fair_hiring_check | Check an employer against the fair hiring badge. For "is this employer fair to applicants?". Four checks from what the employer does: shows pay in its adverts on Job Spotter, replies to tracked applications, hires through scored consent-first introductions, and (UK employers with 250 or more staff) reports its gender pay gap on time. Each check comes with its figures; the badge is earned when every check with data passes and at least two have data. Includes a badge image link. | Read-only |
| find_people | People worth contacting at a company. For "who should I contact at Monzo about data jobs?", "find the hiring manager". Gives the people who posted the company's hiring ads publicly (they asked applicants to get in touch) and ready LinkedIn and Google searches that open the person's own connections there, its recruiters, likely hiring managers for the role, people in the role (for a referral) and alumni of a school. Nothing is read from LinkedIn and nothing is gathered about anyone. | Read-only |
| get_job | Details for one job from a search result. For when the user asks about one of the results, for example "tell me more about the second one" or "what's the apply link for the Uber job?". Takes the id from a search_jobs result exactly as given; ids carry what is needed, so they keep working later. NHS Jobs and Teaching Vacancies results include the closing date. | Read-only |
| hiring_posts | Posts from people saying they're hiring. For "who's posting that they're hiring React developers?", "any startups hiring remote designers?". Public posts from people saying they're hiring, from Hacker News (the monthly Who is hiring? thread), Mastodon and Bluesky, newest first, each with a link to the post. The person posting is often the hiring manager. Also gives a ready search link for X. | Read-only |
| interview_practice | Practise an interview, one question at a time. For "practise an interview with me" or "how was that answer?". Send the role to get the first question; send the question and the person's answer to get a score out of 10 with what went well, one thing to fix and the next question. Scored by fixed rules, the same for everyone: structure (situation, task, action, result), what the person did themselves, a concrete result, length and the question's own words. It scores the answer, never the person, and nothing is stored. | Read-only |
| interview_prep | Interview questions and practice. For "help me prepare for my interview", "what will they ask a staff nurse?", "do a mock interview". Gives likely role questions, questions drawn from the advert, behavioural questions, good questions to ask them, tips for one-way video and AI interviews, and an order for a practice interview with timings. Takes a job id from a search, or the role and company. | Read-only |
| job_demand | What job seekers are searching for, by role and place. For "how many people are looking for care jobs in Leeds?" or "what are people searching for in Bristol?". Anonymous weekly counts of searches on Job Spotter by role words and place over the last 8 weeks, with the listings people found per search. Leave out what to get the most searched roles in a place (with a rising or falling trend), or where to get the places a role is searched most. For a role, it also gives the easiest places to find openings: where each search finds the most listings. A group is shown only when it holds 10 or more searches. | Read-only |
| jobs_for_me | The best current jobs for a CV. For "find jobs that fit my CV", "what jobs should I apply for?". Searches current jobs for the person's target roles (or past titles) and place, and ranks them by match score, with matched and missing skills for each. Nothing sent is stored. The score is a fixed formula, not an AI judgement; the person decides what to apply for. | Read-only |
| join_matching | Keep a job seeker's profile for introductions or offers (needs their email confirmation). Nothing is kept until the link is pressed. Candidates never pay. | Changes data |
| match_cv | How well a CV matches a job. For "how well do I match this job?", "should I apply?", "what's missing from my CV for this?". Scores a CV or profile against a job from a search (or pasted advert) out of 100, the same way every time: skills 45, role 20, experience 15, education 10, place 10. Gives matched and missing skills, strengths, gaps and keywords to add if true. Nothing sent is stored. The score is a fixed formula, not an AI judgement; the person decides what to apply for. | Read-only |
| networking_plan | Who to reach out to, from a CV. For "who should I network with?", "how do I get a job as a data scientist without applying cold?". From a CV or a few details and the role wanted, gives the kinds of people worth contacting in order (hiring managers at the employers hiring most for the role, recruiters who place it, alumni, former colleagues, people who made the same move, community organisers), with ready searches, the employers hiring most now and named people from public posts. Nothing sent is stored. | Read-only |
| post_job | Post a job or shift free (needs the employer's email confirmation). For small employers: posts a job or a single shift free. It goes live after the employer presses a link emailed to their work address (personal addresses get a quick check first), shows in Job Spotter's search, on its own page that Google for Jobs can list, and in alerts. Jobs close after 30 days, shifts when they end. | Changes data |
| referral_note | A ready note asking someone for a referral. For "write to Amy at Monzo asking for a referral". Gives a LinkedIn connection note under 300 characters and a longer email version that asks for a referral or a short chat, built from how they know each other and why the job fits. Nothing is sent or stored. | Read-only |
| search_jobs | Search current job listings. For requests like "find remote Python jobs", "marketing jobs in New York", "junior data analyst jobs posted this week", "senior software engineer jobs in London", "nurse jobs in Manchester". Job words go in what and the place in where. Everyday phrasing in what also works: level words (junior, senior), "remote", "in <city>" and "this week" are picked out. The say line credits listings from Remotive, Himalayas, Jobicy and Remote OK to their source. | Read-only |
| similar_jobs | Jobs like one from a search result. For "show me more like the second one" or "anything similar to that Tesco job?". Takes the id from a search result exactly as given. Returns jobs with a similar title in the same place, without the job itself. | Read-only |
| us_visa_salaries | What a US employer offered on work visa filings. For "what does Google pay software engineers?" or "how much does Infosys pay on H-1B?". Wages US employers offered on certified H-1B, H-1B1 and E-3 labour condition applications (US Department of Labor disclosure data): the number of filings, the median and typical range, and the most common job titles with their median offered wage. Offered wages on filings, a guide to pay at that employer; contact people named in the filings are left out. | Read-only |
| whats_hiring | What's hiring most in a place. For "who's hiring in Leeds?", "what jobs are in demand in Austin?", "which companies are hiring nurses in Manchester?". Gives the roles advertised most and the employers with the most open jobs. | Read-only |
| write_job_advert | Write a job advert and check the pay. For employers: "help me write an advert for a care assistant", "is £12 an hour enough?". Builds a clear advert from the title, duties, must-haves and pay, flags what puts applicants off (missing pay, too many must-haves, slang like "rockstar", age-coded or gendered wording, "native speaker") and compares the pay with current adverts for the role and place. Nothing is posted or stored; posting is free at jobspotter.pages.dev/employers. | Read-only |
