What is an AI job board?
It is a job search that reads your profile before it shows you anything. Instead of returning every listing that contains your keyword in the order it was posted, the FirstResume board scores each opening against your skills, experience and education, then puts the roles you could realistically get at the top. You still search and filter like a normal board. The ranking is what changes.
Where do the listings come from?
From company job boards and career sites, which is where a role is posted first and where it is taken down when it is filled. Aggregators pick the same opening up second hand, often several times over, once from the employer and again from every agency that reposted it. Going to the source is what keeps the same job from appearing four times under three different titles.
Are there ghost jobs on the board?
We read company career pages rather than buying aggregator feeds, and a listing comes down when the employer takes it down, so the usual sources of a ghost job are cut off. A role can still sit open longer than the team is reading applications, which is why every listing carries its posted date and why the newest sit at the top of your matches.
How is this different from searching LinkedIn or Indeed?
Those boards rank by recency and by what has been paid to promote it, so the first page is whatever went up most recently rather than what suits you. They also carry heavy duplication from agency reposts. Here the ordering is your fit against the posting, the duplicates are collapsed, and every listing opens into the tools that write the application.
How does it decide which roles fit me?
It compares the requirements in the posting against what is in your profile: the skills you have listed, how long you have worked, your degree and field, and the level you said you are hiring-ready for. You see the match broken down rather than as a single mystery number, including which requirements you do not meet yet, so you can judge whether the gap matters.
Do I have to finish my profile before the board is useful?
You can search straight away, but the ranking is only as good as what it knows about you. The first pass takes a few minutes: your degree, your most recent roles, and the skills you would be happy to be questioned on in an interview. Everything you add after that sharpens the ordering, and you never have to type it again.
Can I still search for something the matching would not suggest?
Yes. The ranking is a default, not a wall. Search any title, open the filters, and look at roles above or below the level the profile suggests. Career changes and stretch applications are normal, and the compatibility read is more useful on those than on the safe ones because it tells you exactly what you would need to argue.
What happens after I save a job?
It moves onto your application board with the posting attached, so the details are still there in three weeks when a recruiter calls. From the same card you can generate a resume tailored to that description, a cover letter, a company brief and interview practice, all working from the listing rather than from anything you retype.
Is the AI job board free?
Yes. The free plan covers five job searches a month returning twenty roles each, with a compatibility score on every one and no card required. Premium and Max make searches and results unlimited and lift the cap on active applications, so the board becomes somewhere you work from daily rather than dip into when the limit resets.
