Jobscan Careers
Jobscan is a fast-growing and profitable startup in Pioneer Square, Seattle, Washington. We’re a tight-knit team that is passionate about making a positive social impact by helping people get back on their feet.
We embody the following values:
EMPATHY - EFFICIENCY - ENTREPRENEURSHIP - INTEGRITY - IMPACT - AGILITY - GESTALT - BAR RAISERS
Job seekers are underserved. We're here to build the best tools for them to level the playing field. When you apply for a job online, resume screening software (Applicant Tracking Systems, or ATS) stands between you and an interview. You need to know what the ATS is looking for. Jobscan does. Jobscan can boost your interview chances by analyzing your resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile and scoring your resume against the job description.
When we’re not working from our open concept office you can find us grabbing coffee, happy hour, shooting nerf guns, or exploring the Seattle startup scene around town.
We’re always growing our team and looking for individuals who want to make a real social impact at scale.
