Signed up for a free trial of premium but most of the features I wanted to try before I paid were locked out. Pity.

Tool is good and all. Does what it advertises. I've been using jobscan for a couple months. There was a UI update a couple months ago and it made my job finding process slower. They removed it a week or so later. Just recently, they added another UI update. Now, it loads the resume everytime I click "upload and rescan". Takes like 5 seconds for it to load. Although it's not a long time, it completely slows down my flow, especially when I apply to over 25 jobs a week. It is completely unnecessary update and I wish they would revert it back.

Gives good resume feedback but a little pricey

Jobscan, ATS check (free) is best of all the ATS checks available. Significantly better than enhancvPRO ($50/month). That is jobscan key seller. However 1. needs to be much more transparent about the assumptions of the ATS model used - more than one ATS model used by recruiters and ATS model continually is improved (likely faster than jobscan updated). 2. Many roles, ATS check is irrelevant or is custom built for organisation. Smaller organisation. Or fewer applicants. 3. Does not help with getting past the more important gatekeeper, recruitment system (e.g. Workable). For example, Workable is particularly awful as it drops part of your resume PDF, when it is sent. Most people do not realise this unless you have worked with workable. 4. No ability to add in your own cringe words group, culture-avoid words group. aka ability to remove amercian fluff words which in my country guarantee your resume gets ignored.
