👋 Hey Product Hunt! I'm Jules, a master's student at Columbia and the founder of Scoutify. A few months ago I was deep in the job search grind. Sending resume after resume. Hearing nothing back for weeks, if at all. It makes you feel powerless, like you're shouting into a void. I'd edit resumes again and again, left to wonder 'wtf is this all for'.
