TalentAid

Hey Product Hunt 👋

I built TalentAid because I know what it feels like to stare at a job portal at 11pm, wondering if you're doing something wrong.

A few years ago, I left academia to transition into tech. I thought the hard part was behind me. It wasn't. I spent weeks rewriting the same CV over and over, tailoring cover letters that disappeared into the void, and refreshing my inbox like it owed me money.

I got through it eventually. But then I watched my friends go through the exact same thing. Smart, talented people reduced to spreadsheets tracking hundreds of applications, questioning their worth after silence from companies they'd spent hours applying to, and this was even before AI started taking away jobs, or being used to filter applicants unfairly!

So I built TalentAid: an AI-powered job search assistant that handles the soul-crushing parts. The full vision is four core features:

1. Job Search that actually understands what you're looking for

2. CV Rewriting tailored to each role

3. Auto Apply to handle the repetitive grind

4. Interview Prep so you walk in confident

Right now, we're launching with Job Search. The other three are coming soon as we build and learn.

This is our first public launch, and I'd genuinely love your feedback. What's missing? What would make this actually useful for you or someone you know who's job hunting right now?

Thrilled to be a part of this project! The job market is in desperate need of a tool like this.

We’re incredibly excited to finally share our product with the community 💛
We hope you’ll enjoy the contextual filters and curated job matches, they’re designed to help you browse higher-quality, more relevant opportunities without the noise.

If you have any feedback or suggestions, we’d love to hear from you. We’re very open to learning what you need and how we can make this better!

I'm really excited that TalentAid is now live!! It has been an absolute pleasure to be part of the team that have put so much thought into building tools that make discovering the right opportunities feel simpler and more intentional.

This product was created to bridge the gap between the sophisticated hiring tools companies have and the limited support available for job seekers.

We’d love to hear your thoughts, suggestions, or feedback as we continue building toward our mission and making this even better for the community.

Gave this a try and it’s super smooth to use. Navigation is intuitive, and I appreciate how transparent the filtering and job matching logic is. Nice work.🎉🎉

Everything I've seen about TalentAid so far really resonates, so I'm super excited for this launch!

Job searching can be so overwhelming, especially when you’re making a career change. I transitioned a few years ago from law into digital marketing and remember how hard it was to even figure out where my skills fit in the new space.

A tool like TalentAid that actually matches skills and makes the whole process less overwhelming feels like exactly what’s been missing.

Excited to see how this helps people going forward and congrats on the launch!

The academia-to-tech transition story resonates. I went through a similar path (from professional sports to tech/startups) and the job search process was brutal - the "rewriting the same CV over and over" part especially.

Smart to launch with Job Search first and build toward Auto Apply. The sequencing makes sense - nail the matching before automating the application process. Otherwise you risk automating bad matches.

One question: how do you handle the "hidden job market" - roles that never get posted publicly but happen through referrals? That's often where the best positions are.
