Job hunting is exhausting. Not "hard day at work" exhausting. The kind that compounds over weeks. Jumping between LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, and a dozen other boards just to find roles worth applying to. Then spending hours tailoring your resume and cover letter for each one, all while waiting in silence.
I'm lazy by nature, so I leaned hard on AI tools that promised to do the heavy lifting. They didn't. They'd make up job titles I never held. Invent metrics I never hit. Write cover letters that sounded nothing like me, generic and weirdly optimistic in a way that felt dishonest. I spent more time correcting fabrications than I would have spent just writing the thing myself.
So I built something. For myself, first.
I wanted a tool that searched multiple job boards at once so I could stop tab-hopping. That scored each posting against my actual background, not some AI's guess at it. That generated a resume and cover letter using only what was real on my resume, without hallucinating credentials I didn't have.
The first working version took a few weeks. It wasn't polished, but it worked. I'd run a search, get scored results, pick the ones worth my time, and have application materials ready in under a minute. No invented metrics. No fabricated titles. Just an honest answer to whether I was actually a fit for a role.
When I showed it to a friend who was also searching, she wanted access immediately. That was the moment I realized this wasn't just a personal project.
So I rebuilt it properly. Expanded the job search pipeline to pull from LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, ZipRecruiter, Greenhouse, and Lever. Rewrote the scoring to grade on five dimensions: skills match, role complexity, years of experience, industry fit, and location proximity. Then launched it as EmployMi.
I know there are other tools that promise the same thing. The difference is EmployMi will not hallucinate, fabricate, or produce the kind of obvious AI slop that wastes your time. In a job search, quality beats quantity every time. I built this knowing that, and I'm not interested in using anything that works any other way.
If you're in the middle of a search right now, I built this for you. Not as someone trying to capture a market. As someone who was sitting exactly where you are and decided to build his way out.
