Getting started
Remo scans job boards and company career pages, scores every role against your
preferences, and helps you tailor and track each application. Three things get you up
and running:
- Add your CV and profile. Paste your master résumé under
Settings → Resume / CV and fill in your
details under Personal info. Everything
Remo tailors is built from your real experience.
- Set your job preferences. Add your target roles, skills, work mode,
and salary under Job preferences so
scoring reflects what you actually want.
- Review your board. Remo keeps a fresh, ranked list of matching
roles on your Jobs page. Tailor a résumé and move
roles across your Applications board as you go.
Unlock the AI features by connecting a provider key under
Settings → Integrations, or pick a
Managed plan and Remo runs the AI for you.
Getting better search results
Your match scores are only as good as what Remo knows about you. A few habits sharpen
the ranking dramatically:
- Be specific in your preferences. Concrete target roles and a real
skills list beat vague ones — they're what each posting is scored against.
- Set work mode and salary. These filter and weight results, so roles
that don't fit your basics sink down the list.
- Use deal-breakers. Add terms that should rule a role out (e.g. a
stack you won't touch); they're matched as whole words so they don't over-trigger.
- Tune the weights. Under
Settings → Advanced search you can lead
with a preset — Balanced, Skills-first, Comp-first, or Stability — or set the weights
by hand. Remo re-scores your board when you save.
- Add roles Remo didn't scan. Paste any posting link under
Jobs → Add by URL and it's read onto your board and
scored like the rest.
On Advanced and up, an AI re-rank refines the rule-based scores with a
deeper read of each posting — useful when many roles score similarly.
Tailoring your résumé
From Resumes (or any role on your Applications
board) you can tailor a résumé to a specific posting two ways:
- Keyword tailoring (free). Reorders your bullets so the most
job-relevant lead, and shows an ATS gap report — which of the posting's keywords your
résumé already hits and which it's missing.
- AI tailoring. Rewrites your résumé in the posting's language,
grounded in your real experience — never inventing anything. Needs a provider key or
a Managed plan.
Open any résumé in the full editor to work the gaps in: missing
keywords show in grey and turn green the moment they appear in your résumé, and the
AI Tailor button revises toward the role (and works in keywords your
experience supports, explaining anything it can't). Download as PDF, Word, or Markdown;
custom templates are available on Basic and up.
Tailoring never fabricates. It reorganizes and rephrases what's
genuinely yours — add only the missing keywords you can truthfully claim.
Using the browser extension
The Remo extension fills out job applications for you — standard fields from your
profile, and screener questions from your Knowledge Base — so manual applications take
a fraction of the time.
- Install the Remo extension in your browser.
- Connect it to your account from the
Connect extension page — a one-time
handshake.
- Open a job application, click the Remo extension, and choose
Fill. Remo completes what it can and highlights every field it touched.
- Review and submit. Check the highlighted fields, finish anything
Remo left for you, and submit — Remo never submits on your behalf.
AI-drafted answers are an Advanced feature (with a 7-day free trial);
filling standard contact fields works on any plan. Questions Remo can't answer are
saved to your
Knowledge Base so you answer them
once and reuse them everywhere.
Email a job to your board
Found a role in your inbox or on your phone? Send it to Remo and it lands on your board
to review — even roles Remo didn't scan.
- Find your Remo address. It's shown under
Settings → Email to board.
- Forward or send a job link to that address from one of your
confirmed email addresses. Remo matches you by sender — there's no personal inbox to
set up.
- Approve it. The link lands in Jobs → Queue; approve it and
Remo reads the posting onto your board.
Email-to-board is on Basic and up. Forward from a work inbox or a
second address by adding and verifying it under Settings → Email to board.
Your Knowledge Base
The Knowledge Base is your personal library of
answers to the questions applications keep asking — "Why this company?", years of
experience, work authorization, and so on. Answer once, reuse everywhere.
-
Entries carry a status — Answered, Needs review,
or Draft — so you can see what still needs your input.
-
When the extension hits a question it can't confidently answer, it saves it here for
you to review; once answered, future applications fill it automatically.
Keep answers concise and reusable. Remo matches questions by meaning,
not exact wording, so one good answer covers many phrasings.
The Applications board
Your Applications board is a simple kanban that
tracks every role you're pursuing: Draft → Ready → Applied → Interview → Offer →
Rejected.
- Drag a card between columns as a role progresses.
-
Open a card to add notes, tailor a résumé for that role, auto-fill the application,
or open the interview-prep brief.
Tailoring a résumé moves a role to Ready automatically, so your board
reflects where each application really stands.
