The principle
Real experience, re-emphasized.
Most AI tools will happily invent metrics, jobs, and skills you don't have. Shortlisted refuses to.
No fabrication
We re-emphasize and re-word what's already in your resume and LinkedIn. Zero invented metrics, titles, or skills.
Surfaces transferable skills
Real experience that maps to the role gets pulled to the top — even from older or unrelated jobs.
Cover letter included
A grounded, personalized cover letter for the specific role, ready to review and send.
Track every application
Your dashboard saves every resume and cover letter you export, with the company, role, and date — and lets you mark each one Applied, Interviewing, Offer, or Rejected.
See it in action
Same experience. Sharper match.
