Question 1

What is Jobstrack.io?

Accepted Answer

Jobstrack.io is a real-time job alert platform. You tell us which companies, roles, and locations you care about, and we monitor those companies' career pages continuously. The moment a matching role goes live, you get an email with the job details and a direct link to apply.

Question 2

Why do I need job alerts? Can't I just check job boards?

Accepted Answer

You can, but by the time a role appears on aggregator sites like LinkedIn or Indeed, it may have already received hundreds of applications. Jobstrack.io monitors the career pages of the companies you track and notifies you within minutes of a new posting, so you can be among the first to apply. Early applicants consistently receive more recruiter attention.

Question 3

How is this different from setting up alerts on LinkedIn or Indeed?

Accepted Answer

Job boards rely on companies pushing listings to them, which introduces delays, sometimes hours, sometimes days. We monitor your tracked companies' career pages directly at the source. You get notified faster, and you avoid ghost listings that linger on aggregator sites long after they've been filled.

Question 4

What companies do you support?

Accepted Answer

We support 20,000+ companies worldwide, including top tech companies like Google, Meta, Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, Netflix, SpaceX, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Lovable, as well as many of the world's largest employers. Add the companies you're interested in, and we'll monitor their career pages for you. If a company isn't supported yet, you can request it and we'll work to add it.

Question 5

How do I get started?

Accepted Answer

Sign up, set your preferences (up to 10 roles, 10 locations, and 20 companies), and you're done. We start monitoring immediately and send you an email alert whenever a matching role goes live. There's nothing else to configure.

Question 6

How often do you check for new jobs?

Accepted Answer

We check company career pages continuously throughout the day. When a new role matching your preferences is posted, you'll receive an alert within minutes.

Question 7

What does an alert email look like?

Accepted Answer

Each alert includes the company name, job title, location, which of your role and location preferences it matched, and a direct link to apply. No clutter, no marketing, just the information you need to act fast.

Question 8

Will I get alerts for companies I'm not tracking?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If we find jobs at other companies that match your role and location preferences, we'll send you those as well. Think of it as a bonus: you set up your preferences for your dream companies, and we expand your reach automatically.

Question 9

Can I update my preferences after signing up?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. You can change your tracked companies, roles, and locations anytime from your dashboard. Updates take effect immediately.

Question 10

Why does applying early actually help?

Accepted Answer

Most hiring teams review applications in the order they arrive. Research shows that candidates who apply within the first 24 to 48 hours are significantly more likely to get an interview. Once a role has received hundreds of applications, later submissions often go unreviewed, regardless of the candidate's qualifications.

Question 11

How does Jobstrack.io help me in a market flooded with AI-generated applications?

Accepted Answer

Mass-apply tools that send AI-generated resumes and cover letters to hundreds of listings have made the hiring process noisier than ever. Recruiters are increasingly skeptical of generic applications. By alerting you the moment a role goes live, Jobstrack.io gives you time to submit a genuine, tailored application, which stands out in a sea of automated sameness. We automate the search so you can humanize the application.

Question 12

I'm targeting competitive companies (FAANG, AI labs, etc.). Will this help?

Accepted Answer

These are exactly the companies where timing matters most. Elite employers receive massive application volumes, and their recruiter teams often focus on the earliest batch of qualified applicants. Being notified within minutes of a role going live, rather than discovering it days later on a job board, can make a meaningful difference.

Question 13

How much does Jobstrack.io cost?

Accepted Answer

We offer two plans: Weekly at $9.99/week and Monthly at $19.99/month (50% savings compared to weekly billing). Both plans include all features and a one-week free trial.

Question 14

Is there a free trial?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every plan starts with a one-week free trial that includes full access to all premium features: real-time alerts, dashboard access, up to 10 roles, 10 locations, and 20 tracked companies. No restrictions during the trial.

Question 15

What happens after my free trial ends?

Accepted Answer

Your selected plan activates automatically at the end of the trial period. All your preferences and tracked companies are preserved. If you decide Jobstrack.io isn't for you, simply cancel before the trial ends and you won't be charged.

Question 16

Which plan should I choose, weekly or monthly?

Accepted Answer

If you're actively job searching and want the best value, the monthly plan saves you 50% compared to weekly billing. The weekly plan is a good fit if you want a shorter commitment or are testing the waters beyond the free trial. Both plans include identical features.

Question 17

What's included in each plan?

Accepted Answer

Both plans include identical features: up to 20 tracked companies, 10 role preferences, 10 location preferences, real-time email alerts, full dashboard access, bonus job matches from 20,000+ supported companies, and priority email support. The only difference is billing: $9.99/week or $19.99/month (50% savings).

Question 18

Can I cancel anytime?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Both plans are cancel-anytime with no commitments, no penalties, and no questions asked. You keep access until the end of your current billing period.

Question 19

Are there any long-term contracts?

Accepted Answer

No. We don't offer annual contracts or require long-term commitments. You pay weekly or monthly, and you can cancel whenever you want.

Question 20

Can I switch between the weekly and monthly plan?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can upgrade from the weekly plan to the monthly plan at any time from your dashboard.

Question 21

What happens to my data if I cancel?

Accepted Answer

Your preferences and account data are preserved. If you decide to come back later, everything will be right where you left it.

Question 22

Why does your pricing page say "Find your dream job and stop using us"?

Accepted Answer

Because we mean it. Our product succeeds when you succeed. We're not trying to keep you subscribed forever. We're trying to help you land the right job as fast as possible. That's why there are no annual contracts, no lock-ins, and no tricks. Find your job, cancel your plan, and go enjoy it.

Question 23

What data do you collect?

Accepted Answer

We collect your email address, role preferences, location preferences, and the companies you choose to track. We don't access your resume, cover letters, or any application materials. Those go directly to the company when you click the apply link.

Question 24

Do you share my data with employers or third parties?

Accepted Answer

No. Your data is used solely to deliver job alerts to you. We don't sell, share, or expose your information to employers, recruiters, or third-party services.

Question 25

How do I get help?

Accepted Answer

Email us at support@jobstrack.io. We offer priority email support to all subscribers.

Question 26

I want to track a company that isn't listed. Can you add it?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Submit a company request through your dashboard or email us. We actively work to expand our coverage and will notify you when the company is supported.

Question 27

I have a feature suggestion. Where do I send it?

Accepted Answer

We'd love to hear it. Email support@jobstrack.io with your idea.
