Reverse Recruiter | Job Application Assistant | Tech & GCC Job Search
Reverse Recruiter and Job Application Assistant with a recruiter's inside view. I've spent years on the hiring side, screening applicants and shortlisting for companies in the USA, UK, UAE and the Gulf. Now I run job searches for candidates, using what I learned about which applications get shortlisted and which get ignored. Most job seekers don't have a resume problem. They have a targeting, timing and follow-up problem. That's what I fix. What I handle for you - Targeted job search on LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, Bayt, GulfTalent, Naukrigulf, company career pages and niche boards - Applications submitted directly on company portals (Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, Taleo), not just Easy Apply - Resume tailored to each role's keywords, so it passes the ATS and reads well to a human recruiter - Custom cover letters and screening-question answers where required - Outreach to recruiters and hiring managers on your behalf, because a message to a real person beats one more file in the system - LinkedIn profile optimization so recruiters find you as well - A shared Google Sheet tracker: company, role, link, date, resume version, status and follow-up - Weekly progress report with what's working and what we're adjusting Why a former recruiter makes a difference I've used ATS systems like Greenhouse, Lever, Workable, Bullhorn and Zoho Recruit from the employer side. I know how recruiters search, filter and shortlist, and I write your applications for that process. I also tell you honestly if your target roles or salary don't match the market. Who I work with - Software, IT, Data, Cloud/DevOps and Cybersecurity professionals - Engineers (including oil & gas and energy) targeting the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and Iraq - Product, Project, Business Analyst, Marketing, Finance and Sales professionals - Career changers and professionals relocating to the USA, UK, Canada or the Gulf How it works 1. Intake call: target roles, locations, salary, must-haves and companies to avoid 2. Resume and LinkedIn review, fixed before a single application goes out 3. Daily targeted applications and outreach, all logged in your tracker 4. Weekly review: response rates, adjustments and interview prep support My standards - Quality over volume: I only apply where you're a genuine fit - I never invent or exaggerate experience on your resume - Your data stays confidential and is used only for your search Want to see the quality first? Start with a one-week trial. I'll send a sample of tailored applications and your tracker before you commit to more. Send me your target role and location, and I'll reply with how I'd run your search.
