Job Hunting Services (Online)
Looking for online job hunting services? Here's what exists, what it costs, and how to choose the right option for your situation.
Types of online job hunting services
The phrase "job hunting services" covers very different things. Here is what you can actually pay for online:
Staffing agencies (remote recruiters)
What they do: Recruiters who place candidates at companies that pay them to fill roles.
Cost to you: Free (employers pay the fee)
How it works:
- You submit your resume to their database
- They match you with open roles they are paid to fill
- They present you to hiring managers
Best for: You have an in-demand profile in their specialty niche
The catch: They work for employers, not you. If they do not have matching roles, you will not hear back.
Career coaching (online)
What they do: 1-on-1 virtual sessions for resume review, positioning, interview prep, and job search strategy.
Cost to you: $100-500 per hour
Best for: You are unclear on your target role, or struggling with interviews
The catch: They do NOT submit applications for you. You still do all the applying.
DIY automation tools
What they do: Browser extensions and basic cloud tools that auto-apply to jobs.
Cost to you: $20-50 per month
Best for: Tech-savvy users who already have a great resume
The catch: No resume help, browser must stay open, usually LinkedIn only.
