Subpar

Search function is terrible, canโ€™t view all jobs.

Doesnโ€™t work well

It just simply takes me from the main screen to my school career center but I canโ€™t do much from there.

Two interviews so far!

Two may not seem like for some, for me, it is! Summer internship here I come!

It crushes all the time

I am a student at UT Austin. My device is iPhone XS Max. Every time I open the app and tap the option with my school name, the app will crush immediately and close itself. What happen??!!!! Itโ€™s been more than 6 months. No developer from your company can fix it??

Canโ€™t upload resume and apply.

Uploaded resume to documents. It shows them. โ€˜No documents here.โ€™

Response from developer

Great news โ€“ย with our latest update, the app will show you all of your documents and clearly indicate which ones require approval from your Career Center prior to being used in an application. We hope this resolves the issue and that you have a great experience with the app going forward. Thank you for your feedback!

I can't search for jobs on a job search app?

Can't believe you guys launched a job search app with a broken search bar. No matter what keyword(s) I use, the search results never load. It's not an internet issue โ€” all of my other apps/web browsers function, and your app loads the "Jobs For You" section just fine (which actually looks and functions great, but I'm helping a friend look for positions outside of my field.)
Also, the account info setup is terribly clunky. I thought of changing my preferences temporarily so that I could browse for my friend on the Jobs for You tab until this gets fixed, but navigating that section is ridiculous. The design is outdated, the text is jumbled... the whole thing is an eyesore.

UPDATE: We have released a fix for the search bar issue. Best of luck in your job search! Please note that our app is designed for specifically for you and your Career Services office. Our goal is to bring you personalized results and your Career Services office may not approve certain changes to your academic or other profile information.

Still some issues

I like the app and its potential however, it is not fully functional. Here are the issues I have faced:

- Toolbar/Search option: never works, the results never load.
- Toolbar/More option: the notifications are not working, which means when you tap the notification nothing happens and if you slide it to the left you see the remove option which does not work either.
- Toolbar/More section: first and last name for some reason donโ€™t fully appear. They appear half.
- Toolbar/More/Edit Profile: the page appears to be oversized for the dimensions of the phone

Thank you for the detailed review. We're sorry that you've experienced these issues with the app. We are currently working on an expedited fix to address the search bar problem and will deliver an update as quickly as possible. Thank you for using the app and good luck in your job search!

Almost.

I wish there was a way to ๐Ÿ‘ or ๐Ÿ‘Ž jobs so I know which ones Iโ€™ve looked at already.

Adding resume to application

I have uploaded two resumes and I can open and see them. I click on a job. Hit apply. Click Choose. I get a message that says there is nothing her. I hit go to documents. I see the resume doc I want to add and it will not add. It does nothing. What do I do?

App now working great

App working great. Able to update my info. Able to view new jobs. Wish for better sorting of jobs selected to view though. Unless there is a way to sort I haven't found yet.
