How the G3 Apply copilot picks jobs for you

The copilot is the part of G3 Apply that looks for jobs and prepares applications for you. It doesn’t guess what you want. It follows criteria you set and can change at any time. Knowing how those criteria work helps you get better matches and spend less time throwing out jobs that don’t fit.

Step one: tell it what you’re looking for

When you set up a copilot, you choose:

• Where you want to work. Remote roles, roles with a physical location (on-site or hybrid), or both. For remote roles, you pick the whole world or the countries and regions where the job can be posted. For on-site and hybrid roles, you pick one country and, optionally, specific cities.
• Job types that make sense for you.
• A search method. The most common is job title keywords: you type the titles you’re after and can accept suggestions for similar ones. You can also ask for jobs similar to the ones you’ve saved as favorites, or similar to the last jobs you applied to.
• The resume it should use to fill in applications. Each copilot uses a single resume for every application. To use a different resume, for example one per field, you create another copilot, on plans that include more than one copilot.

One tip that applies to any search: include variations of your job title. "Data analyst", "BI analyst" and "business intelligence analyst" can describe very similar work under different names.

Job Match: how well you meet the requirements

Job Match compares the experience and skills on your resume with the main requirements of each job. You choose the level:

• High: you meet more than half of the requirements.
• Higher: you meet most of them.
• Highest: you meet all of them.

The higher the level, the fewer jobs come through, but they tend to fit your profile better. You can turn Job Match off, but then the copilot may prepare applications for jobs where you don’t meet the minimum requirements. That’s why we recommend keeping it on.

Keep in mind that the comparison depends on what your resume actually says. If an important skill isn’t on it, Job Match can’t take it into account. One more reason to keep your resume complete and specific.

Filters that narrow the search

On top of the basics, there are optional filters:

• Seniority, so you don’t get roles far above or below your experience.
• Time zones for remote roles, including jobs open to any time zone.
• Industry and job language.
• Keywords in the description, to include or exclude terms. Use them sparingly: excluding a common word can cut out good jobs, and putting job titles here usually hurts more than it helps.
• Excluded companies, so you never get jobs from places you don’t want to work.

How often it searches

Once it’s switched on, the copilot checks for new jobs regularly, every few hours. Changes to your settings apply from the next search.

What happens when it finds a job

The copilot prepares the application with the resume you chose and with the screening answers you’ve given before. What happens next depends on the apply mode you pick when you create the copilot.

• Auto-save and review manually, the recommended mode and the one selected by default: the application waits on the review screen, where you can edit the form answers, turn resume tailoring for that job on or off (and view the changes), open the cover letter or discard the job. It’s submitted only after you approve it.
• Apply automatically: the copilot fills in and submits applications on its own, without your review. When a required answer that only you can give is missing, the application waits for you.

It’s worth starting with review. You get to check the first applications, fine-tune your answers and move to automatic mode only once you feel confident.

On the free plan, the copilot organizes and prepares applications. Daily sending is part of the paid plans, with limits per plan.

Making the copilot sharper over time

• Discard what doesn’t fit, and adjust whichever filter let it through.
• If too few jobs come in, add similar titles or relax one filter at a time.
• If too many off-target jobs come in, raise the Job Match level or the seniority filter.
• Take your time with screening answers the first time around: they’ll be reused later.

The copilot is there to take the repetitive part of the search off your plate. The criteria, the answers and the apply mode are still your call.
