How landed works · updated 2026-11-04
Does landed write a new résumé and answers for every job?
Short answer
Yes. For each application landed rewrites your résumé for that role, writes a cover letter when the form asks for one, and fills every form field from facts you have given it. You can see exactly what changed on the résumé before anything is sent.
The steps for each application
Open any application in your Inbox and the Progress tab shows each step and whether it is done: personalise your résumé, write the cover letter, fill the application form, submit, and the employer's confirmation email.

Your résumé, rewritten for the role
With Personalise résumé on, landed rewords your summary, bullets and skills to match the job description, using only your own experience. The Résumé tab shows the version that will be sent, and you can download it as a file.

See what changed
Switch to What changed to see every edit highlighted against your original. Your saved résumé and facts stay the same; only the copy for this job changes. In Profile, Application defaults you can set the personalisation strength to Light, Balanced or Strong, or turn personalising off and send your résumé as it is.

Form answers come from your facts
What we know about you, in the Inbox side panel, holds the facts every form fills from: your name, contact details, links, work history, education, notice period, address, work authorization and voluntary questions. Edits save as you go. In Application defaults you choose how far landed fills: every field including optional ones, or only what it is certain of.
- Facts, dates and legal answers are never guessed
- A question landed cannot answer becomes an "Answer questions" step in your Inbox
- Each answer is saved once and used on every form after
Cover letters
When a form asks for a cover letter, landed writes one for that company, three short paragraphs from your profile and the résumé you picked. If you keep Check before sending on, you read it with the rest of the application before it goes.
