What job seekers ask, answered plainly.

Auto-apply tools, ATS filters, jobs that never reach LinkedIn, remote work from India, visa sponsors and first jobs.

Is there an AI that applies to jobs for you?

Yes. AI job agents such as landed find roles that fit you and submit the application for you, with a résumé tailored to the role and answers written for each question; others, like Simplify’s free extension, only fill the form while you click submit.

Are auto-apply tools safe? Can LinkedIn ban you for using them?

Tools that automate actions on LinkedIn itself break LinkedIn’s User Agreement, which prohibits bots and automated methods on its services, and can get your account restricted. Tools that apply on companies’ own career sites, as landed does, do not touch your LinkedIn account.

How do I find jobs that are not posted on LinkedIn?

Go to the source: most roles open first on companies’ own career pages, on systems like Greenhouse, Ashby and Lever, before or without a LinkedIn post. landed reads 249,862 open roles from those career sites, 31,486 posted in the last week.

How do I make my résumé pass ATS filters?

Use a text-based PDF or Word file, standard section headings, and the job posting’s own words for skills you really have. There is no universal “ATS score”: each employer configures its own ranking, so the goal is a résumé that parses cleanly and matches the role honestly.

What is an applicant tracking system?

An applicant tracking system (ATS) is the software a company uses to post jobs, take applications and move candidates through hiring. The most common in landed’s index are Greenhouse (64,319 roles), Workday (57,735 roles), Ashby (43,819 roles), SmartRecruiters (29,883 roles), Lever (11,899 roles).

How do I get a remote job from India?

Target roles that say they hire from India or your time zone, apply on company career pages early, and set your expectations on pay and contracts. 20% of open roles in landed’s index are fully remote, but many are limited to certain countries, so check eligibility first.

How can a fresher get a cybersecurity job, and where are the openings?

Build hands-on proof (labs, capture-the-flag results, a home lab write-up), add an entry certification, and apply to security operations, analyst and application-security roles early. In India, landed’s index holds 1,296 entry-level roles and 212 internships across functions.

How do I find companies that will sponsor my visa?

Use official lists first: the UK Register of licensed sponsors on gov.uk, and the USCIS H-1B Employer Data Hub for the US. Then read each posting: only 9% of postings in landed’s index mention sponsorship at all, so ask early when it is not stated.
