Product updates
The 15 updates to Applystead that went live for every member on .
If your connection drops while you add your résumé during setup, we now tell you to check it and try again, and everything you entered stays in place. If a file you chose has changed or moved since you picked it, we name it and ask you to choose it again.
In Applications, Your answers has a new switch under Employer quizzes, Keep quizzes I'd take myself out of Next steps. Turn it on and quiz invitations that Applystead can't take for you are filed under Updates in your Mailbox instead of Next steps. Interview invitations and video steps stay in Next steps, and turning the switch off brings the filed ones back.
What's new in the app now has a board, Members who made it happen. It ranks members by how many shipped changes were built from their feedback and shows ranks and counts, with your own row marked You. Every change built from your feedback counts once it ships.
In Resume studio, Defaults has a new switch, Use the same base resume for a company. While it's on, a new application to a company you applied to in the last 30, 60, 90 or 180 days starts from the same resume as your latest application there, still tailored to the new job. A job you add by its link now uses the resume rule of the search that matches it.
If one of your searches takes remote jobs in a country where you told us you aren't authorized to work, Otto now points it out in your queue. Remote jobs there usually ask you to live in that country, so one tap opens that search's places for you to take it out. Remote jobs open to where you live stay in your search.
When your search has titles that name a field, such as Product Analyst, and also a broad one-word title, such as Analyst, Auto apply no longer applies to jobs that match only the broad title. With Auto apply off you still see those jobs, below the ones in your field.
Employer forms each word things their own way, including which agreements you accept. More of those questions are now answered from the details you already gave us, so more of your applications can go out.
A posting's own section headings, such as the heading above its list of responsibilities, are no longer picked up as skills on tailored resumes. The posting's keywords and skills still lead your Skills list as before.
Written answers on your applications are now built from whole sentences of your own experience. An answer is never pieced together from fragments or cut off partway through.
Opening your Calendar now adds up each week's hours once, rather than again for the month view and the agenda. The page starts loading a little sooner, and your Time budget shows the same numbers as before.
We changed which Applystead pages we ask Google to list. Our main pages, guides, tools and research stay listed; company, role and salary pages stay on the site and in other search engines. Nothing changes in your account, your queue or your applications.
Your Calendar now shows a Time budget: the hours in your week, how many go to meetings and interviews, and how many are open. Add the jobs you hold and their pay under Jobs and pay to see what a meeting hour of each is worth beside what an interview hour is worth. The same figures are on Interviews and your Dashboard, and connected assistants and the API can read them.
When you give a calendar to a job you hold under Jobs and pay, that job's meetings no longer fill Upcoming or the next event above your inbox. Interviews and events that came from your mail stay on the list, and invitation cards and free times still check your whole calendar.
What's new pages from before November 2 still describe the plans and prices we had on their day. Each now opens with a short note saying plans have since changed, with today's price, the free trial and a link to current pricing. Behind the scenes, search engines no longer list company pages that show a code instead of an employer's name.
The custom domain button in your Mailbox settings and in Membership now reads Set up custom domain for everyone, including during your free trial. Inside, you choose Get a new domain or Use a domain I own, so it's clear you can connect a domain you already have.
