Step 1
Tell Vektr where you're headed.
Sign-up takes about 10 minutes, once, and it feels more like a conversation than a form. Tell Vektr about yourself in your own words (upload a résumé if you like), where you want to go, your pay floor, your commute, your dealbreakers, and what matters most to you, in order. Then Vektr asks a few questions to get to know you, and weighs every role against all of it.
- Start anywhere. A first job, a new field, or the next rung up. Pay can be hourly or yearly.
- Change it any time. Your answers aren't set in stone.
- Private beta. You need an invitation for now. Bring Me Aboard, below, gets you on the list.
About 10 minutes, once
Step 2 · Vektr Scan
Bring the alerts you already get.
Job alerts don't save you time. They hand you homework: dozens of listings a day, most of them wrong, each one a click, a skim and a guess. Vektr gives you a private address. Forward your job alert emails to it, or set your email to forward them for you, and Vektr does that first pass on every listing, every day. Found a role on your own? Paste it in, or send it with the free browser extension for Chrome and Edge.
- No new accounts to link. Vektr never logs in to your email or to any job site. You forward; Vektr scans. It works with the alerts you already get.
- You decide what goes in. Vektr only sees what you forward, paste or send.

Step 3 · Vektr Score
Vektr scans every listing and scores the keepers.
Vektr pulls each listing out of your emails, drops duplicates and obvious misses, finds the full posting when an email shows only a teaser, and scores the promising ones. You open one short list of roles worth your time. Most job tools match keywords on your résumé and call it a fit. Vektr starts with you: where you're headed, what matters most to you and in what order, your pay floor, your commute, your dealbreakers. Its own scoring method weighs every role against all of it. The score has three parts.
- Strength: how well the role suits you, from Skip to Top pick.
- Standing: how well you match what the role asks for, from Out of reach to Qualified.
- Bearing: whether it moves you toward your goal: Destination, Bridge, Lateral or Detour.
- Your dealbreakers are respected, and Vektr gets sharper as you go. Tell it why a role isn't for you, and the next scores reflect it.
- Nothing slips by. Every email is accounted for, and the rest are set aside, not deleted.
Step 4 · Vektr Relay
Vektr Relay brings strong fits, too.
Every job search turns up roles that aren't right for you but would be perfect for someone else. Beyond what you bring, Vektr can bring roles from companies' own job boards, and, if you opt in to Vektr Relay, from other members passing along roles that aren't right for them. Picture a constellation of job seekers, each one helping the next. Only roles that look like a strong fit for you reach you.
- Opt in or not. Joining Relay is your choice, and you can turn the wider scan off in Settings. A role that isn't for you goes on to members it fits, without a finger lifted.
- Help comes the same way. Roles from members searching in places you aren't looking.
- See the good you've done. Count the members your roles reached, and the ones who got hired.
- Nothing to browse. Vektr is not a job board. There's no list to dig through; Vektr brings you only the roles that fit.
Step 5
Keep track, with help at every step.
Mark a role Interested or Not for me. When you apply, move it into the Tracker and keep notes and dates there. Roles you set aside wait in Archive, so nothing disappears without you knowing.
- One place for every application. What you applied to, and what happens next.
- Coming soon: guidance at each stage. A résumé and cover letter tuned to the role, interview prep, and pointers for negotiating your offer.
