ApplyFirst – Real-time job alerts to apply first

Summary: ApplyFirst monitors job listings in real-time and sends immediate email alerts, enabling users to apply before hundreds of others. It offers smart filtering by title, location, seniority, and excluded keywords, with a dashboard to track notifications and application status.

What it does

ApplyFirst scans job postings continuously and delivers faster alerts than LinkedIn or Indeed’s daily digests. Users customize filters and manage all job alerts and application progress through a centralized dashboard.

Who it's for

Job seekers aiming to apply early and increase visibility before large applicant pools accumulate.

Why it matters

It addresses delayed job alerts that cause candidates to miss early application windows, improving chances of recruiter attention.
