Question 1

How do I get a job faster?

Accepted Answer

By applying to fewer, better listings. Most applications fail for something you could have known beforehand: the role can't hire you in your country, the hybrid setup is tied to another city, the pay is below your floor, or it asks for spoken English you don't have. DameTrabajo checks those four things before showing you the listing, and writes every application aimed at that specific role.

Question 2

How many applications do you need to send to get a job?

Accepted Answer

Fewer than people usually send. Sending a hundred identical applications works worse than sending twenty targeted ones: a CV that echoes the listing's words gets past automatic filters, while a generic one gets discarded before a person ever reads it.

Question 3

How do I tailor my CV to each job posting?

Accepted Answer

What you've already done gets reordered based on what the listing asks for, using its words, without making anything up. DameTrabajo does this for you on every application, and also tells you what your base CV is missing: how many lines have a number, whether it states language levels, whether it clarifies which countries you can be hired in.

Question 4

Does this work for changing jobs while employed?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and it's where it matters most. Your profile is private and doesn't show up in any showcase or search engine: the only thing that goes out is the application you send, to the company you send it to. Nobody at your current job can see you're looking.

Question 5

How do I get a remote job from Latin America?

Accepted Answer

The problem isn't finding remote listings: it's that "remote" doesn't always mean they can hire you. Many limit it to certain countries or time zones without saying so in the title. DameTrabajo reads every listing and discards the ones that can't hire you where you live, before showing it to you.

Question 6

Do I need to build my CV before I start?

Accepted Answer

No. Upload the PDF LinkedIn generates from your profile, or the CV you already have in PDF, Word, or plain text — a photo or a scan works too. We read it, tell you what it's missing, and build your base CV in the design you choose, out of seven.

Question 7

Does it apply for me automatically?

Accepted Answer

The browser extension fills out LinkedIn's forms with your info, but you're the one who hits send. Applying automatically without the person seeing what gets sent is the fastest way to send something you didn't mean to.

Question 8

Does this work if I'm not in tech?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sales, administration, accounting, teaching, design, customer service. The four gates are the same for any field; what changes is your own values.

Question 9

How much does DameTrabajo cost?

Accepted Answer

There's a free plan that never expires and doesn't ask for a card: you search every day, we score your CV, build your base CV, and let you add listings by hand. Paid plans start at USD 25.99 a month, or USD 19.49 a month billed quarterly.

Question 10

What happens when I get a job?

Accepted Answer

The account switches modes: it stops looking for postings and moves to career mode, USD 9.99 a month. You keep your content —which pays off most right then, because that's when you finally have something new to say— and the career log: you write down what you're doing in the new role the day it happens, and that becomes CV bullets when you need them. If you'd rather not continue, do nothing: the plan you had ends on its own when it expires.
