The short answer
Direct answer
Use Jobscan to match your resume and LinkedIn profile to a job, track applications, and prepare applications you approve one by one. Use Day60 once you’ve picked a job and want to write to the people closest to the hire. Keep your resume tools. Day60 is the part after you find the job.
What Jobscan is for
Jobscan compares your resume with a job description and gives you a match rate out of 100, based on the hard skills, soft skills and other keywords it finds. It also scores your LinkedIn profile, and has a resume builder, a cover letter generator and a job tracker with a Chrome extension.
Jobscan’s Auto Apply prepares applications for jobs you choose, using your resume. You review, edit and approve each application before it’s submitted.
What Day60 is for
Day60 is a 60-day job-search sprint. It starts with a job you’ve picked. Paste the link or the description. Day60 helps you identify the four people closest to the hire: the hiring manager, their boss, an internal champion and the recruiter.
For each person, Day60 drafts a short message with one dated fact about them or their company, one result from your background and one easy question. Tick checks every draft against the rules before you see it. You edit it, send it yourself, and Day60 reminds you to follow up on day 7.
