What are the benefits of using Connectbot over a traditional job search?
Looking for a job the traditional way by searching job boards takes up a lot of time and energy. connectBot automates the process so you can apply for more roles in less time. It all depends, how much is your time worth to you?
How often is the Jobs Dashboard updated?
Our database is updated daily with the latest job posts
Which job boards are featured on the jobs dashboard?
Currently we show jobs from Glassdoor, LinkedIn and Indeed but will be adding more soon
How many potential connections will connectBot show me for each job?
20.
Why does the connections dashboard show me people from other countries?
  • Due to the interconnected nature of work now, we feel that any connection, even in another country could be crucial
  • With exploding popularity of remote work, this capability is important
Just to clarify however, a potential connection in a relevant role in your country will take precedence over those in others
Will all the potential connections shown on the people's dashboard be relevant?
Not necessarily. Even though we are consistently working on improving our search queries and filters, all of the following are possible: A potential connection
  • From a different company than the job posting
  • From a different department in the same company
  • That is not relevant at all
However, it is relatively quick to get around this problem. We give you the LinkedIn headline as well as the LinkedIn URL for each potential connection. All you need to do is first check the headline (this often contains the current company of the person) and then the URL.
Why does the connections dashboard show the same job title and company for each potential connection? Seems like unnecessary repetition?
This is due to the nature of the automation which uses a similar logic to mailmerge. To be able to personalize the linkedin message that goes along with your connection request, this repetition is necessary. This also allows us to give you another awesome feature; to edit the jobtitle and company name in real time.
Is the job title shown on the connections dashboard for the potential connection?
No. It is for the job you selected and has nothing to do with the potential connection. We need this for personalizing your message. Any details related to the potential connection can be viewed by visiting their LinkedIn URL.
Will I be shown the latest jobs in the jobs dashboard?
Yes. Our database is updated daily with the latest posted jobs.
Is there a limit to the number of job search terms I can use simultaneously?
Yes, you can use a maximum of 1 search term at a given time. This enables us to provide you with the best results.
My desired job search term is not available in the list.
In that case, email us at feedback@theconnectbot.com using subject “Search Term Suggestion”.
Can I filter the time period for which I am shown jobs?
Yes, you can use the 'JobDates' tab for the same.
Can I view people I have already reached out to and the related jobs?
We are currently working on an analytics dashboard that will show you the same and give you further insights. However, for now, you can accomplish this in the network section of your linkedin.
