How it works
Roast it. Fix it. Land it.
No generic motivational poster. Just a clear sequence from the CV you have to the application you want to send.
01
Upload your CV
Drop the current draft when uploads launch. PDF only—quick, simple, no public posting.
02
Get a 60-second roast
See what feels vague, dated or confusing before a recruiter has to decode it.
03
Choose the rewrite
If you want the comeback, select a SA ATS rewrite package. No checkout is live yet.
The roast is never personal
We're roasting the CV, not you.
A bad draft is fixable. The jokes are aimed at the habits keeping good candidates hidden—not at where you're from, what you studied or where you are in your career.
Matric museum
Your 2017 Life Orientation mark is not the flex you think it is.
Too much info
Your ID number, full home address and star sign can sit this one out.
Load-shedding lore
A load-shedding excuse is not an achievement bullet. Let’s find the real one.
