Every good role, a strong and true application

Blash Ascent finds the roles worth your name, writes a CV and a cover letter for each one from your own record, checks every application before it goes, and sends it from your own computer. You answer only what only you can answer.

What we are trying to fix

Nobody decides to spend their evenings on application forms. It happens one role at a time, and the good roles get the same tired CV as the rest.

  • The search is a second job. Five job boards, a dozen alerts, the same role posted three times under three titles. By the time the few worth applying for are found, the evening has gone.
  • Every site wants the same things, asked a new way. A new account, the CV you just attached typed again one box at a time, and the same questions about notice, salary and the right to work, worded differently on every form.
  • A good application takes an evening. Rewriting the CV and the letter for one role is the difference between being read and being passed over. So most people choose: the same CV everywhere, or a few good ones and no week left.
  • The shortcuts cost more than they save. One CV sent to hundreds of roles, or a line stretched until it is no longer quite true. The first is ignored; the second falls apart in the first interview.
  • Weeks later, nobody remembers what was sent. When a recruiter finally calls, which version did they read, and what was said about salary?

How Blash Ascent works

Most tools that apply for you send one CV to as many roles as they can find. This does the opposite: fewer, better applications, each written for its role and true to your record.

Every role is judged against your record

Each new advert is read against what you have actually done and what you want next. The ones worth your name go forward; everything else is set aside with the reason written down, so you can see why.

A CV written for each role, and every line true

The CV is reordered around what that employer asked for, and each line is checked against your own record before it can be sent. If you have not done it, it does not say it.

A cover letter for that role and no other

Written from the same record, checked the same way, and never naming an employer, a figure or a skill your CV does not support.

The forms, filled from what it already knows

Notice, right to work, whether you would move, where you heard of the role: the same true answer on every site, however the question is worded.

Asked once, never guessed

A question only you can answer, such as the salary you want or a declaration, comes to you once. Answer it and it is used from then on. It never guesses a figure or a declaration for you.

A final check before anything is sent

The whole application is read the way the employer will read it: is it true, is it written for this role, is anything missing? Only then does it go.

Sent from your own computer, in your name

Applications go from your own browser and your own accounts, a steady few each day, while you get on with yours. It applies on employers’ own sites too, and hands back anything it cannot finish, with the one thing left to do.

Every application kept

Where it went, which CV, what was answered, the confirmation that came back, and what the employer said. When a recruiter calls, you know exactly what they read.

What it is for

  1. Get your evenings back

    The searching, the forms and the rewriting are done for you. What reaches you is the short list of things only you can decide.

  2. Apply well, not just often

    Each application is written for its role, so a steady few each day carry more weight than a hundred of the same CV.

  3. Nothing untrue under your name

    Every line is traced to your own record, and every declaration is yours to make. Nothing is stretched to get a call you could not use.

  4. Always know where you stand

    Every role found, judged, sent or set aside is on one screen, with what came back.
