We’re excited to launch ApplyIQ, our groundbreaking AI job search agent that automatically applies to relevant jobs on your behalf. With ApplyIQ, Adzuna becomes the first major job search engine to prioritize quality-first automatic applications.
Built on over a decade of AI experience, ApplyIQ uses large language models (LLMs) to intelligently match candidates with jobs aligned to their skills, experience, and goals. Unlike existing tools that focus on quantity, ApplyIQ emphasizes precision—ensuring only the most relevant applications reach recruiters.
How ApplyIQ Works
Users upload their resume, choose up to eight job titles, select desired work locations, and set salary expectations. ApplyIQ then:
Searches Adzuna’s vast job database
Scores matches based on job fit and user preferences
Automatically applies with a customized cover note for high-scoring roles
Users can monitor and adjust their preferences anytime through the ApplyIQ dashboard.
Meeting Demand for Smarter AI Tools
In our recent survey of 1,200 US jobseekers:
87% wanted more AI-powered job search tools
Nearly two-thirds already use AI for job hunting
Almost 70% don’t view using AI as cheating
However, concerns remain. About 25% hesitate due to quality and accuracy issues. ApplyIQ addresses this need for smarter, more ethical AI solutions—benefiting both jobseekers and recruiters.
Built for Relevance and Reliability
ApplyIQ is designed with quality control at its core:
Strict filtering: Rejects 1 in 5 conventional applications; users are 2x more likely to be shortlisted
Moderate volume: Sends ~5 highly relevant applications per user per week
Resume integrity: No resume rewriting or keyword stuffing
Built-in screening: Resumes must meet minimum quality standards
Employer limits: Max of 2 applications per employer every 60 days
Active users only: Users must confirm they're actively job searching
Geo-blocking: Prevents out-of-region applications
We’ve also created a feedback loop with employers to continuously refine candidate quality—more on that to come.
A Legacy of Responsible AI
Since 2015, Adzuna has been a pioneer in ethical AI tools:
ValueMyResume helps jobseekers understand their market value
Prepper offers AI-powered interview coaching
ApplyIQ is our latest advancement—part of a full-funnel recruitment solution that combines AI matching, social media advertising, and automation to streamline hiring.
From Our CEO, Doug Monro
“AI should be a force for good in recruitment. ApplyIQ is our answer to the flood of low-quality applications and shady automation tools. It offers a responsible alternative—boosting candidate quality and hire rates for recruiters.”
ApplyIQ is now available on Adzuna’s US and UK platforms.
