A 15-minute questionnaire — your experience, your salary floor, where you'll work, what you want more of, and what you're running from. Attach your current resume in any state; we rebuild it completely.
We research current openings across job boards and employer career sites, score them against your background on six axes, screen out ghost postings and dead listings, and personally verify every application link is live before delivery.
For each match: a one-page, ATS-optimized resume engineered against that exact posting's language, a matched cover letter, the reasoning behind every choice — and a networking angle for each employer where one exists.
Launch pricing while our review base grows. Every package is built by a professional-grade AI research pipeline, directed and quality-reviewed by a human before it ships.
How ordering works: pay securely through Stripe, and you're taken straight to the questionnaire. Your delivery clock starts once your questionnaire and current resume are in — and you can cancel for a full refund any time before we begin work. See our refund policy.
Perfect when you've found the job and need to win it.

Most clients add this the day the interview invite lands. Full Campaign clients pay $20.
Scout & Tailor is a small, deliberately hands-on operation based in Lafayette, California, serving clients nationwide.
Across ten years at Chevron and Sandia National Laboratories — as a maintenance supervisor at a Richmond refinery and later as a facilities portfolio manager at a U.S. national laboratory — I wrote the job requirements, read the stacks of resumes, and sat in the interviews that decided who got hired. Scout & Tailor exists because that view of the process is the one candidates never get to see.
An AI research pipeline does the heavy lifting — that's how you get five researched, individually tailored applications for the price of one traditionally written resume. But nothing ships without a person reading it end to end, checking every claim against what you actually told us, and re-testing every application link that day.
We will tell you when a match is a stretch and why. We will never invent an employer, a title, a date, or a number to make you look better on paper — that gets people fired after they're hired. And we don't guarantee interviews or offers, because nobody can.
They're engineered for it — single-column layout, standard section headers, no tables or graphics, keywords drawn from each posting's actual language, written for the semantic AI screeners most employers now run. No honest service can promise a specific score on every proprietary system; this format is the industry standard for parsing reliably.
Your questionnaire sets hard constraints (salary floor, location/remote, industry vetoes) that we never violate. We then score candidate postings on requirements coverage, salary fit, logistics, a nameable edge you have over the median applicant, employer legitimacy, and whether the role delivers what you told us you want more of. Ghost postings, dead listings, and fee-charging "opportunities" are screened out, and every surviving link is re-verified the day your package ships.
Postings move fast — that's why we verify at delivery and tell you to apply within 48 hours. If a link dies before you get there, reply within your revision window and we'll swap in a live replacement.
No — you stay in control of where your resume goes. We hand you everything ready to submit, which also means your applications come from you, not a bot (employers penalize automated submissions).
Yes, openly: a professional-grade AI research and writing pipeline does the heavy lifting, and a human directs and reviews every package before it ships. That's how each order gets research and tailoring that would cost $500+ from a traditional service.
No, and you should be suspicious of anyone who does. We build you the strongest possible entry into processes where hundreds compete; the interviews are yours to win — and our Interview Prep package helps there too.
Order your package, spend 15 minutes on the questionnaire, and have a complete, verified, tailored application campaign in your inbox within 72 hours.
