We’re about a month in, and she’s been crushing it so far :) She’s a Junior at Indiana University studying marketing, and she’s been supporting our socials and blog. ?? Here’s a bit about her (wait until you see her fun fact ??): ????????????????: "What inspired you to apply for this internship?"? ??????????: When I was overwhelmed with job-searching, Simplify’s extension and job matches saved me a TON of time. I was super excited when I saw you were hiring! ????????????????: “What’s been your favorite part of working here so far? ??????????: My favorite part has been the opportunity to make a tangible impact on growth, and sharing advice that I would’ve loved to have known when I was looking for an internship. ????????????????: “What’s a fun fact people would never know about you?”? ??????????: I walk a lot – my PR is 34 miles in a day (around 60K steps) – to help me clear my mind and sometimes out of boredom * this was crazy to learn, given that I average <5k steps per day?? If you’re interested in marketing or want to help support the Simplifam, shoot her a connection at Emily Szczepanski :) ??.??. ???????? ???? ???????????? ???????? ????????????????? We’ll be opening up more internships soon! Just comment “interested” and we’ll reach out to you if you’re a good fit!?

When I started applying to internships last year, I was clueless. ? How are people applying to 300+ internships? ? Where do I even find these internships? ? What do I have to do to my resume? After a whole year round of recruitment, many interviews, and internship offers later… I’ve developed a 5-step system for internship applications. ?? Polish your linkedin profile ?? Have a well-written and formatted resume ?? Build a cover letter template to use ?? Block out times in your week to work on applications ?? Use Simplify to apply to internships Recently, I’ve been seeing more and more students getting burned out from applications, especially in this increasingly competitive job market. Whether it’s because of the constant split screen copy paste for job descriptions OR facing the overwhelming amount of internships on the web OR losing track of your applications, it’s almost a full time job to BE working on job applications. I did some research and found Simplify, which has become my go-to chrome browser for applications and an amazing job search site (NOT sponsored, but contact me Simplify ??) More specifically, Simplify helps you with: ??Tailors your role preferences to match you with relevant jobs ??Autofills repetitive job application questions ???Checks your resume for keywords to fit job descriptions ??Bookmark each of your applications to keep track for you. I know I would NEVER have made it to 550+ internship applications sent without the help of Simplify. The best part? Simplify is free. ______________ ??

???????? ???? ?????? ???? ???????????????? ?????? ???????????????????????? ???????? ?????? ??????????. Everyone knows that in the current job market with ATS systems, constant rejections, ghosting, and failed interviews, you must apply to hundreds of jobs to get one positive response. The process is brutal. You have to fill out your name, last name, phone number, email, upload your resume, and sometimes a lot more things like address, skills, portfolio link, LinkedIn link, etc. And you have to do it one by one every single time. When I was let go from my last job a couple of months ago, I was going crazy by repeating this redundant process. However, Customer Success has taught me to ???? ?????????????????? ???? ?????????????? ?????? ???????? ????????????????????.

They even have AI to help respond to custom questions on applications, but this is only available on the paid version. ?? ?????????? ???? ?????? ?????? ?????????????? ?????????? ???? ??????????. #jobsearch #jobseekers #Innovation #Website

Really enjoying using Simplify which is an awesome free tool that works as a browser extension and fills in all of my info automatically on job websites. It works on workday, icims, and greenhouse. It has saved me hours of time in my search for MBA defense tech and tech internships for summer 2025! Thanks Michael Yan for creating this super cool tool. https://simplify.jobs/

This is a photo of my dad, editing his resume and applying to his first job in 2001 – while holding 1-year old me. In the early 2000s, my dad was editing his resume in Microsoft Word and power-used Indeed to find and apply to jobs. He spent over a year job searching, eventually taking a role only slightly related to his degree and skills. But the process was so frustrating that my dad has been at the same job ever since – ?????? ???????????? ???? ??????????. Now, in 2024, ????’?? ?????????? ?????? ???????????? ?????? ?????????????? ???? ?????????????? ?? ?????? ?????? ??????????????. You still edit your resume in Word, find roles on job boards that have looked the same since 2000, and fill out (often) hundreds of applications. It’s still time-consuming, inefficient, and ?????? candidate-friendly. It’s sad that the biggest change in these photos is me – and not the way hiring is done. ?????? ???????? ??????????????’?? ???? ?????? ????????. My dad's story is part of why I dropped out of Stanford to build Simplify – think of it as your ???????????????? ????-???????????? ?????????? that helps you ???????????????? ???????? ???????????????????????? ?????????????? and ???????????????? ???? ?????? ?????? ??????????. Today, Simplify has helped over half a million candidates create over 1 million resumes and apply to over 40 million jobs. We're on a mission to help ???????????????? find a job they truly love – in a way that doesn't make you want to pull your hair out.

If there’s one thing I wish I had known earlier in my job search, it’s Simplify—an AI-powered tool that automatically fills out your applications, matches you with jobs, assists with cover letters, and so much more. I’m such a fan that I tell all my friends to go premium—totally worth it! Some might say using AI for job applications feels less genuine, but spending hours copying and pasting the same info (especially with Workday!) doesn't make the process more authentic, just less efficient. What makes a job search genuine is focusing on: ?? Understanding the job description for the right fit ?? Researching companies you're applying to ?? Networking with people in roles you’re interested in Simplify saves time and mental energy for what really matters. If you haven't checked it out yet, you should! Shout out to Michael Yan and the Simplify team for creating such an awesome tool! ??

Layoffs are happening. Every day, I see amazing talent in my network back on the market. Having recently been on the market myself, a tip: Use Simplify. (They are not paying me to say this. I don't know them. It's just really good.) Deep into my job hunt, I kept reading best practices that mentioned tailoring my resume to each job and writing a flawless cover letter. Great, in theory! But I had to choose between submitting 10 good applications a day and 3-4 great ones. In this market, and with the financial clock ticking, I had to choose the 10. Until I didn't. -Simplify used AI to tailor my existing resume based on keywords found in each individual job posting. (Take that, arbitrary applicant-tracking systems!) -It helped me generate similarly keyword-rich cover letters that I could then personalize. (You don't have to, but 100% AI-generated content is painful, obvious, and painfully obvious.) -It also suggested job openings for me based on some extremely selective parameters. (I'm picky!) Bonus: it cost 40 bucks for a 3-month subscription (the length of the average job search), and I got hired well before the subscription ended. The peace of mind alone was worth the cost, knowing that some fickle robot wouldn't reject me out of hand because I said "copywriting" instead of "copy writing". So, for all my friends newly on the job hunt, save yourself some time and elbow grease. Use something like Simplify, so you can play the numbers game without sacrificing quality.

I met my cofounder at the Stanford dining hall my freshman year of college. We became friends after unintentionally matching outfits and getting laughed at. Later that year, we went through the brutal process of finding a job/internship. After 100s of applications, we decided to build a product to address some of the biggest challenges we faced in the job search (the prototype for Simplify!) One year later, Ethan and I both:?? ? Dropped out of college (*the grad photo is fake, IYKYK) ? Turned down full-time job offers to do Y Combinator ? Moved to SF Today, we’ve built a platform that’s helped over half a million people apply to 40 million jobs. What I learned? Build companies with people who have a similar sense of fashion ?? *We have a third cofounder (Rushil) that also dresses similarly

First day of my last year at UCI, and no classes today! ????????’?? ?????? ??’?? ???????????? ?????? ???????? ???? ????: 1. Applying to jobs – Leveraging Simplify to speed up those Workday applications. 2. Consolidating my personal stories for behavioral interviews. 3. Practicing LeetCode to prep for coding assessments. So far, I’ve submitted about ???? ?????????????????????????for New Grad Software Engineering roles, with responses from ?? ???????????????????(interviews or coding assessments). The outlook is promising, and I’m excited for what’s ahead! If you’re open to sending a referral for any SWE openings, I’d greatly appreciate your support! Feel free to reach out to me on LinkedIn ??
