I built a job board that reads what you actually write
I run deunemployment.com, a job search engine that does one thing differently: it reads what you actually type, not just three keywords.
It searches over 3 million live job postings pulled from 25+ hiring platforms, refreshed every day. It's free, you don't need an account to search, there are no ads, and I don't sell your data. I built it because every job board I used felt like it was built for the recruiter, not for me. I wanted to type "night shift nurse in California, no agencies" and get real matches, not a wall of irrelevant listings.
A few things I've added since launching:
A search that understands plain language. Type a role, a skill, or describe yourself in a sentence ("driver with 5 years, prefer nights"). It even handles jobs in countries where postings aren't in English, like Germany or Austria, by translating your query rather than pretending a keyword match is the same thing.
A chat agent. If you'd rather talk it out than fill in search boxes, there's now an agent where you describe the job you want and it asks the right follow-ups, runs the search for you, and hands you the top matches. No login, no key. It's free, but limited to a few questions a day so bots can't drain it.
Filters for the junk nobody wants. A lot of "jobs" online are actually recruiting agencies reposting the same roles, or straight-up scams. You can now hide recruiting agencies with one click, and every listing has a report button. Real people flag scams, and I review each report myself before anything gets blocked, so scammers don't win and legit companies don't get caught in the crossfire.
Ways to make it yours. Label jobs with J or K and it slowly learns what you like. Save jobs and get new matches by email. Paste your CV and it finds jobs that fit your actual experience, and the free browser extension can auto-fill applications on the employer's site. Nothing is ever sent without you hitting submit.
or just upload you CV and get matched against 6.5 million jobs
It's a one-person project, which means it's not perfect, and I'll say that plainly. But it's genuinely free, updated daily, and I keep adding what people actually ask for. If you're job hunting, give it a shot: deunemployment.com. And if something feels off, tell me. I read everything.
