Upload your résumé once. Get hiring-grade variants, real matches, and direct lines to the people doing the hiring.
The talent layer of the eVamb suite. Connext Refer restructures your résumé into role-specific variants tuned to actual openings, matches you by skill stack (not keyword spam), and connects you directly to the founder or hiring manager — without the recruiter tax.
Built for the candidate side of the table.
Most hiring tools are built for recruiters. Connext Refer is built for you — the person actually trying to land the job.
Role-specific, not generic.
Upload once. Connext Refer generates a tailored variant per role — re-ordering experience, surfacing the right projects, rewriting bullets so the same career reads correctly for product manager, founding engineer, or consultant openings.
Match by capability, not keywords.
We extract your real skill stack from your work history — "shipped a Stripe billing flow," "ran a 12-person ops team," "wrote a federal grant" — and match it against openings asking for that shape. No keyword games.
Real openings, not aggregator noise.
Openings come from founders and hiring managers using Connext directly — verified businesses, fresh roles, no expired ghost-postings. Filter by stage, comp, remote/hybrid, sponsor visa.
Message hiring managers, not bots.
For matched openings, message the actual hiring manager. They see your business card (skill stack + variant) before they see your message. No recruiter funnel. No ATS black hole.
You control who sees your stack.
Public, semi-public (only matched companies), or private (only when you reply). Currently employed? Hide your profile from your current employer's domain with one toggle.
Track everything in one place.
Runs, matches, downloads, conversations, password, billing. Export your data any time. Delete your account in one click — we delete everything within 30 days.
For people who've outgrown the application form.
"My résumé reads as 'backend engineer.' I want to pivot to founding-engineer roles at early-stage startups."
Connext Refer generates a founding-engineer variant — leading with shipped projects and breadth — and matches you with founders looking for exactly that shape.
Result — direct intros, not cold applications."I don't have a brand. I have a portfolio. LinkedIn filters me out."
Skill-stack matching surfaces your portfolio (open-source contributions, side projects, course capstones) to early-stage teams that hire for raw signal, not pedigree.
Result — seen by teams that hire for skill, not school."LinkedIn sends me 200 applications, half from recruiters. I want to see candidates who can actually do the work."
Search Connext Refer by skill stack. Talk directly to candidates whose shape matches your role. No recruiter funnel.
Result — signal, not volume.Free for candidates. Always.
The seeker side — variants, matches, dashboard, direct DMs — is free for individuals. Employers pay a flat monthly fee, no per-candidate or per-hire charges, no recruiter contracts. Cancel anytime.
