How often are new jobs added?

Every minute. We scan thousands of hiring sources in real-time so you see roles as soon as they go live, often hours before they appear on public job boards.Early access = higher odds of getting interviewed.

Why can I only view limited per day on the free plan?

Free access gives everyone a fair starting point. But seeing every job instantly creates an unfair advantage, so unlimited browsing is reserved for Pro users who want full access to fresh, hidden, and time-sensitive roles. Limiting free browsing also prevents automated scraping by competitors.

What sources do you pull jobs from?

We aggregate from: - company career pages - startup platforms - ATS systems (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, etc.) - niche regional job boards - hidden talent networks not indexed by Google Over 50,000 sources → one unified feed.

Are these jobs legitimate?

Yes. We automatically remove: - expired listings - spam - shady postings - duplicates - fake "ghost jobs" Every job you see is active, real, and verified at the source.

What’s the benefit of upgrading to Pro?

Pro gives you an information advantage. You unlock: - unlimited job browsing - real-time alerts for your saved filters - early access to newly discovered roles - deeper filtering (salary, remote, visa, experience, etc.) - access to hidden sources most job seekers never find Pro users consistently apply earlier and get significantly higher interview rates.

Can I filter by location, experience, remote, or salary?

Yes and Pro unlocks the power filters job boards don’t show you, including: - roles posted in the last 24 hours - company ATS only - startup-only sources - remote-flex categories - international roles by timezone

Why are early alerts so important?

Most job applications pile up within the first 6–12 hours after posting. If you apply early, you skip the crowd and rank higher in recruiter screening. Our alerts give you that timing advantage.

If the employer provides it, yes. If not, we attempt to estimate using salary bands from public and private datasets (Pro only).

Is DayOneJobs suitable for senior roles too?

Yes. We cover all roles, from internships to senior-level. Filters simply let you tailor your feed to your level.
