Jobright, the AI-native job platform, has launched Jobright Agent, the first AI-powered career agent that automates the entire job search process—finding, customizing, and submitting applications on behalf of job seekers. Already trusted by over 520,000 professionals and experiencing 30× year-over-year growth, Jobright claims the new agent reduces job search time by 80% and delivers twice as many interviews compared to traditional job boards.
The announcement coincides with a successful $3.2 million funding round led by Translink Capital and supported by HR Tech Investments, the venture arm of Indeed.
Reinventing the Job Search Model
Unlike traditional job boards that rely on manual searches and repetitive applications, Jobright Agent adopts a proactive, AI-first approach. It scans thousands of sources, understands user profiles, and customizes recruiter-ready applications—streamlining the job hunt process from start to finish.
“For decades, job boards made you work. Now, our agent works for you,” said Eric Cheng, Co-founder and CEO of Jobright. “The future of job search is searchless.”
Key Features That Define Jobright Agent
- From Search to Match: Automatically identifies opportunities that align with the user’s skills, experience, and career goals.
- From Manual to Automated: Eliminates repetitive job applications, allowing candidates to concentrate on strategic tasks like interview preparation.
- From One-Way to Two-Way Fit: Goes beyond keyword matching by analyzing compatibility between candidates and employers, improving offer rates.
- From Passive to Proactive: Actively scouts for relevant job opportunities, taking initiative on behalf of the user.
Fueling Global Expansion and Advanced AI Development
The new funding will accelerate Jobright’s next stage of growth—enhancing its AI capabilities, strengthening infrastructure, and expanding into international markets. Additionally, the company is developing an employer-facing solution to streamline direct connections between hiring teams and top talent.
“Jobright is built on the fundamental premise that there is a better way of doing job search and matching in the age of AI,” said Kelvin Mu of Translink Capital. “Rather than retrofitting AI onto yesterday’s job boards, they built an agent-first platform from scratch.”
