A match card on a phone: Senior Finance Manager, employer withheld, thirteen of eighteen requirements met, marked worth applying, with red chips for the UAE licence and Arabic the posting requires.

One match card, captured from the running app on a phone rather than drawn.

Three things happen

Rewrite, match, tailor.

Every screen below is the product as it works today — same counts, same chips, same wording.

01Rewrite

Your CV, rewritten to get read by software.

Acronyms expanded, buried skills surfaced, tense fixed, weak lines flagged. Every edit arrives as a suggestion with the original beside it. You approve each one.

The CV review screen: each proposed correction shown as a checkbox with the original line and the rewritten line beside it.

02Match

Every live opening, counted against your CV.

Not a percentage. A count — which requirements you meet, which you don’t, and what rules you out before you spend an application on it.

13 of 18 requirements · needs Arabic · possible ghost · UAE nationals only

A match card marked worth applying: thirteen of eighteen requirements met, with red chips for the UAE licence and Arabic the posting requires.
A demoted match card: the posting states the role is open to UAE nationals only, and carries a possible-ghost score.

Sunk to the bottom of your list, not hidden.

03Tailor

Pointed at one role, using only what you wrote.

Pick a posting and your CV is re-ordered and re-worded in its language. Same facts. Where the role asks for something that isn’t in your CV, you get a question instead of a claim.

The tailoring screen asking about requirements the CV does not show, each answerable with I have this or I don't.

Only in the UAE

Three things that decide a UAE application before your CV is read.

Every posting is checked for them, and the answer sits on the card — not behind a click.

01 · Visa & licence

Hard blockers, shown first.

A UAE driving licence, a transferable visa, business Arabic, an attested degree. If a posting states it and your CV doesn’t, you see it on the card before you open it.

02 · Emiratisation

Closed and prioritised are not the same.

Reserved for UAE nationals means don’t spend the application. Emiratisation priority means nationals go first and you can still apply. The card says which.

UAE nationals onlyEmiratisation priority

03 · Ghost jobs

Postings that were never open.

Reposted four times, withheld employer, sixty days live, agency listing with no client. Each pattern adds to a score you can see, plus reports from people who clicked through and found it gone.

worth applying

You meet the hard requirements the posting states.

caution

Amber costs you something — time, a stretch, a doubt worth weighing.

blocked

Red is a stated rule you cannot meet today. It stays visible.
