Volume vs.
actually getting interviews.
LazyApply is a Chrome extension that fires hundreds of applications a day, mostly to LinkedIn, Indeed, and ZipRecruiter, with the same resume on every one. The promise is throughput: get your application in front of every recruiter, and let the law of large numbers do the rest.
It works — for some definitions of works. The trouble is that recruiters have adapted. A resume that's clearly been blasted to a thousand jobs is easy to spot, and most of them are filtered before a human ever sees them.
JobSwitch goes the other way. Read each job carefully, rewrite the application to fit, send fewer of them, get higher response rates. Same outcome, lower volume.

When LazyApply is the better choice
LazyApply is the right tool if you genuinely want maximum volume — you're casting a wide net, you don't mind being filtered out of three quarters of applications, and you're optimising for the rare hit at scale.
It's also useful if you already know your resume is strong for the role and you just need it filed into every system that asks for it.
If you've been blasting a hundred applications a week and the inbox is still empty, the problem isn't quantity — it's that no individual application is speaking to its role. JobSwitch is built for that.
Free during beta. No credit card.
