01 · People in rooms you aren’t in
Everyone in your corner, in one place
In-house recruiters, search firms, headhunters and your own network, each with when you last spoke, what’s owed, and the next touch. The people who can put you in a room are worked like a pipeline, not a memory.
What to notice
Warm paths come only from relationships you’ve confirmed. Vector never invents warmth to make a company look reachable.
Instead of: A LinkedIn inbox and good intentions.
01 · People in rooms you aren’t in
Open a door at the company you want
Ask who in your network can reach a company, then tell them where you’d like to be connected, with something you can offer back. Vector drafts the note, shows which of your contacts are most likely to reach that company, and gives each one a personal link to answer in a minute.
What to notice
Every note goes from your own LinkedIn or email, and you press Send; with the Vector extension the note is placed in LinkedIn’s message box for you. Vector never messages your contacts for you. Open Doors are free on every account.
Instead of: A mass post nobody reads, or twenty awkward messages.
01 · People in rooms you aren’t in
Your coach, inside your search
Bring the coach you already work with into Vector, or find one in Vector’s Coach Network. They see your real record, give feedback and set tasks with a date, and can draft an Open Door for you to send.
What to notice
On Standard and Pro. You invite them, and you can disconnect them at any time; their access ends at once. A coach advises; only you apply, send or decide.
Instead of: Retelling the last two weeks at the start of every call.
02 · Signal aggregation
Find the company before the job exists
Job Hunter Mode turns your record into a thesis about the companies that need you: funding, a first sales leader, a new segment. It watches for those signals every week and ranks what it finds, whether or not a role is posted.
What to notice
Every signal is dated and links to its source. A company with nothing you can verify doesn’t make the list.
Instead of: Waiting for the posting, along with everyone else.
02 · Signal aggregation
One move a day, and why it’s first
Everything in flight — roles, people, follow-ups, hunts — ranked by leverage into today’s plan. What’s waiting on you, what Vector is handling, and what’s stuck on someone else.
What to notice
Doing the work settles the reminder. Send the follow-up from anywhere and the plan knows.
Instead of: A spreadsheet and a guess about where to start.
02 · Signal aggregation
Roles arrive already researched
Every card carries a fit score, a quality score and the reasoning behind both, including the compensation conflicts and culture signals it found. You decide in seconds what used to take an evening.
What to notice
“Still unknown” names what it couldn’t establish instead of guessing, then goes looking.
Instead of: Two hundred applications and silence.
03 · Dossiers
A page that tells you what they read
One page per recipient, written from your approved record for that reader. You see which sections they opened, how long they stayed, whether they came back, and whether they took the résumé.
What to notice
Each reader gets their own link, so a forward shows up as a new reader. Your dossier keeps working in rooms you aren’t in.
Instead of: “Did they even open it?”
03 · Dossiers
What you can do, argued from evidence
Your DNA reads past titles and pedigree to the capability underneath, and shows what stands behind each claim: your documents, your work, and vouches from people who watched you do it.
What to notice
Every axis says what would raise it. It’s a record you can strengthen this week, not a grade.
Instead of: A résumé, which is a claim about the past.
04 · Tools for the hunt
For the roles you choose: the way in
A brief on the company, a map of who decides and who only screens, ranked routes to each, and the next action. Every pursuit is one workbench.
What to notice
Recruiters are logged and ranked last. The route that works is almost never the application form.
Instead of: A cold application into an ATS.
04 · Tools for the hunt
It asks before it assumes
Write “interview on Tuesday at 2” in a note and Vector asks whether to add the interview, move the application along, and prepare a brief the day before. One tap says yes.
What to notice
Nothing changes on your record until you answer. Only you answer the questions about your own search.
Instead of: A note that sits there while the date slips by.
04 · Tools for the hunt
Rehearse the interview with the person you’ll actually meet
Practice out loud with the hiring manager or recruiter you’re about to meet, on the questions this role and your gaps make likely. Each answer is scored on what you said and how you said it: pace, filler words, length, and whether you answered the question.
What to notice
When you had a stronger proof point and didn’t use it, the scorecard quotes it from your own record. Your recording is turned into text and not kept.
Instead of: Practicing generic questions in the mirror.
04 · Tools for the hunt
Answers to the recruiter, from your record
Paste the screening questions, or ask for a submission blurb, a 30/60/90, or a deck. Vector drafts it from what’s already on your record and hands you a Word or PowerPoint file.
What to notice
Anything only you know is flagged for you to answer, never invented.
Instead of: An evening rewriting the same story five ways.
