Application packs
A cover letter, CV change list, ATS screening and strategy notes for each job run.
What is a job run, and how do revisions work?
A job run produces the complete output: a cover letter in your own voice, a prioritised list of CV changes with the reasoning for each, an ATS screening naming what you match and what you don’t, and candid positioning advice for that role. It costs one job run credit. A revision is separate: it updates an application you’ve already generated with your feedback folded in, and produces that same complete output again. Every pack bundles in a handful of free revisions (not part of your job run credits, and not tied to any one job), so spend them on whichever applications need another pass.
Capturing jobs is free and always has been; what costs money is generating the application. So you can build your shortlist first and spend runs only on the jobs you’re serious about.
Interview pack
For when the application worked and the interview is booked: practice interviews built from your CV against that job: follow-up questions that react to what you actually say, and honest feedback with no scores. Each pack covers one job (15 practice sessions plus one final mock, all aimed at that role), and sessions belong to that pack, separate from job run credits. How interview practice works →
You may not need this yet. Job runs are what you use to apply; the interview pack is for after you’ve been shortlisted. Each pack covers one job, so there is nothing to gain by buying one before you know which job it is for. Buy the runs now and come back for the interview pack when you have an interview booked.
Before you buy
What the price pays for
A high-capability model writes your letter, and a separate check reads it before you do. Inventing experience you don’t have is the failure that matters most in an application, a claim you cannot stand behind at interview, so catching invention is what the pipeline is built around.
Every generation is also checked before you see it by a second, separate model call. A claim your own documents don’t support is dropped, or the letter is rewritten until it holds, and if it still doesn’t, the generation fails rather than reaching you, and the credit goes back. That check is a model reading a model, so it is not infallible; what we can promise is which way it errs. Separately, before any change to how Rolebird writes goes live, it is graded by a second, independent model against nine criteria with hard floors on invention. The method is published, including how the ATS screening in particular is tested.
Get your CV ready
You strip your CV and base cover letter of personal details before uploading (name, contact details, address, referee names, ID numbers, and links to personal profiles) and generalise your employers (“Xero, 2019–2022” becomes “a NZ fintech, 2019–2022”). We check every upload, but the check is not the same thing everywhere: contact details, ID and bank numbers, an address or a profile link block the upload; a likely name, referees or a driver licence are flagged for you to fix or accept. Employer names and dates aren’t detected at all, which is why the generalising above is yours to do. See the full list.
Runs wait on your account, so buying before you’ve done that costs you nothing but a few minutes of order, unlike a trial clock, which is one reason we stopped selling one.
Refunds and leftovers
Unused runs sit on your account until you use them. Buying a pack you don’t get around to using isn’t on its own a refund. If a generation fails on our side you get the credit back automatically, so a failed run never costs you one. And if we didn’t deliver what we promised, get in touch. We’ll look into it and put it right, refund included where the fault is ours. Everything you generate stays available whether or not you buy again. See the Terms for the detail, including what happens to a balance on an account left unused for a year.
Supporting a group of jobseekers or students?
Rolebird works with education providers and organisations on pilots for a cohort: what a pilot involves, what your team keeps hold of, and where student data goes. Ask about a cohort pilot.
Community organisations, student services and programmes supporting people back into work can also ask about discounted access. Get in touch and tell us who you work with.
