AI service in use right now: Ollama Cloud, reached through the site operator's own Ollama server.
What AI Does Here
- Builds your profile from your CV. When you upload a CV, AI reads its text once and suggests skills, target roles and a short summary. You review and can edit the result. The CV itself is then discarded; only that profile is saved.
- Does not run when you search. Search results get their match percentage from fixed rules on this server that compare the job text with your profile and preferences. Nothing is sent to the AI service when you search; AI runs only when you open "AI Analysis" on a result or job.
- Keeps a shared job board. Public job postings found by the nightly search and by visitors' searches are stored (title, company, location, link, and up to 1,500 characters of the posting text with email addresses and phone numbers removed) and shown to everyone. The words of a search may be kept without your name, account or address, only to decide which searches to repeat at night, and are deleted 30 days after they were last searched; a search is kept only if it is short (at most five words, with no digits, links or email addresses) and every word already appears in the titles of several stored job postings, which keeps out most names and addresses. This is an automatic filter and cannot guarantee that no personal detail is ever kept.
- Writes a cover letter, an application answer or a follow-up message when you ask. A cover letter, or an answer to a question you paste from an application form, is written from the CV you upload on the Tailor CV page, using only what the CV says. A message draft (follow-up, nudge, thank-you, reference request, reply to an offer) is written from one saved job: its title, company, status and date applied, your notes for it and anything you type in the box. Your CV is not used for drafts. Neither is stored, and nothing is sent for you: you copy the text or open it in your own email or WhatsApp. You must check it before you send it.
- Tailors a CV to one job when you ask. If you upload a CV on the Tailor CV page, AI rewrites it for the job you choose, using only what the CV already says, and lists anything the job asks for that the CV does not show so you can add it if true. Neither the CV nor the result is stored. You must check the result before using it.
- Advises on one vacancy when you ask. "AI Analysis" (on a saved job in My Jobs, in the details of a search result, and on a Job Board listing) compares the vacancy's requirements with your profile and says whether to apply, investigate or skip, with reasons for and against. It needs you to be signed in with a profile. The result is shown on screen for that visit and is not stored.
What AI Does Not Do
- It does not find the jobs. Search results come from a search service and company job boards.
- It does not write the "Short summary on the company" in My Jobs. That text comes from a web page found by the search service, with its source shown.
- It does not check whether a job is still open. That is done by an automated page check without AI.
- It does not review contracts or calculate salaries. Both use fixed rules and formulas written into the site.
- It does not apply for jobs, contact employers or make decisions about you. You decide what to save and where to apply.
What Is Sent to the AI Service
- When you upload a CV: its text, without the top of the CV and with your name, contact details and other personal details removed where they can be recognised (see below). This happens once, at upload.
- When you write a cover letter or an application answer: the same as tailoring a CV; for an answer, also the question you paste.
- When you draft a message: the job's title, company, status, date applied, your notes for it, the contact name, interview date and extra text you type, and the language and type you choose. The contact's email address or phone number is not sent; it only builds the link in your browser. Your name from your account is added to the message after the AI has written it.
- When you tailor a CV or write a cover letter: the CV text, without the top of the CV and with your name, contact details and other personal details removed where they can be recognised (see below), plus the chosen job's title, company, location and description, and any extra true details you type in the "Extra true details" box (handled like the CV text); for a cover letter or an application answer, also the public summary of the company if Joblim has already stored one, and for an answer the question you paste. Your name and contact details are put back into the result on the server, for that request only.
- When you open "AI Analysis" on a result or job (never when you only search): that job and your saved profile (skills, target roles, summary, evidence points) and preferences (including the Hebrew level you chose, if any), not the CV text. The first time, this choice is recorded with its date.
- For each vacancy: title, company, location and part of the description.
- When you use "AI Analysis": that listing's title, company, location, link and description (if it has none, the server reads the posting page, as in My Jobs) and, for a saved job, your notes on it.
- Not sent: your account email, your offers or contract files.
The AI service processes this text outside this site. How long it keeps it is set by that provider's own terms, not by Joblim. Joblim does not keep AI results: match scores, AI Analysis results, tailored CVs, cover letters, application answers and message drafts are shown to you and then discarded, not cached or stored. Only the profile you save is kept.
Limits You Should Know
- AI output can be wrong, incomplete or biased. A high score does not mean you will be hired and a low score does not mean you are unsuitable.
- AI models learn from text that can carry social biases. Joblim tells the AI not to consider age, sex, religion, origin, family status, health or similar characteristics, but it cannot guarantee the results are free of bias. Scores and analyses are for your own use only; they are never given to employers and must not be used to judge whether anyone is suitable for a job.
- AI is told to use only the text of your CV and the job. It can still misread them, and a tailored CV, cover letter, application answer or message can contain wording that overstates or misstates your experience. You are responsible for checking it and removing anything untrue before you send it to an employer.
- If the AI service is busy or unavailable, the site falls back to keyword matching and says so ("Keyword-based fallback").
- Scores labelled "AI" are AI-generated. Check the job on the employer's page before applying.
Who Processes the Text
- The AI service named at the top of this page receives the text listed above, outside Israel. Joblim uses the provider's paid programming interface (API), not a consumer chat app.
- What Ollama states: prompt and response data is never logged or used for training; its hosting partners (NVIDIA cloud providers) must keep no logs and retain no data; models run mainly in the United States and may be routed to Europe for extra capacity (Ollama Cloud, Ollama privacy policy).
- Whether the provider keeps the text, for how long, and whether it may use it to improve its models is set by that provider's own terms and data policies. Joblim does not control them and does not promise more than they say. Read the provider's terms before you use the AI tools if this matters to you.
- Other services that receive data (sign-in, search, place names, network) are listed in the Privacy Policy. The site itself runs on a server controlled by the operator.
- If the AI provider changes, the name at the top of this page changes at once. If the change affects what is sent or where it goes, the policies are updated and you are asked to agree again.
Removing Contact Details Is Not Anonymisation
Before CV text is sent for any of these features (profile, tailoring, cover letter, application answer), Joblim leaves out the top of the CV (the lines before the first heading such as "Experience" or "Summary", where the name, contact details and address usually are), then removes your name, contact details (email, phone, links), birth date or age, ID numbers, family status and labelled personal details (such as "Date of birth:", "DOB 01/02/1990" or "Address:") from the rest; your name is put back into the result on the server. This is automatic pattern matching: it cannot recognise every CV layout, so some personal details may remain, for example an address or nationality written in a sentence. Employers, job titles, dates, places and qualifications are not removed, because the AI needs them, and together they can still identify you. Treat anything you send to the AI tools as personal information.
Your Choices
- You can search without an account, in which case no CV or profile is sent anywhere.
- The AI tools are optional and only run when you use them. You can stop at any time: delete the profile built from your CV (Profile page, "Delete My CV Profile") and stop using Tailor CV, cover letters, application answers, message drafts and AI Analysis. Your account and saved jobs stay. To remove everything, delete your account (Profile page, "Delete My Account").
