Why it works

Why reach out first

  • Before the posting

    Plenty of roles are filled before they are ever advertised. Writing to the team first puts you in the conversation early.

  • The decision-makers

    The managers and heads who run the team you would join, each with a work email checked first.

  • An introduction, not a form

    A short personal email about what you bring to that company, sent from your Gmail once you approve it.

How Spontaneous Apply works

No job ad to answer: you choose the companies, Candiwize finds the people and writes the first email.

Companies, chosen by you

Say the role you want and where. Candiwize finds companies where people in that role work and shows them to you first. You keep the ones you would like to join and drop the rest.

The right people in each

For each company you keep, Candiwize looks for the managers and heads who run the team you would join, and checks their work emails. Companies you already wrote to sit apart, so nobody hears from you twice.

An introduction worth reading

Each email is written from your CV for that company and that person: who you are, what you have done that matters to them, and a simple ask. One person, one email.

Held until you say yes

Nothing leaves without you. Read each introduction, change any word, then send it from your own Gmail, now or at a time you pick.

Questions

Questions about Spontaneous Apply

What is a spontaneous application?

Writing to a company that has not posted a job for your role, to introduce yourself to the person who would hire you. Done well, it puts you in front of a team before a posting exists, without a pile of other applicants.

How does Candiwize choose the companies?

From the role and the country you give, it finds companies where people in that role work. You see them before anything else happens and keep only the ones you want.

Who receives my email?

The managers you pick in each company, usually the head of the team you would join, at a work email Candiwize has checked. You see who they are before anything is written.

Do I have to approve every introduction?

Yes. Each one waits in the app until you read it, edit it if you like, and approve it; only then does it leave your Gmail.

Will my current employer find out?

No. Your search is private. Candiwize never posts anything publicly and never contacts your current employer. It only emails the people you choose, from your own inbox, where only you can see it.
