Insights

See the pattern behind your applications

A single check tells you whether one job fits. Insights tells you what repeats across all of your evaluations - and therefore what to work on.

After a handful of job checks the answers are already there: which role type you score best on, where your applications stall, and which gap shows up in almost every check. Insights adds up what your checks produced anyway. It queries nothing new and stores nothing extra.

Insights sits behind the login and reads only your own evaluations. Your first job check is free, no payment details.

What Insights reads out of your evaluations

Example view

  • Where your applications stand right now
  • Your average across everything
  • Which role type actually suits you
  • The gap that keeps coming back

Four pictures made of numbers, all from the same source: the evaluations your job checks produced. Insights counts, groups and averages - nothing else happens here.

  1. Check jobs

    Every job check creates an evaluation: an overall score, the role type detected in the posting, and the gaps between your profile and the job.

  2. Keep the stages current

    In the Application Tracker each application moves through the columns - from evaluated via applied to interview, offer or rejection.

  3. Read the pattern

    Insights lays both on top of each other and shows what repeats: distribution, average, strongest role type, most frequent gaps.

What Insights reads out of your evaluations

Four pictures made of numbers, all from the same source: the evaluations your job checks produced. Insights counts, groups and averages - nothing else happens here.

  1. Where your applications stand right now

    The funnel counts your entries per stage: evaluated, applied, replied, interview, offer, rejected, dropped, skipped. A pile that keeps growing at "applied" tells a different story than one that breaks off at "replied". Side by side you see the difference at once; in your head, never.

  2. Your average across everything

    Every check awards an overall score from 1 to 5. Insights averages that across all evaluations that carry a score. A low average means you are applying too broadly. A high average with no replies means the opposite - the shortlist is not the problem.

  3. Which role type actually suits you

    Every check detects a role type from the posting. Insights groups your evaluations by it and puts count and average score side by side, most frequent first. Wherever the average is highest, your profile fits best - that is the direction worth more applications.

  4. The gap that keeps coming back

    Every check lists what is missing between your profile and the posting. Insights counts those points across all evaluations and shows the most frequent ones, up to ten, the most frequent on top. Capitalisation is ignored, so identically named gaps end up in the same bucket.

Every check awards an overall score from 1 to 5. Insights averages that across all evaluations that carry a score. A low average means you are applying too broadly. A high average with no replies means the opposite - the shortlist is not the problem.

The data is not created in Insights but in the job check: with no checked postings, the cards stay empty.

You keep the stage of each application current in the Application Tracker - it fills exactly the columns the funnel counts.

A gap that shows up three times is no longer chance, it is a topic. What you can do about it is over at courses and training.

Competition radar: who else applies for your role

The second part of the page looks outward. You enter a target occupation plus a location and a radius - both are prefilled if they are in your master profile. The query goes to the Bewerberboerse of the Bundesagentur fuer Arbeit, the public applicant directory of the German federal employment agency.

  1. Target occupation, location, radius

    One search term is enough. The radius goes from 10 to 200 kilometres; without a location the query runs nationwide. What comes back first is a single number: how many applicant profiles are currently after the same thing as you.

  2. What skills the others bring

    From the most recent profiles in the result list, up to a hundred of them, the radar counts the most frequent expert skills and shows them as bars, up to twelve. Every row is marked against the skills in your master profile: "you have this" or "you are missing this". This list is not on display anywhere else.

  3. How much experience sits in the field

    One bar splits the same sample into three groups: under three years, three to seven, over seven. That tells you whether this field reads you as a newcomer or as an experienced hand - and how much room your next step has.

  4. What job titles people search under

    Finally the most frequent job titles from the same sample, up to five. They hint at what your role is really called - and which word you want to be found under yourself.

Only the aggregate ever leaves the server: numbers, frequencies, distributions. Individual applicant profiles, reference numbers or contact details are not in the response in the first place. Up to ten queries per hour are possible, after that the server slows you down.

Audience

Who Insights pays off for

Insights is not a tool for your first application. It becomes useful the moment you have checked enough for something to repeat. Before that it shows empty cards, and that is more honest than a number built on two data points.

  1. You have been applying for weeks

    Many applications, few replies, and no clear idea what is going wrong. The funnel shows where it breaks off instead of leaving you to guess.

  2. You are unsure about the direction

    Two or three role types are on the table and you spread your applications across them. The table by role type tells you where your profile scored best in the checks.

  3. You want to know what to learn

    Training costs time, so the right one is worth finding. The most frequent gaps and the skills of your competition together add up to a fairly concrete list of what your field asks for.

  3. You want to know what to learn

The funnel counts your entries per stage: evaluated, applied, replied, interview, offer, rejected, dropped, skipped. A pile that keeps growing at "applied" tells a different story than one that breaks off at "replied". Side by side you see the difference at once; in your head, never.

With no evaluations it stays empty

Insights invents nothing. As long as there are no checked jobs, the counters sit at zero and the gap card says that no recurring gaps were found. The more checked postings behind it, the more the picture holds. We do not give you a minimum count, because there is none.

Limits

What Insights does not do

Four limits that belong on this page rather than in a footnote.

  1. No forecast, no success rate

    Insights counts what happened. It calculates no probability, predicts no interview and puts up no rate. What you make of the numbers stays your call.

  2. Your own data only

    Nothing is compared against other users. Funnel, average, role types and gaps come exclusively from your own evaluations. The one look outward is the competition radar, and that queries a public official source.

  3. The aggregation asks no model

    Counting, grouping, averaging - that needs no AI, and Insights calls none. The AI work happened earlier, inside the individual checks. Opening Insights therefore costs you no check.

  4. No export, no notification

    There is no report to download and no mail that sends you a monthly summary. Insights is a page you open when you want to know where you stand.

Frequently asked questions

Where do the numbers in Insights come from?

From your own evaluations. Every job check creates an entry with an overall score, the detected role type and the gaps it found; you keep the stage current in the Application Tracker. Insights reads exactly those entries and computes the funnel, the average, the table by role type and the most frequent gaps from them.

What does Insights cost?

Insights only adds up what is already there and calls no AI to do it. What costs something sits earlier: your first job check is free and needs no payment details, after that the job check is part of Pro. What else Pro includes is on the pricing page.

How does the competition radar know who else is applying?

From the Bewerberboerse of the Bundesagentur fuer Arbeit, a public directory where applicants publish their profile. The radar queries it with your target occupation, your location and the chosen radius and analyses the most recent hits, up to a hundred profiles per query. Up to ten queries per hour are possible.

Do I see individual applicant profiles?

No. The query returns totals only: the number of profiles, the most frequent expert skills, the experience distribution and the most frequent job titles. Individual profiles, reference numbers and contact details are not part of the response. The other way round, your own evaluations stay with you - they are compared against nobody.

How many applications do I need for this to pay off?

There is no fixed number and we are not going to invent one. The funnel works from the first evaluation onward. The table by role type gets interesting once several checks land on the same type, and a gap becomes a topic once it shows up more than once. Until then you see zeros and a note that no recurring gaps were found.

Stop guessing what is going wrong

The answers are already sitting in your evaluations. Insights lays them out side by side: funnel, role types, gaps - and what the competition brings along.
