What it is
Applying is a second job with worse hours: read the posting, re-cut the resume so the right nouns surface, fill the form, repeat until hired. The desk takes that job. A human reads each posting against your background, tailors your resume to it the way Class 42 taught — mechanism, consequence, proof — and submits on your behalf, up to ten applications a week. No model writes your resume; a person does, because screeners are people and the difference reads.
- You provide
- Your base resume, links to your portfolio repositories, target roles and locations, salary floor, and any constraints — work authorisation, remote-only, notice period. One intake form, kept current by you.
- The desk does
- Finds and reads postings that fit, tailors the resume per posting, files the application, and keeps a weekly ledger — what was applied to, with which resume version, and any responses that arrived at the desk. Once a month it also runs a mock interview with the instructor, against the Class 42 drills.
- You still do
- The interviews, the follow-ups, and the decisions. No one can rehearse Class 42's ninety seconds for you — and no honest service claims otherwise.
The price, plainly
- Price
- $349 a month, the founding rate — 8 seats. Cancel any month; no placement fees, no percentage of salary, no other charges exist.
- The rate
- Your rate never rises while your membership stays active. Lapsed memberships rejoin at the current rate. The catalogue is untouched by any of this — every class, drill, and exam is free, and stays free.
When to start it, honestly: once you have portfolio work to point at — roughly week six, after Phase One and Build I are public on your GitHub. A tailored resume with nothing behind it is a well-dressed empty claim; the desk works best when Class 42's "repositories prove" line is true of you. Starting earlier buys volume without substance, and we will say so at intake.
What happens after you sign
You put your email down (below). Nothing is charged at this step.
You receive a confirmation email with the intake form — resume, portfolio links, targets, constraints.
Payment is arranged from that email — by reply, not by stored card, until proper billing ships.
First tailored submissions go out within three business days of your completed intake; the weekly ledger follows every week after.
