How It Works
How Your Managed Job Search Works
A dedicated campaign manager runs your entire job search — from strategy and targeting to personalized outreach and offer negotiation. Here’s exactly what happens, phase by phase.
Human-Led, Not Automated
Archer Careers is a fully managed job search service, not an auto-apply tool. Every application is researched, positioned, and reviewed by a real person. Your campaign manager is your single point of contact — they orchestrate the sourcing team, manage strategy, and communicate with you through the Onyx Portal throughout the engagement.
Tools like Scale.jobs or Simplify blast generic applications at volume. We do the opposite: surgical targeting of high-fit roles with individually positioned materials for each company.
The Six Phases of Your Campaign
Onboarding
Days 1–3You complete the Job Search Brief: career goals, target roles, industries, geography, compensation expectations, and any deal-breakers. This is the foundation your campaign is built on.
Career Blueprint
Days 3–5Your campaign manager develops a strategic targeting framework — the companies, functions, and levels your applications will target. You review and approve it in the Onyx Portal before anything else begins.
Profile Optimization
Days 5–10Resume and LinkedIn optimization. Your materials are rewritten for ATS compatibility, keyword alignment, and role-specific positioning. You review and approve each document before it's used.
Active Campaign
Every month, ongoingApplications deploy daily, Monday through Friday — individually positioned applications every month. Every application is researched, positioned, and reviewed by a real person. Your campaign manager monitors performance, adjusts targeting, and communicates through the Onyx Portal.
