An AI career coach for software engineers, by a recruiter who hired them.
Generic AI guesses at how engineers get hired. Career-test apps are built for teenagers. Careersy AI is built for software engineers in Australia and New Zealand. In the field or moving into it. By a recruiter who spent 13 years deciding who got shortlisted.
Free to start. No card required.
Good engineers get passed over every day.
It is not your skills. It is your strategy. Recruiters cannot find you. Your CV reads like every other backend dev. You undersell your best work in the system design round. This fixes the three things that keep you off the list.
Three things call themselves a career coach.
One was built by a recruiter. The other two weren’t.
| Generic AI(ChatGPT) | Career-test apps | Careersy AI | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Built for | Everyone. Every task. | School leavers. | Software engineers in ANZ |
| Knows the ANZ market | No. Defaults to the US. | Sort of. Not tech. | Yes. Local pay, employers, 482 visa. |
| Built by a recruiter | No. Guesses off the web. | No. It is a quiz. | Yes. 13 years hiring ANZ tech. |
| Makes things up | Yes. Then you defend it. | N/A | Never. It asks you instead. |
| Covers the whole hunt | One prompt at a time. | Stops at a job suggestion. | Getting found, CV, interview, offer. |
The whole hunt. Not one clever prompt.
See why recruiters can’t find you.
Recruiters use AI to find people now. You might be invisible to it. It shows you why. And the exact lines to fix.
Beat the filter. Then win the human.
Your CV gets read three times. A filter scans for keywords. A recruiter skims for seven seconds. A manager decides if they want you. It checks all three.
Practise the interview first.
It runs system design. Live coding. The behavioural panel for your level. And it pushes on the answers a senior engineer waves through.
Ask for the right number.
It knows what your role pays here. Not in the US. So you ask for the real number. And you hold it.
We know who gets hired in tech. We spent years deciding it. From the hiring side of the table.
This is not a chatbot with a careers prompt. It is the exact method Eli uses with coaching clients. The same recruiter’s eye behind 100+ people hired. They landed roles at AWS and the Big Four. They won five-figure raises. They broke in on a 482 visa. The difference here is simple. You run it on every job. At any hour. For the price of one session.
Built by Eli Gunduz, founder of Careersy Coaching. 13 years hiring in ANZ tech. 5,000+ interviews. 26,000+ resumes read.
It only works with what’s true.
When a line is thin, it does not invent a number to fill the gap. It asks you for the real one. The way a recruiter would. Your CV stays yours. We never show it to employers. We never sell it. Because the fastest way to lose an offer is a claim you can’t back in the room.
Straight answers.
What is an AI career coach for software engineers?
It is a coach that knows how engineers actually get hired. Not generic advice. It reads your CV against the job like a recruiter does. It shows whether recruiters can find you. It practises system design, coding and behavioural rounds for your level. Built for the ANZ market, on the method of a recruiter who shortlisted engineers for 13 years. So you get what teams here screen for. Not what reads well online.
Is an AI career coach actually worth it?
Only if it knows your field. Generic advice is a waste of time. Here is the truth. Most good people do not miss out on skills. They miss out because recruiters cannot find them. Or their CV looks like everyone else. Or they undersell their work in the interview. A coach that fixes those three things is worth it. One that says "be confident" is not.
How is Careersy AI different from ChatGPT?
ChatGPT does everything. So it guesses at hiring. And it makes things up when it runs out of facts. Careersy AI does one thing. The ANZ tech job hunt. It knows what a recruiter screens for. It knows how your CV gets read. It knows what an interview really tests. And it asks you for the truth instead of inventing it.
Can an AI career coach replace a human career coach?
No. And it is not trying to. A human reads the room and keeps you honest. What this replaces is the cost and the wait. You get a recruiter’s read on your CV, your profile and your answers. At 11pm on a Sunday. On every job. For the price of one session. Same playbook. Just faster.
Does it work for the Australian and New Zealand tech market?
Yes. That is the point. It knows the local employers. The local pay. How recruiters here shortlist. And the visa rules that trip people up, including the 482. It is not a US tool with "Australia" bolted on. The method comes from years hiring in ANZ tech.
How much does an AI career coach cost?
It starts at AUD $49 a month. Every tool included. A human tech coach here charges a few hundred dollars a session. This is the same recruiter method. You run it on every job. As often as you want. For a fraction of one session. See the pricing page for plans.
Careersy AI also coaches tech, ai engineers and career changers.
