Submission control
JobscanJobscan says every application field can be reviewed and edited, and nothing is submitted without the candidate's approval.
LifeShackPreferences, pause controls, application tracking, and company blocklists. Applications are sent without per-application review or approval. Only supported applications can be completed; keep preferences and candidate information accurate. Paid resume tailoring is listed on Ultimate and Elite, not Professional. Pausing applications does not cancel billing or recall work already in progress.
