What's new
A running log of features, improvements and fixes as we ship them.
- New
Free instant CV check, one-click CV matches & a sharper Sunday roundup
- The CV checker page now has a free instant check — paste your CV or choose a PDF/Word file and get a quick score and the fixes to make first. No signup, and your CV never leaves your browser.
- After a CV review, your matched schemes now sit right under your score, with one button to track the top three.
- Your latest CV matches now show on your dashboard too, ready to track in one click.
- Inviting friends is now about sharing the free CV checker — send it on WhatsApp or copy a ready-made message. You both still get a month of Pro when they sign up.
- The Sunday roundup now leads with schemes on your own Wishlist that close within 7 days, with a one-click 'Mark as Applied' link.
- New
Public pages for every UK graduate scheme
- Every scheme in the database now has its own public page — what the programme involves, skills to show, how recruitment usually works and a link to the employer's official careers site.
- New 'UK graduate schemes A–Z' directory, grouped by sector, linked from the footer.
- Signed in? Add any scheme to your tracker straight from its page. New here? Pick a scheme, sign up, and it's pre-selected in your first-schemes picker.
- Improved
A reason to come back: weekly scheme roundups & a smarter dashboard
- Everyone is now set up for scheme alerts from day one — onboarding asks which sectors you're targeting, and you can change or switch them off any time in Settings.
- Weekly personalised scheme roundup (Sunday evening) covering new listings and anything closing soon that isn't already on your tracker. No matches means no email.
- New day-3 nudge showing the graduate deadlines closing soonest if your tracker is still empty.
- Re-engagement emails now reach every inactive user, with copy that adapts to whether you have applications, a CV on file, or neither.
- Dashboard opens with a 'Since your last visit' summary: schemes that opened, schemes closing within seven days, and your own deadlines in the next fortnight.
- New early re-engagement email for users who haven't returned after 7 days and have no applications, pointing them to live schemes with the nearest deadlines.
- Dashboard now bridges CV users with no applications straight back to their matched schemes, so a high ATS score turns into a tracked application.
- Homepage SEO refined so the dedicated graduate scheme tracker page ranks for its target keyword instead of competing with the homepage.
- New guide: 'When Do Graduate Schemes Open? A Month-by-Month UK Calendar'.
- New
Referrals, smarter scheme database & automated deadline nudges
- Referral programme: invite a friend and you both get one free month of Pro access. Rewards stack and never downgrade an active paid subscription.
- Scheme database now shows live status badges (Open / Closing Soon / Closed) and a 'last verified' timestamp, plus new filters for sector, location, degree, grade, visa sponsorship and work mode.
- Automated deadline reminders: get one email five days before a tracked application closes, with a direct link back to your tracker.
- Daily new-scheme digest: opt in to a single 9am email whenever new graduate schemes match your saved sector, location and scheme-type preferences.
- One-off CV re-check nudge for users who haven't logged in for 21 days, with a simple opt-out in Settings.
- Stripe Checkout for Pro and University subscriptions, plus an internal product-analytics dashboard to see how features are being used.
- More realistic, evidence-based AI CV reviews: recommendations now cite your actual CV details and won't push elite-tier roles unless your profile genuinely supports them.
- New
Guides section & sharper tool-page SEO
- New Guides section at /blog with three in-depth reads: the 2026 UK graduate scheme calendar, a situational judgement test playbook, and a first-year spring weeks guide.
- Guides now linked from the main nav so they're one click away.
- Rewritten page titles, meta descriptions and Open Graph tags on the graduate scheme tracker, CV ATS checker and assessment centre prep pages — every free tool is now indexable against the searches candidates actually type.
- Structured data (SoftwareApplication, FAQ, Blog, BlogPosting, BreadcrumbList) across landing, guides and tool pages for richer Google results.
- New
Contact form, changelog & privacy-friendly analytics
- New Contact page linked from the footer for bug reports and questions.
- This changelog — a running log of what's shipping.
