JustHireMe is a desktop application for job hunting that runs mostly on your own computer instead of relying on a cloud service. It was built by a solo developer who got frustrated with noisy job boards and closed, unclear AI apply tools, and wanted to make something more transparent and under the user's control. The app collects job postings from many different sources, such as company career pages, job feeds, Hacker News, Reddit style communities, and other configured sources, so you are not stuck relying on a single job board. Before a job listing is saved, it passes through a quality filter that rejects postings that look stale, thin on detail, senior only, unpaid, or otherwise low value, so the pipeline stays cleaner. Once leads pass that filter, JustHireMe ranks how well each job fits your background using a mix of clear, explainable rules and your own resume and project data stored locally, so you can actually see why a job was or was not recommended, rather than trusting an opaque score. It compares job postings against your profile using a graph database and vector search running on your machine. For jobs worth pursuing, the tool can generate a tailored resume as a PDF, a matching cover letter as a PDF, and draft outreach messages such as a cold email or a short note to send a founder or hiring contact, giving you a complete, ready to review package instead of just a list of links. The project is still in an early alpha stage. Its supported core covers scraping, filtering, ranking, and document generation, while a browser automation feature that could auto apply to jobs exists in the code but is experimental and turned off by default. It is built with a Python backend and a desktop shell using Tauri, and it is released under the AGPL 3.0 license.
