What a 2-Month Soft Launch Taught Me About Visa Job Searching
I've been quietly building JobGlance for a while.
There was no big announcement. No Product Hunt launch. No paid marketing.
I only mentioned it casually on my YouTube and TikTok—mostly to share what I was building and why.
But after looking at the numbers from the past two months, I honestly had to pause.
The impact surprised me more than I expected.
So I want to share what happened—and why it says a lot about how broken global job searching still is.
The Reality of Visa Job Searching (Before JobGlance)
If you've ever searched for jobs abroad, you probably know this frustration:
- Visa sponsorship is rarely stated clearly
- You end up opening dozens of job posts just to find one relevant role
- Platforms like LinkedIn, Indeed, or Glassdoor don't let you filter properly
- You waste hours reading posts that were never an option for you
Finding 2–3 visa-sponsored jobs in a single day can already feel like a win.
That pain point is exactly what JobGlance was built for.
Soft-Launch Results: 2 Months of Real Usage
Even without a formal launch, here's what happened in just two months:
- 15,000+ job posts analyzed by real users
- 1,100+ visa-sponsored jobs identified
- Coverage across 38 countries, from the US to Europe to Australia
These aren't scraped demo numbers.
These are real job posts users were already browsing—analyzed automatically as they scrolled.
What stood out to me most wasn't just the volume, but the time saved.
Instead of manually opening every post and searching for visa clues, users could instantly skip roles that were never relevant in the first place.
Why This Works: Job Search Without the Guesswork
The key difference is where the analysis happens.
JobGlance doesn't require you to:
- Switch platforms
- Upload data to unknown servers
- Learn a new job board
It works directly inside the job sites you already use.
As you browse, it extracts and analyzes job descriptions in real time—so you can focus only on roles that actually match your situation.
What JobGlance Does (In Plain Terms)
Resume Match Analysis
Instantly estimates how well your resume matches a job post, so you know where to prioritize your effort.
Visa & Remote Detection
Automatically detects visa sponsorship signals and work policies (remote, hybrid, onsite) without you scanning every paragraph.
Works Across the Web
Built-in support for major platforms like LinkedIn and Indeed, plus smart extraction that works on almost any company career page.
One-Click Job Tracking
Save jobs from different sites into a single dashboard to manage applications and notes in one place.
Privacy-First by Design
No resume storage. No personal data tracking.
You don't even need to create an account—I don't know who searches for what.
Completely Free
No paywalls. No "free trial" traps. Just a tool meant to help.
Why I Built This in the First Place
JobGlance came directly from my own experience job hunting internationally last year.
I wanted the tool I wished existed back then—something that respected time, privacy, and the reality of visa constraints.
Seeing people actually save hours and uncover opportunities they would've missed has been the most rewarding part so far.
If You're Searching Globally Right Now
If you're:
- Looking for visa-sponsored roles
- Exploring remote opportunities across borders
- Tired of reading job posts that go nowhere
You can give JobGlance a try!
I'm genuinely rooting for everyone pushing for the life they want.
What's Next?
This was just a soft launch.
I'll be sharing a deeper breakdown of features and data insights once everything is fully ready.
Still polishing a few things behind the scenes 😅
