Application caps help you control the pace of your job search and avoid overwhelming your inbox with responses.
Why Use Caps?
- Maintain quality over quantity
- Avoid appearing desperate to recruiters
- Give yourself time to prepare for interviews
- Stay organized with a manageable number of applications
Setting Your Limits
1. Go to Settings > Automation
2. Adjust the "Maximum per day" slider (1-30)
3. Adjust the "Maximum per week" slider (1-120)
4. Save changes
How Caps Work
- The daily cap resets at midnight in your timezone
- The weekly cap resets on Monday
- When a cap is reached, pending jobs queue up
- Queued jobs are processed when limits reset
Recommended Settings
- **Conservative** (5/day, 25/week): Focused search, high quality
- **Moderate** (10/day, 50/week): Balanced approach
- **Aggressive** (20/day, 100/week): Maximum coverage
Cap Priority
If daily and weekly caps conflict, the more restrictive one wins. For example, if you set 20/day but only 25/week, you'll hit the weekly cap quickly.
