In your corner

We make the job hunt faster, better informed and far less exhausting, and then look after the job you land.

Three products, one account. Every feature below is tagged Free, On the Move, Your Career or Your Timesheets, or Both paid plans when Career and Timesheets has it as well as On the Move, so you can see where the line sits.

Free while you are between jobs, with no card needed.
Your Job Hunt: every role, its stage, and what it really pays.

Your Job Hunt

In the order a hunt happens: finding a role, running the applications, making each one count, the money, and the parts that only exist in New Zealand. Tagged Free is free while you are between jobs; On the Move adds the rest, with all of Your Career and Your Timesheets, and what is tagged Both paid plans is in Career and Timesheets too.

Stage one

Find it, and work out if it is worth your weekend

Most wasted effort happens before you apply: a role that pays less than yours, an ad four months old, a listing that was never real.

One press from the ad, with our Chrome extension or a bookmark: how it works.

Capture from anywhere

Free

Seek, LinkedIn, Indeed, Student Job Search, ZEIL, a careers page or a job someone sends you: one board.

Estimated take-home pay

Free

The Calculate.co.nz PAYE engine on every job, verified against Inland Revenue's published rates.

Scam check

AI reads the ad for the signs of a job scam, quoting the sentence behind each, with NZ next steps. 1 AI action.

Ghost-job warnings

Free

A warning on any saved listing more than 45 days old.

What the role really pays

Free

When the ad leaves the salary out, the range for that role in your city, where we have the data.

Commute Cost

Free

Fuel, time and parking as what the trip costs you a year.

Try it free, no account needed →
Stage two

Run the applications like a project

Twenty applications, four recruiters, three interview loops: where a spreadsheet stops coping, usually about week two.

A pipeline that matches reality

Free

Saved to Accepted, with full status history. A board, a list or a table.

A separate hunt for each path

Free

HR in Auckland, marketing in Wellington: each its own board, switched in one tap.

Your contacts, remembered

Free

Recruiters, hiring managers and referees, every call logged, with a nudge when a follow-up is due.

Interviews on your calendar

Free

Screens, panels and deadlines, with .ics into Google, Apple or Outlook.

Ghosting, handled

Free

A nudge at seven quiet days, and honest closure at twenty-one.

Insights that coach you

Free

Your funnel, interview rate by source, and where you lose people.

Works offline

Free

On your phone's home screen, it works on the bus with no signal and syncs later.

Stage three

Make the application count

Before you apply, your CV checked against the ad and tailored from experience you have earned. Once they respond, the prep and follow-ups, drafted from what you have logged.

Before you apply

CV Match

How your CV measures up to each ad, requirement by requirement:

  • Clearly shown
  • Partly shown
  • Not shown
  • Found in your other records

Uses 3 AI actions: it reads your whole CV, the whole ad and your records. The free plan keeps the keyword check.

Tailor My CV

Tailor your CV to the job, using only experience you've actually earned. Each change shows its source; you accept, edit or skip it. Saved as a Word file and scored again.

Cover Letter Writer

From your CV and the ad, in New Zealand English, claiming nothing your CV does not back up.

How the letter writer works →

Wins journal

Your Career

A win logged the week you did it becomes your STAR story, pay case and next CV.

Once they respond

Prep packs

Built from your own notes on the company and its people. Not generic advice.

Your top 10 interview questions

The ten this job is most likely to ask, from its ad and your CV, each pointing at your evidence. 3 AI actions.

Company brief

Drawn only from your own ads, notes and debriefs for that employer, never research. 1 AI action.

The three-question debrief

Free

What they pushed on, what you fumbled, what to fix, while it is fresh.

The awkward emails, written

Free

Follow-ups, thank-you notes and reference requests: templates free, AI on On the Move, using no AI actions.

Stage four

Get the money right

The employer holds most of the information. This part puts some of it back.

A $6,000 gap is about $3,700 a year once the tax is done.

The salary story

Free

Advertised, asked, offered, accepted. "You landed 98.7% of your ask."

NZ Offer Analyser

Paste an offer: terms pulled out, estimated take-home worked out, and where there is room.

Side-by-side offer comparison

Any two jobs, after tax, with a verdict on which pays more.

Try the free version →

Negotiation Coach

A script for the money conversation, from your figures and the market range.

Your pay review, planned

Your Career

After you land: your pay after prices, the review six weeks ahead, the case from your wins.

The moat

A layer no global tool will ever build

PAYE, KiwiSaver, stand-downs and Work and Income: the part that only makes sense if you are from here.

Everything you already logged, dated and ready to print.

Work and Income record

Free

On Jobseeker Support you show your job search when asked. What you track becomes that record, dated and printable.

Money runway

Free

Savings, outgoings, your Jobseeker rate and stand-down: how many weeks you have.

Govt Application Kit

For a public-sector job: a selection-criteria checklist and STAR stories from your wins.

Visa mode

Whether each employer is listed as accredited on the INZ register, linked so you can check.

Agency and referee contacts

Who represents you where, double-submission warnings, and referee fatigue tracking.

What it actually pays

A $95,000 job is not $95,000

Every job you track gets this breakdown, at 2026/27 rates, in the pay period you think in. No global tracker works it out.

Looking after the job you have

Your Career

In Career and Timesheets at $4.99 a month billed yearly ($59.88 a year) or $6.99 month to month, GST included, with a 7-day free trial, or in On the Move and an employer seat. Not part of Between Jobs.

A job tracker usually stops at the offer. This one carries on: the dates that matter, your pay after prices, your review planned, and wins that become your case and your next CV.

It starts when you land

Your Career

Mark a job Accepted and it carries across. Already in work? Start from setup.

Your job, and its dates

Your Career

Trial period, six months, a year, each anniversary, with what the law gives you at each.

Your pay over time

Your Career

Every change, the whole package, and what prices have done to it, from Stats NZ.

The pay review, planned

Your Career

Reminders six and two weeks out, then the case, a range and what to say.

Wins and 1:1 notes

Your Career

A line a win, notes from each 1:1: your self-review, promotion case and next CV.

Growth, CPD and certificates

Your Career

Goals and skills, CPD hours, and a reminder before a certificate lapses.

Keep in touch

Your Career

Choose who and how often, and they turn up when it is time.

Life events

Your Career

Parental leave dates, a second job, a yearly KiwiSaver look, the end of the tax year.

If things change

Your Career

A restructure: what consultation means, what your final pay must include, and back to job hunting in one tap.

See Your Career in the demo

Nothing in Your Career is ever shown to an employer, including one that paid for your seat. The notes on your rights are general information, not legal advice.

Keeping the hours you work

Your Timesheets

Logging your hours is free on every plan, Between Jobs included. What is tagged Your Timesheets comes with Career and Timesheets, $4.99 a month billed yearly ($59.88 a year) or $6.99 month to month, or with On the Move, GST included.

Your own record of the hours you work, for an employer, a client or both. Every change is kept, so the record stands up if your pay is ever questioned. A paid plan does the sums: rates, budgets, earnings, invoices and the tax to put aside.

Free on every plan

Every place you work

Free

Each employer or client, both jobs if you have two. Each is in Companies too.

A week grid

Free

7.5 or 7:30, times, breaks and notes; a shift past midnight counts right. Copy last week.

One timer, on any device

Free

Counts on if your phone locks; stops from any device. Today on a phone, with +15m and +1h.

Every change on record

Free

Kept by our server, not only your phone. A change after a week is marked sent says so.

Hours for Work and Income

Free

Each week's hours and pay before tax, in your Work and Income record.

A monthly summary

Free

An email on the 1st with last month's hours. Off until you turn it on.

With Career and Timesheets or On the Move

Yours, not ours

Your data, and how leaving works

Import, export and backup

Free

CSV in, CSV out, and a JSON backup of the lot.

An erase button that works

Free

Everything gone. Only hours you chose to share with a team stay, as that team's own record.

Your Career stays yours

Your Career

Encrypted on our server in Auckland, in your export, erased with your account, and yours when you change employer.

Why jobtracker.co.nz

The tools people look overseas for, and the parts no overseas tool has

A CV match score and a tailored CV are here too, with the New Zealand layer and a career record that keeps going after you are hired.

In short: US trackers score a CV against an ad too, but none knows PAYE or keeps going after you are hired.

Capabilities checked on each vendor's own site on 11 September 2026, and the CV match, tailoring and after-you-are-hired rows on 25 September 2026. What they charge is next.

What the alternatives cost

Three to ten times the price. Not one of them knows what PAYE is.

The US job trackers we checked charge in US dollars, from about US$14 to US$50 a month on their cheapest ongoing plan. That is three to ten times ours, in a currency that is not yours, and none of them tells you what a job pays you here, after tax. Verified on their own published pages on 11 September 2026.

Converted at 1 USD = NZ$1.70, rounded down. The real rate on the day was 1.74, so these understate what the other tools cost you.

How these were read

From each product's own pricing, privacy or terms pages on 11 September 2026, recorded with their sources. Cheapest ongoing plan is the lowest per-month rate, which for some of them means paying months ahead. Head offices come from each product's own privacy policy or, where it publishes no address, its Chrome Web Store trader details. Only US-headquartered trackers whose prices could be verified on their own pages are included.

The boundary

What is free, and what is not

In full, so nobody signs up to find out. Between Jobs is free while you are genuinely between jobs, an honour system with no card. Logging your hours is free on every plan. Three of the free job hunting tools need no account at all.
