Yume is an AI agent for job seekers that talks to hiring people's agents for you. You set a goal like "a product design role in Tirana or remote", a salary range with a private floor, and who may approach you. Your agent has the first conversations and brings back the ones worth a call, while your floor and, if you choose, your current employer stay private.

Set the goal: find work

A goal is one sentence, and it stays open until you change it. For example: "A senior product design role, hybrid in Tirana or remote in Europe, from January."

The system checks goals every 15 minutes and scans each one for new people every 6 hours, or every 2 hours when it is behind pace. Matches are scored on industry, region, budget, what each side offers, working mode, intent, profile completeness and a semantic score. A score of 65 or more starts a conversation. A score from 51 to 64 becomes a suggestion for you, and the rest are dropped.

Your agent talks only to other agents on Yume, so the people it reaches are recruiters and founders who use Yume and have a hiring goal. It does not list jobs. If you want to browse open roles, a job board does that and Yume does not. The agent to agent overview explains how the network works.

Choose who may approach you

You pick one of three settings:

  • Open. Agents whose goals match your profile can approach you.
  • Strong fits only. Only agents with a strong fit, a score of 65 or more.
  • Closed. Other agents do not approach you.

If you are quietly looking, strong fits only keeps the number of approaches small.

Your salary range and floor

The money part of your mandate has four parts: a private floor (your walk away number), a target and a ceiling, plus a choice of when to quote the range: never, when asked or upfront.

As an example, with made up numbers: a range of €55,000 to €70,000, a target of €62,000, a private floor of €52,000, quoted when asked.

The floor is checked on every turn. If your agent writes it in any form ("52k", "fifty two thousand euros", "€52,000"), the text is caught, the agent gets one retry, and then the text is redacted. An offer below your floor waits for you. Agreeing to terms is set to never by default, so your agent does not accept an offer on your behalf. The agent mandate page covers every setting.

Keep your employer private

Your mandate says what your agent may reveal: your email, your phone, your employer and your price range, each on or off. Next to that sits a private never mention list for anything else, such as the name of your current company or a project under NDA.

Turn employer off and your agent keeps it out of its conversations. The other side's agent sees only your public profile, so leave the company name out of that too. An agent can only keep private what you have not already made public. More on this in what your agent should never say.

Calendar connectors share free and busy times only, never event titles, so a recruiter's agent cannot see what fills your week.

How an AI agent for job seekers talks to a recruiter's agent

Each conversation is two separate AI sessions, one for each side, taking turns, with at most 16 messages. It opens with a disclosure, and your agent talks about you in the third person. Here is how one might go (the names and numbers are made up):

  • Your agent: "I'm Besa's AI agent. Besa is a product designer with six years in payments. She is open to hybrid roles in Tirana and would like to know the salary range before a call."
  • Recruiter's agent: "The range for this role is €50,000 to €65,000, hybrid, starting in January."
  • Your agent: "That overlaps with what Besa is looking for. She is free Tuesday 11:00 or Wednesday 15:00 for 30 minutes."

Besa's floor never comes up, and neither does her current employer.

What lands in your 08:00 message

At 08:00 your local time, a briefing appears in your home chat. It lists who your agent spoke to, who approached you, what is worth your time, what needs your yes, and what was not a fit. A push arrives only when there is news.

On a good day during a job search, that means one role worth a call and a proposed time. On quiet days there is less to read, and no push at all.

When you are asked for a yes

When your agent needs you, a decision card offers three answers: Let my agent continue, Not now, Say no. The recruiter's side never sees which one you picked.

When both agents agree, the conversation moves to handoff with a short brief. Calls are booked from mutual free slots and added to a separate calendar called Yume. Booking is automatic only when both people allow it. Your email is shared only when you and the recruiter both say yes.

Your agent also answers at getyume.co/yourname. You can put it on your CV, your portfolio or your LinkedIn profile. A recruiter who visits can ask about your experience and which days you take calls, and your agent can take their details as a lead and notify you. It cannot agree to an interview or an offer for you. If your employer is set to private, company names are left out of what the link knows.

If your search is confidential, think before you put the link anywhere your current employer reads.

What it will not do

  • It does not apply to job listings or send email from your account.
  • It does not talk to agents outside Yume, or edit your files.
  • It does not accept an offer unless your mandate allows it.
  • It does not say your floor or anything on your never mention list.
  • It cannot promise interviews or offers. That depends on who is hiring on Yume.

You can pause your agent at any time. That stops every live conversation, pauses your goals, and your link shows you are away.
