FAQ
Lightning Job Search helps you launch better job searches faster. Here are the answers to the most common questions.
What is Lightning Job Search?
Lightning Job Search is a set of tools that helps you find job postings faster by generating optimized LinkedIn and Google searches. Instead of manually filtering and refreshing, you launch targeted searches designed to surface new listings sooner.
Does this apply for jobs for me?
No. We don’t apply to jobs, send messages, or post on your behalf. Lightning Job Search helps you discover listings faster and get you to the right search results in one tap.
Is this affiliated with LinkedIn or Google?
No. Lightning Job Search is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by LinkedIn or Google.
How does “real-time” LinkedIn search work?
LinkedIn exposes search parameters that can be used to focus on very recent postings and specific filters. Lightning Job Search helps you generate those searches quickly so you can check new listings without reinventing the wheel.
Is this just a list of links?
It’s more than a link list. Lightning Job Search helps you build searches with the right filters, keywords, and exclusions so results are tighter, faster, and more repeatable. Many users save a few searches and re-run them daily in seconds.
What do I get when I unlock?

Do you offer subscriptions?
Yes. We may offer both one-time purchase options and subscription plans. Available plans, pricing, and included features are shown at checkout.
Can I cancel a subscription?
Yes. You can cancel anytime to stop future renewals. Your subscription benefits remain active through the end of your current billing period.
Do you offer refunds?
Because Lightning Job Search is a digital product with immediate access, purchases are generally non-refundable unless required by law. If you believe you were charged in error (for example, a duplicate charge), contact us and we’ll help.
Will using this get my LinkedIn account banned?
Lightning Job Search does not ask for your LinkedIn password and does not scrape LinkedIn on your behalf. It generates searches that you run in your own browser. You are responsible for your use of third-party platforms and for following their rules.
What roles does this work best for?
It works well for most roles, especially competitive ones where speed matters: software engineering, product, design, data, marketing, sales, operations, and more. The biggest benefit is consistently finding new postings quickly, then applying early.
Do I need to install anything?
No. Lightning Job Search runs in your browser. There’s nothing to download.
Can I use this on mobile?
Yes. It’s designed to work on mobile and desktop so you can launch searches wherever you are.
How do I get the best results?
- Pick 2–4 job titles you actually want
- Add 3–6 keyword variations (tools, tech, industry terms)
- Use exclusions to remove irrelevant results
- Save a few searches and run them daily
- Apply quickly when you see a match
