Pulled fresh every day, straight from company hiring systems
Two postings, both tagged “entry-level.” Only one is real. A keyword alert sends you the wrong one. We catch it before it reaches you.
Titles lie. Our verifier fetches the complete posting from the employer’s own hiring system and checks what it truly requires. If any line demands prior professional experience, it is rejected. Internships, coursework and projects never count against you.
Every day we pull fresh postings straight from company hiring systems: Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday and more. No scraped junk, no dead links, no reposted ghosts.
Titles lie. We read the complete description and reject anything that quietly demands prior professional experience. Internships, coursework and projects never count against you.
Every role we send is burned into your history. Tomorrow’s digest is all new, so you never re-read the same forty listings wondering if you already applied.
No new app to check, no dashboard to babysit. Open your email, see a short list of roles that actually fit, and apply. That is the whole product.
Six role families where the honest zero-experience jobs actually are. We deliberately skip engineering listings, since that market is flooded and well served elsewhere.
A keyword alert cannot tell an “entry-level” title from a role that secretly wants three years. That is the whole difference.

The entry-level job stopped being entry-level.
Over the last few years, the number of postings labeled “entry-level” that actually require two or three years of experience has quietly exploded. New graduates now compete for “junior” roles against people who already have full-time résumés, and the honest zero-experience jobs sit buried under thousands of listings that only pretend to be open to them.
So a new grad sends out a hundred applications, hears nothing, and slowly concludes the problem is them. It is not. The problem is that nobody was reading the fine print for them.
FirstRung reads it. Every morning it pulls thousands of fresh postings straight from company hiring systems, checks each full description for a genuine zero-experience floor, and sends you only the ones that pass. No keyword guessing, no ghost listings, no repeats.
We win when you stop needing us. The whole product is built to get you hired and out, not to keep you subscribed. That is the promise: the first rung, made reachable.
The single most common bait in the market. A title aimed at grads, a description aimed at people who are already hired.
After the fortieth fake listing, we wrote a script to read the full text of every posting and throw out the ones that were lying. The roles that survived were the real ones.
Full-JD verification, zero-experience floor detection, never-repeat history, delivered as one clean email a day.
Genuinely reachable roles, in your inbox, until the day you get the offer and cancel.
Drop your email and we will show you three roles straight from today’s verified pool. The genuine article, no card, no account.
Three truly zero-experience roles, each checked against its full job description, on the house.
One free sample per person. The free weekly list is national and unfiltered; the daily digest, filtered to your city and role, is Pro, $12/mo. We never share your email.
A job hunt has an end date. If subscriptions are not your thing, buy 90 days outright and never think about it again.
Shortlist sizes depend on new verified roles and your filters. Saved applications stay available after access ends.
A weekly report built from our own harvest, short guides for new graduates, and live lists of verified roles.
We fetch the complete job description from the employer’s own hiring system and check what it really requires. If it demands prior professional experience anywhere in the text, not just the title, it is rejected. Internships, coursework and personal projects never count against you.
Business-side entry roles: operations, sales and GTM, data and business analysis, customer success, marketing, and program coordination. We deliberately do not chase software-engineering listings, since that market is flooded and well served elsewhere.
Alerts match keywords in titles. They cannot tell you the “entry-level analyst” role secretly wants three years in consulting, so you learn that only after tailoring a cover letter. We read the whole description first, and we never show you the same job twice.
Email. A clean daily digest with direct links to each real application. No new app to check, nothing to babysit. You set your city, remote preference and role types once, and a dashboard is there when you want to track what you have applied to.
Yes. Pro and Concierge members can manage cancellation from the dashboard. A cancellation scheduled for the end of the billing period keeps access through the paid-through date. The 90-day pass does not auto-renew. Your saved roles and notes remain available after paid access ends.
Pro is $12/month for an ongoing daily search. The $29 pass gives you 90 days of Pro access with one payment and no automatic renewal. Concierge is $39/month for a bigger shortlist and a weekly human reviewer note. Unsure? Start with the free sample.
No. It is an automated product guide, with AI helping match questions to reviewed answers. It cannot access your account or change billing, and it is separate from Concierge’s human reviewer. Email support@firstrung.xyz to speak to a person.
