How It Works

Upload CV. We write every email. You get interviews.

Five minutes of setup. 200 personalised emails sent for you every month.

The Process

Five steps from CV upload to interview.

1

Upload your CV.

Takes about 2 minutes.

Drop your PDF or Word document. Our parser reads every line — work history, skills, seniority, gaps, industries. You don't fill in any form fields. The CV is the brief.

2

Pick your industries and roles.

Takes about 3 minutes.

Choose from 16 industries and up to 5 target roles. We use these to filter our database of 3,296+ verified company emails down to the companies most likely to want someone with your background.

3

We research every company and write every email.

Happens automatically — usually within an hour of launch.

For each company in your campaign, we read the company name, industry, and your CV together — and write a personalised subject line, opening, and cover letter that pitches the right role for that company. Every email is different. Every email sounds like you.

4

200 emails go out from professional inboxes.

Paced over 5–10 days to protect deliverability.

We send from warmed-up professional inboxes — not a bulk-mail server. Emails land in the primary inbox, not spam. Recruiter reply rates are 21% on average because the emails read like hand-written outreach, not an automated blast.

5

Replies land in your dashboard. You follow up.

Repeat every month until you accept an offer, then cancel.

Every recruiter reply appears in your ShotgunCV dashboard in real time. We flag interview invites automatically. You read the reply, decide how to respond, and send your reply directly from the dashboard — no inbox switching.

Under the Hood

Four things that make the emails work.

Volume is necessary. Personalisation is what makes volume convert. Here's what goes into each email.

Company Research

We look at the company name, industry, and domain — and decide which of your target roles is the most credible fit. If none of your roles plausibly fit, we write a short honest introduction instead of a forced pitch. We never say "for a retail environment like yours" to a restaurant.

CV Matching

We read your full CV — not just the job titles. Specific achievements, years of experience, industry sectors, and technical skills are all used to colour the letter. A candidate with 8 years at Amazon gets a different opening than a recent graduate, even when targeting the same company.

Personalised Opener

Each email has a unique subject line written for that specific company and a 60–90 word opening paragraph that connects your background to what the company probably needs. No two emails in your campaign are the same. Recruiters reply because they can tell it isn't a template blast.

Recruiter-Grade Phrasing

Recruiters are trained pattern-matchers. They spot AI tells and template language in seconds. Our letters are written to pass that pattern-match: active voice, specific numbers, no corporate filler, no hollow superlatives. The cover letter is the part that gets the reply — we treat it that way.
