When you're applying to several roles a week, take Teal+ for 30 days, or the 90-day option if you expect a longer search, and cancel once you land the job. | Standard covers most small businesses. Start the free trial, which includes the full Enterprise feature set, then buy Standard unless you need texting and video interviews often, in which case Premier works out cheaper than adding them one by one. |
