Rolescout

Rolescout is a web-based job search tool for querying multiple ATS platforms and job boards in one place. It also offers saved searches, saved jobs, and an MCP server for agent-driven searches.

Rolescout

Overview

Rolescout is a job search tool focused on ATS platforms and job boards. It is designed to search listings from sources such as Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, and many other applicant tracking systems in one pass.

The site’s interface centers on role titles, keywords, filters, source selection, saved searches, saved jobs, and an MCP server option for agent-based workflows. That makes it useful both for hands-on job search and for automated searches run from AI tools.

Features

Multi-platform job search

Search across many ATS platforms and job boards from one interface instead of checking each source separately.

Search controls and filters

Filter by role titles, keywords, include or exclude terms, location, result count, and recency to narrow noisy job listings.

Saved searches and saved jobs

Save searches, store jobs in a saved list, and share search presets for repeat workflows.

MCP access for agents

Use the MCP server package from AI tools such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or Cursor with the documented command-based setup.

API-backed search workflow

Send search requests through the documented Serper API key requirement, and choose output behavior such as results, CSV, or both from the MCP tool signatures.

Source selection and coverage controls

Review supported sources directly in the UI, including ATS platforms and job boards, with per-platform selection controls.

Use Cases

  • Cross-ATS job discovery

    Search for a role across multiple hiring systems at once, instead of repeating the same query on each company’s ATS page.

  • Personal job tracking

    Track promising roles by saving them from search results and returning to them later in the saved jobs view.

  • Repeatable role monitoring

    Build a reusable search setup with title filters, keyword rules, and location constraints for repeated searches over time.

  • Agent-assisted job search

    Connect the service to an AI client through MCP when you want an agent to search jobs, list platforms, or validate links on your behalf.

  • Shared search presets

    Share a preset search with someone else so they can reuse the same query structure and filters.
