CV Pod

How it works

Four steps, about 20 minutes, on your phone.

  1. Sign in with a link

    Type your email and we send a sign-in link. No password to remember.

  2. Show you're a real person

    An ID photo and a live selfie, about three minutes. Employers only ever see the badge and your verified name.

  3. Record three answers

    About a minute each, video or voice only. You get three takes per question and can preview before you keep one.

  4. Add your CV and proof

    Write it the way you'd say it. Add up to five pieces of proof and ask a former manager to confirm any of them.

  5. Send your link, or apply

    Share cvpod.com/p/your-name anywhere, or apply to pod-only jobs with one click. You can check each employer's reply record first.

  6. See who looked

    Receipts show which company opened your Pod, when, for how long, and which recordings they played. Pause or revoke any link, any time.

CV Pod never scores or judges how you look or sound.

For referees

One claim, one click, no account.

A former manager gets one email with a single-use link that lasts 14 days. They see the candidate's name and one claim. They choose Confirm, Edit wording or Decline. They never see the Pod, and employers never see their email address.

If a referee declines, employers just see “Self-declared”. Only the candidate is told.

What we never do

Three things CV Pod never does.

  • Score, rank or judge people with AI. Applicant lists are ordered only by when people applied.
  • Analyse faces, voices, accents or emotion. Software writes a transcript and nothing else is taken from a recording.
  • Sell candidates anything. There is no paid tier for candidates, and no way to buy a better position.
