1. Good&Co

Considering a change of scenery for the new year? If so, these 10 job-hunting, gig-landing, and networking apps are for you.

First up is Good&Co, which uses personality quizzes to help you find the right job match. If you’ve ever used the dating app OKCupid, which is famous for its quizzes, Good&Co will feel familiar.

Linking your Good&Co profile with LinkedIn will pair you with companies that have a corporate culture that matches your personality, at least according to their metrics.

Good&Co is available for iOS and Android.

7. CareerBuilder Job Search

​9. Rake - Job Search Simplified

​9. Rake - Job Search Simplified

Rake has features that make it more of a job search hub. When you save a job, either in the app, via the iOS sharing option, or with the Chrome extension, it creates a to-do list and allows you to make notes and sort jobs by different categories or statuses.

It’s an impressive app if you want to stay organized during your job search. In fact, it can easily supplement other apps on this list as well as work alone.

You can only get Rake on iOS right now–sorry Android users.
