A CV alone does not send an application
Once you receive the CV file, you still open each company, create an account on its hiring system, fill in the form, and submit. Emailing HR is still on you too. The product you pay for stops at the file [1][2][3].
What does Badali do with your CV?
Badali uploads the CV in your profile with every application, and fills in and submits the application on the company's own hiring system, such as Oracle, Workday, SuccessFactors, Workable, Manatal, Zoho Recruit, Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Recruitee, Teamtailor, Breezy and Pinpoint. It emails the companies you choose by industry, and you see the status of each: delivered, bounced, or replied.
If you want to write your own CV so hiring systems read it correctly, read the ATS CV guide.
