Mentat will apply for jobs on your behalf and guarantee you get an interview

Mentat is presented as a job-search service for people who want a new job but have not organized themselves to apply, or are too busy to do it. The company takes over LinkedIn and resume optimization, writes cover letters, and has an advisor submit applications by hand.

It also assigns a real advisor for phone, chat, and email support, says it uses machine learning to match candidates with jobs and advisors, and charges $249 for a package that includes a money-back guarantee for at least one interview. It also offers a free tier similar to a traditional job board.
