Every application
gets a real answer.
Or your credit is refunded. Koali is a hiring platform where every role has a limited applicant pool, every recruiter is verified, and every candidate receives written feedback within 10 business days.
10 days
Hard caps
100%
Every application
should count.
Candidates put real time and thought into every application. They deserve a real response back. Recruiters need a manageable pool of people who actually want the role, not hundreds of unread CVs from people who applied to everything.
Koali solves both at once. Every role has a hard applicant cap. Everyone in that pool paid to be there. And every recruiter commits to responding to every application within 10 business days. That commitment is enforced, not just hoped for.
What actually happens
when you apply on Koali.
Four steps, nothing hidden. From choosing your plan to getting a written response.
Choose how to apply
Subscribe for a monthly credit allowance or buy a one-time bundle. A subscription gives you a lower per-application rate and rolls over unused credits. One credit is one application.
Apply to a capped role
Every listing has a hard cap on applicant numbers. When it fills, it closes. Your application goes into a small, focused pool rather than a pile of hundreds.
A human reviews your application
Every recruiter on Koali commits to reviewing and responding to every application within 10 business days. That commitment is built into the platform, not just requested.
Feedback or your credit back
You receive a written response from the recruiter. If they miss the 10-day window, your application credit is returned to your Koali account automatically. No chasing, no asking.
100%
Human review.
Every single application.
Every recruiter on Koali signs up to review and respond to every application within 10 business days. Miss the deadline and the candidate gets their credit back. Automatically. No exceptions.
The system enforces it.
Not just good intentions.
Koali's guarantees aren't policy documents. They're built into how the platform operates.
Every applicant
paid to apply.
When candidates pay to apply, only the ones who actually want the role do. Your capped pool arrives motivated and pre-filtered. Flat monthly subscription, no placement fees, automated SLA tracking.
Why do I pay to apply?
The credit is what creates the guarantee. Because you paid, the recruiter is required to respond with written feedback within 10 days. If they don't, your credit comes back automatically. Free job boards have no mechanism to enforce that.
What if the recruiter goes silent?
Our system tracks every deadline. If a recruiter misses the 10-day window, the breach is flagged and your application credit is returned to your Koali account automatically. You don't need to do anything.
How many spots does each role have?
Each recruiter sets their own cap when posting, kept deliberately small. When the cap is reached, the listing closes. You can see remaining spots on every role page.
What does the written response look like?
A real, personalised note. Recruiters are required to either shortlist you or explain their decision. That's the standard every application receives.
