RS Works

For workforce nonprofits

Help More Jobseekers Get Hired. Without Burning Out Your Team.

Serve more people without adding counselors. Get resume formatting off the appointment so the hour can go to coaching.

PathFinder career plan with archetype, pay range, and roles the jobseeker already qualifies for

The Challenge

More jobseekers to support. More competition to outmatch.

Caseloads keep growing. Employers got more selective. Counselors still spend hours formatting resumes, and directors still have to show funders what the caseload produced.

3+ Hrs

Staff time spent per jobseeker

A tailored resume, cover letter, and interview prep still take 3+ hours per jobseeker. Multiply that across a growing caseload and coaching time disappears right as openings get more competitive.

33%

Applications meet basic requirements

Only 1/3 of documents produced by workforce teams meet the standards employers and ATS systems require. Jobseekers are leaving coaching appointments with materials that often never get a look.

150

Average caseload per counselor

The number of jobseekers each counselor is supporting keeps growing while staffing stays flat. And the increased pool of candidates is competing for fewer vacancies in a more crowded market.

Questions from workforce programs

What directors and supervisors ask before they roll this out

How does this help a team already over caseload?

Resume, cover letter, and interview prep leave the appointment. Counselors keep the hour for coaching, barriers, and employers. Programs have cut resume-prep time by about 75%, which is how you serve more people without adding FTE.

Does this replace career counselors?

No. Staff still review output and sit with the people who need a human. The platform takes document prep off the calendar so the caseload math works.

Will funders treat this as a real career-services tool?

Staff reporting shows who is using the tools, what they produced, and progress toward employment-ready materials. Public partners use that activity alongside WIOA case systems. Bring your funder reporting list to a demo and we will map fields.

How do we roll this out without a big IT project?

Most community-based programs are live in one to two weeks: accounts, a staff training, and participant access. If you later want a case-management connection, we scope that separately with your IT.

What does it cost for a community-based program?

We price by seats and how many people you support. Small programs are usually in the low thousands per year. No public checkout. We will quote your caseload.
