Jobright alternatives for job seekers in the UK, Europe and Canada
Jobright lists US roles only. If you're looking for work in London, Berlin, Amsterdam, Dublin, Toronto or anywhere outside the US, here are the tools that actually have roles for you, what each one does and what it costs.
Mário Rodrigues IdealJob
Jobright is good at what it does. It matches roles to your CV, explains each score and helps you tailor your application, and a co-founder said in October 2026 that it passed $10 million in yearly revenue. But it describes itself as listing US roles only. If you're in London, Berlin, Amsterdam, Dublin, Paris, Lisbon or Toronto, that's the problem, not the product.
I build IdealJob, one of the alternatives below. Every price and claim comes from each tool's own pages or a named source, read in early November 2026.
Why people look for an alternative
Reviewers outside the US have written that "the countries are limited", and others that the roles shown didn't match where they could work. Matching only helps when the list it matches against includes your city.
The alternatives
| Tool | What you get | Countries | Free | Paid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IdealJob | Roles matched to your CV every morning, with the reasons, roles that ask for too many years left out, visa sponsor marks | Europe, UK, Canada, US and more | Yes | $9.99 a month |
| The most roles and recruiters, searching in plain words | Almost everywhere | Yes | Premium Career about $29.99 to $39.99 a month | |
| Indeed | Volume and a free career coach (Career Scout in the US, UK and Australia) | Almost everywhere | Yes | Free for job seekers |
| Teal | Resume builder and tracker, no job list of its own | Anywhere | Yes | About $13 a week |
IdealJob
The closest to Jobright outside the US. Every morning it sends the open roles that fit your CV, read from employers' own career pages and the boards people use, and it leaves out roles that ask for more years than you have. You can also ask for roles in plain words, like "graduate data roles in Dublin that are hybrid". It marks roles from employers on the UK and Dutch visa sponsor registers, and flags postings that look like talent pools or reposts rather than real openings.
It's free to start, Premium is $9.99 a month, and students with a confirmed university email in Europe, the US and Canada get two months of Premium free.
Still the biggest source of roles and the place recruiters look. Its search now understands plain sentences, free for every member. Use it alongside a matching tool, not instead of one. Our post on whether LinkedIn Premium is worth it covers the paid plan.
Indeed
Huge volume in most countries and free for job seekers. Its Career Scout coach is available in the US, the UK and Australia. Expect more noise than a matching tool, and check how old a posting is before applying.
If you need visa sponsorship
This is where a US tool helps least. In the UK, only employers on the government's register of licensed sponsors can sponsor a Skilled Worker visa, and only for roles at degree level. In the Netherlands, the employer must be a recognised sponsor with the IND. A tool that marks those employers saves you from applying to roles that can never hire you. See UK visa sponsorship jobs by role.
Which one to use
- Outside the US and want a short daily list. IdealJob, with LinkedIn for volume.
- You need a visa. A tool that marks sponsor registers, and apply in the first week a role is open.
- In the US. Jobright is a fair choice, and our comparison of IdealJob and Jobright goes through the differences.
