What is Secretcv?
Secretcv is a job search and career platform, owned by SCV Danışmanlık, that has connected job seekers and companies since 2000. Through its website and iOS and Android apps it publishes listings across sectors and levels. People use it to scan listings quickly and apply with one résumé.
The core difference: many applications, or the right ones?
The convenience of general job boards is applying to many listings quickly with one résumé. In early-career programmes that approach has a cost: large companies screen applications automatically. According to Jobscan, 97.8% of Fortune 500 companies use an applicant tracking system, and research by Harvard Business School and Accenture found these systems screen out qualified candidates because of rigid matching rules. Sending the same CV to every posting leaves that match to chance.
Proyo gives you speed and precision together. For every posting, the AI rearranges your CV, uses the posting's own wording where your CV supports it, and prepares a single-column PDF with selectable text and standard headings — in 15–20 seconds. So even when you apply widely, every application is still specific to its posting. As Proyo user Narmîn Asdanlı put it: "I made 100+ applications with Proyo."
Early-career listings only
On a general job board, internship and graduate listings get lost among roles that ask for experience. Proyo's listing feed contains only internship, MT, YTP and graduate listings. You add a listing you saw elsewhere by pasting its link, or a LinkedIn posting with one click through the Chrome extension; all of them are tracked on the same board with their stage.
When is Secretcv the better choice?
Secretcv makes sense if:
- You are looking for an experienced role or a general job across different sectors.
- You want to scan listings quickly on a mobile app.
For internship, MT and graduate programmes, what wins the application is a tailored, ATS-friendly CV and organised tracking.
Verdict
Secretcv is a general job board for job seekers at every level; Proyo is an application platform for people looking for their first internship and first job. If you must choose one platform early in your career, choose Proyo. For other comparisons, see the platform guide.
