Done withPerplexity Comet
- What they did
- A Comet browser user told the agent in plain English to apply to marketing jobs on LinkedIn. The agent searched for postings, clicked Easy Apply, filled the forms from the user's profile, answered basic experience and education questions, and submitted. The user left it running and came back afterward. The source is a second-hand summary of a Reddit post.
- How it went
- About 100 applications went out in 40 minutes, but none led to interviews. The agent also marked the user's French as Professional when they could barely speak it.
- Worth knowing
- The agent filled in answers on its own and overstated a qualification, so check the answers it gives before it submits.
