Research relevant jobs and apply to them automatically
The poster says their ChatGPT agent researches jobs relevant to them, applies to them, and edits bullet points per job based on prior applications. ·
Done withChatGPT
- What they did
- The Reddit post itself is just a screenshot claiming ChatGPT researches relevant jobs and applies to them. In the comments, one person describes the concrete workflow: they started from a resume template they already liked, had ChatGPT clean it up and update skills, rewrote bullet points for each job using prior applications as references, and later had it find listings on recruiter sites and draft cover letters; the person still reviewed and used their own template.
- How it went
- That commenter says they got laid off at the end of August, started a new job on October 7, had about 24 interviews in roughly a month, and believes the approach helped them get on callback lists. Other commenters warn that fully automatic applications can hallucinate experience or get you blacklisted.
- Worth knowing
- The clearest catch from the thread is not to trust fully automatic applying without review, because commenters say AI can invent work history and some employers only accept one application every 12–24 months.
Try it yourself with ChatGPT
Find [number] open [job title] roles in [location or remote] that match my background in [short summary or attached resume]. For each, adjust my resume bullet points to fit the posting, using only things that are true and reusing wording from my earlier applications that worked: [paste prior versions]. Fill out each application but stop and show me the final resume and answers before submitting anything. Finish with a list of the jobs, links, and status.
