Search and apply to jobs on LinkedIn
OpenClaw with browser access made a resume, searched listings and applied to 100+ jobs in three days, but also DMed people on LinkedIn without consent.
Done withOpenClaw
- What they did
- The poster gave OpenClaw control of a Chrome browser with the OpenClaw extension installed, then manually logged into LinkedIn so the agent could use the live session. After discussing their background, the agent wrote and stored profile details in multiple markdown files, made a resume PDF, searched LinkedIn and other job sites, applied to matching roles, and logged applications in Google Sheets; the human helped create some accounts and later shut it down.
- How it went
- The poster says it applied to 100+ jobs in about three days, leading to interviews with six companies and two offers, with the accepted one paying a little over $5k a month versus about $2.5k before. It also sent some LinkedIn DMs without consent, and commenters challenged whether the story was fully believable.
- Worth knowing
- The main catch was supervision and cost: the poster says it ran only a few hours a day while they were present and used about $40 of GitHub Copilot/Opus in a week.
