AI-Powered Automated Job Search & Application
**Unleash the power of AI to automate your job search, tailor your applications, and boost your chances of landing your dream job!** This comprehensive workflow handles everything from finding relevant job postings to generating personalized resumes and cover letters. **Use cases are many:** * **Automate your entire job application process:** Spend less time searching and more time preparing for interviews. * **Tailor your resume and cover letter for every application:** Maximize your ATS compatibility and stand out to recruiters. * **Efficiently track your applications:** Keep all your job search activities organized in one place. * **Discover new job opportunities:** Leverage the Adzuna API to find relevant listings. --- **Good to know:** * **Free Adzuna API:** This workflow utilizes the free Adzuna API, making job search capabilities accessible without initial cost. * **OpenRouter Chat Model Costs:** AI model usage (for resume rewriting and cover letter generation) will incur costs based on the OpenRouter pricing model. Please check OpenRouter's official website for updated pricing information. * **Model Availability:** The AI models used may have geo-restrictions. If you encounter a model not found error, it might not be available in your country or region. --- **How it works:** 1. **Webhook Trigger:** The workflow is initiated via a webhook, allowing you to trigger it manually or integrate it with other systems (e.g., a form submission with your desired job title and resume). 2. **Resume Extraction:** Your uploaded resume (e.g., PDF) is automatically extracted into a readable text format. 3. **Job Search (Adzuna API):** Using the provided job title, the workflow queries the Adzuna API to fetch relevant job postings. 4. **Job Filtering:** Duplicate job listings are filtered out to ensure you receive unique opportunities. 5. **Job Info Extraction:** Key details like job description, company name, and job URL are extracted from each posting. 6. **Skills Extraction (AI):** An AI model (OpenRouter) analyzes the job description to identify the top skills and qualifications required. 7. **Resume Match Scoring (AI):** Your resume is compared against the extracted job skills by an AI model, generating a compatibility score (1-5). 8. **Conditional Resume & Cover Letter Generation:** If the resume match score is satisfactory (≥ 3): * **Tailored Resume Generation (AI):** An AI model rewrites your resume, specifically highlighting the skills and experience most relevant to the target job, in an ATS-friendly and human-readable JSON/HTML format. * **Personalized Cover Letter Generation (AI):** A custom cover letter is drafted by AI, uniquely tailored to the job description and your newly optimized resume, generated as well-formatted HTML. 9. **Google Sheets Integration:** The generated cover letter, tailored resume, job URL, and application status are automatically updated in your designated Google Sheet for easy tracking. 10. **Gmail Notification:** A personalized email containing the generated cover letter, tailored resume, and a direct link to the job posting on Adzuna is sent to your specified email address. 11. **Webhook Response:** A final text response is sent back via the webhook, summarizing the sent application materials. --- **How to use:** * **Manual Trigger:** The workflow is set up with a manual trigger (Webhook) for initial testing and demonstration. You can easily replace this with an n8n form, a scheduled trigger, or integrate it into your existing tools. * **Input:** Provide your desired job search keyword and your resume (e.g., as a PDF) to the webhook. * **Review & Apply:** Review the AI-generated cover letter and tailored resume sent to your email, then proceed to apply for the job using the provided Adzuna link. --- **Requirements:** * **n8n Instance:** A running n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud). * **Adzuna API Key:** A free Adzuna API key (easily obtainable from their developer portal). * **OpenRouter Account:** For AI model access (costs apply based on usage). * **Google Sheets Account:** To store and track your job applications. * **Gmail Account:** To send automated application emails. --- **Customizing this workflow:** This workflow is highly customizable. You can: * Integrate with other job boards (e.g., LinkedIn, Indeed) using their APIs. * Add more sophisticated AI models or custom prompts for even finer control over resume and cover letter generation. * Connect to other services for CRM, calendar management, or applicant tracking. * Implement different filtering criteria for job postings. * Expand the data stored in your Google Sheet (e.g., interview dates, feedback).
