One guy automated his entire job search with Claude Code #ai #automation

Santiago created an innovative approach to job hunting by using Claude Code to build a comprehensive automated job search system. Instead of manually applying to jobs, he instructed the AI to create a system that could handle his entire job search process. The system works by taking job links, reading and analyzing job postings, scoring how well they fit his profile, and automatically rewriting his resume with appropriate keywords to pass through company software filters. It then converts everything into ready-to-send PDF format. Santiago used this system extensively, processing over 740 jobs and generating more than 100 custom resumes. The system can scan 45+ companies including major tech firms like Anthropic, OpenAI, and Stripe, automatically finding openings, checking compatibility, and filling out application forms. It even provides scripted responses for salary negotiations. Notably, Santiago credited Claude as a co-creator rather than just a tool on the project page. The automation was successful - Santiago landed a head of applied AI role. In an unexpected move, he made the entire system open source and completely free, allowing anyone to use his exact job hunting methodology. The project gained significant traction with 7,000 people downloading it within just two days of release.
