ai-job-search

Find roles worth pursuing. Prepare applications you can stand behind.

A workspace for using an AI assistant to search job boards, compare roles with your experience, tailor application documents, and prepare for interviews. Your profile and application history stay in your own copy.

This edition adds Greenhouse, Lever, and Ashby employer-board searches and a persistent review queue to Mads Lorentzen's original project.

First application

Open your private copy in Claude Code, or open it in Codex and ask it to follow AGENTS.md. Start with a real résumé and a job posting:

This is a folder of instructions, templates, and search tools. It requires an AI assistant with access to local files and a terminal. It is not a hosted job-search website.

Private setup

Create a private copy before entering personal data. Setup fills tracked files with your contact details, work history, and preferences. The ignore rules protect generated applications, but do not hide changes to tracked profile files.

On this repository's GitHub page, choose Use this template → Create a new repository, give it a name such as my-job-search, and select Private. Clone that new repository and open its folder in your assistant.

With the GitHub CLI, the same route is:

Select your new private repository when gh repo set-default asks. If you prefer a local-only copy, use Code → Download ZIP and keep it off public remotes.
