AI ツールがウェブから求人を探し、履歴書とカバーレターを準備する

Combing through job postings and company help wanted pages for a position that matches your resume is the very definition of drudge work. Now, there's an AI designed to suck up information from the web, do the search for you, and even help you apply. Software developer Tarun Gupta created just such a tool in the form of Autopilot-Jobhunt. When configured with a profile of the user and their desired jobs (and what they absolutely won’t accept in an opening), A-J will scan the web while users sleep, take stock of the positions that are a good match, and then send a Telegram message to its user. That message includes all matching openings, scored against the user's resume and ranked according to the AI's assessment. Users can ask A-J to format a resume and cover letter tailored to the position, which it’s up to the user to review and send - the bot won’t do so automatically. You might be thinking that an AI-crafted resume and cover letter would be a bad strategy for getting your foot in the door at a company you’re keen to work for, but that might not be the case, actually. As we reported last year, researchers found that some AI hiring bots, often the first line a company uses to separate the wheat from the chaff, favored applications generated by the same AI model they used for screening - suggesting the human touch may be worth less than you think in the modern job market. A-J is designed to be free to use (what hard-up developer can afford to do hundreds of AI API calls a night, after all?), and relies on free models to comb the web for jobs. TinyFish’s AI web agent is used to crawl for jobs, while OpenRouter provides the API for one of several default free AI models that A-J will run through, starting with Llama and falling back to free versions of Nvidia’s Nemotron, Google’s Gemma 4, and Alibaba’s Qwen3 when all else fails, or quotas run out. Claude Code and the Anthropic API can be used in place of OpenRouter if you’ve got tokens to spare. For those concerned about A-J broadcasting personal details to the web, Gupta writes that it’s designed to be private, providing an entire privacy readme as part of the project’s GitHub documentation. As mentioned above, A-J never applies for a job on a user’s behalf, and the config file where users link to their locally stored Markdown-formatted resume and set other options is gitignored so it won’t ever be committed by accident. That said, resumes do get routed to the LLMs OpenRouter is configured to use. Gupta said those who want to avoid sending that data through OpenRouter can use Claude Code instead, provided they have an Anthropic subscription that supports it. As for who could make use of the tool, it’s configured by default for software developers, and for good reason: According to Hiring Lab data published on Wednesday, the number of job openings for software developers has risen by 15 percent since Anthropic released Claude Code in February 2025, while openings for all other jobs have fallen by seven percent over the same timeframe. Still, young college graduates in a variety of career fields report not being able to find a job, so the tool could be of use to anyone with the willingness to reconfigure it for a different career field. AI companies, fintechs, and Silicon Valley heavyweights might be programmed into A-J by default, but they can be freely added, removed, and reconfigured as desired. It’ll probably take some work to get Autopilot-Jobhunt configured for your particular needs, but if you’re having trouble landing a role, giving it a shot can’t hurt. ®
