Turn Grok Bot into an always-on job hunter that applies to 20 roles a day
bigaiguy · x · 2026-08-20
A step-by-step guide to configuring Grok Bot as a persistent cloud job-search agent that auto-applies to 20 roles daily with tailored resumes and cover letters.
Key steps:
- Create a dedicated Bot with a role prompt specifying target roles, salary floor, and location; it runs on a cloud computer even with your laptop closed
- Log into LinkedIn, Wellfound, Indeed, email, and Google Drive once inside the Bot's cloud desktop — persistent VM keeps sessions alive
- Upload a master resume, a positioning doc with 5 pitch angles, a company blocklist, salary floor, and visa constraints as the source of truth
- Critical step: demo one full application while the Bot records; it generalizes the pattern into a reusable skill rather than replaying verbatim
- Schedule daily 6am runs, up to 20 applications, skipping blocklisted or below-floor roles and queueing ambiguous ones for approval
- Build an approval loop: drafts go to Slack/Notion first, auto-ship if not rejected within 2 hours
- Add a second Bot for follow-ups
