Every morning used to look the same: scroll LinkedIn alerts -> open a JD -> tailor my resume -> Easy Apply or an external form -> repeat. Lots of context-switching, easy to miss steps, and hard to track what I already applied to. So I documented the whole process in a resume + application workspace: What the agent does What I still do What’s in the repo base-resume.md — single source of truth RUNBOOK.md
— step-by-step daily batch
jobs/<company-role>/
— JD, analysis, tailored resume, PDF applications.csv
- queue — no duplicate applies One prompt to start the day: Run today's job application batch per RUNBOOK.md It’s not “auto-apply everything.” It’s prep at machine speed, decisions at human speed - which is how I want to job search as a PM. If you’re job hunting with Cursor, I’d start with a runbook + a base resume + a hard rule: never submit without you.
