"At the start of my job hunt, I reached out to recruiters on LinkedIn, but personalizing each message took a lot of time. I tried using ChatGPT to draft messages, but it kept making mistakes. I realized that, on ChatGPT, I'm not just chatting about my job search; I'm also chatting about recipe ideas, workout plans, budgeting, and travel itineraries. When ChatGPT would give me an answer, it would often get mixed up or provide generic answers that weren't customized to me."
"While I enjoyed the high-growth, fast-paced culture at TikTok, I was looking to work for a more established company with stability in the US, so I started applying to other jobs in April. During the first two months of filling out job applications, I only landed two or three interviews. After not finding much help from ChatGPT, I came up with the idea of creating a custom GPT."
Amar Saurabh left roles at Meta and TikTok and sought a more established, stable US company, beginning applications in April. Initial outreach yielded only a few interviews in two months. ChatGPT produced generic, sometimes incorrect responses and requested repeated resume uploads, prompting development of a custom GPT tailored for job search. Creation took under two hours and the assistant automated personalized LinkedIn messages, improved interview answers, and aided offer negotiation. The custom GPT contributed to securing a lead product manager role at PayPal. The tool is accessible via ChatGPT's free tier, with paid subscriptions enabling resume uploads and additional features.
