3. plain_text_resume_template.yaml

Usage

1. Prepare the Data Folder: Ensure that your data_folder contains the following files:

   • secrets.yaml
   • config.yaml
   • plain_text_resume.yaml
   • resume.pdf (optional)

2. Run the Bot:

   python main.py [--resume PATH_TO_RESUME_PDF]
   

Optional Resume Feature

LinkedIn_AIHawk offers flexibility in how it handles your resume:

• Using a Specific Resume: If you want to use a specific PDF resume for all applications, run the bot with the --resume option:

  python main.py --resume /path/to/your/resume.pdf
  

• Dynamic Resume Generation: If you don't use the --resume option, the bot will automatically generate a unique resume for each application. This feature uses the information from your plain_text_resume.yaml file and tailors it to each specific job application, potentially increasing your chances of success by customizing your resume for each position.
