Show HN: Job Application Bot by Ollama AI

It says that I can apply to all the jobs on LinkedIn, but that I can only apply to 25 jobs per day. How many days is it going to take me to apply to all the jobs on LinkedIn if that’s the case?

I'm excited to see how applications of all sorts of things change. With AI, you can have a personalized application to every job, every college, every grant, etc. etc.

I would imagine it will then have to be some sort of matching algorithm or dual opt in system. Maybe dating apps styles will become common.:P

Python QT is going to be an order of magnitude more efficient than Electron. I can't see why Electron would be an improvement over it.

I’d be happy to increase the limit for you. The current restriction is in place to help prevent excessive usage and mitigate the risk of being banned by LinkedIn.
