  5. How to Automatically Apply to Jobs Using the Comet Browser

The Comet browser by Perplexity isn’t just a search tool β€” it’s your AI job assistant.
With its built-in AI agent, you can automatically search for open positions, analyze job descriptions, and even apply to them β€” all from one place.

πŸ‘‰ Start by downloading Comet here.

1. How It Works

Comet includes a built-in Perplexity AI agent that understands natural language commands.
You can upload your resume (PDF format) and ask the AI to:

  • Find open job listings that match your experience
  • Evaluate which ones fit best
  • Generate personalized responses or apply directly when possible

Everything happens through simple, conversational prompts β€” no extensions or plugins required.

2. Upload Your Resume

Before using the job automation feature, you’ll need to upload your resume:

  1. Open Comet and click the Perplexity (Ask AI) icon.
  2. In the chat area, drag and drop your PDF resume, or click the paperclip πŸ“Ž icon to upload it.
  3. Wait until the file is processed (you’ll see a confirmation message).

πŸ’‘ Tip: Use a well-formatted resume in English (PDF, 1–2 pages) β€” this helps the AI extract your skills and experience accurately.

3. Use the Right Prompt

Once your resume is uploaded, you can type a natural-language command such as:

🧩 β€œHere’s my resume. Find new remote job openings that match my skills and apply to them automatically using my CV.”

Or be more specific:

β€œUsing my uploaded resume, find marketing jobs that match my experience and write personalized applications for each.”
β€œFind 5 new remote developer jobs and prepare tailored cover letters using my CV.”

The AI will analyze your resume, identify your skills, and generate relevant job search queries.
When possible, it can also auto-fill application forms or draft responses for you.

4. Review Before Submitting (Recommended)

Although the AI can apply automatically, it’s best to review the drafts before sending:

  • Read the generated job descriptions or messages.
  • Edit details like contact info or cover letter tone.
  • Approve final applications manually if required by the site.

This ensures every response feels personal and accurate.

5. Example Commands You Can Try

You can experiment with prompts like:

  • β€œUse my resume to find open content writer positions this week.”
  • β€œSearch for remote UX designer jobs and prepare short cover letters.”
  • β€œFind startup roles that fit my profile and apply using my uploaded resume.”
  • β€œCheck if there are new job listings I haven’t applied to yet.”

Comet’s AI will handle the search, summarization, and even application writing β€” all inside your browser.

6. Privacy and Safety

Your resume stays private β€” Comet and Perplexity don’t sell or share your data.
Uploaded documents are used only within your session to understand your experience and match suitable roles.
You can delete your file or clear your session at any time.

Summary

Using Comet’s built-in AI assistant, you can:

  • Upload your resume once
  • Ask the AI to find and apply for jobs automatically
  • Get tailored cover letters and replies instantly

This turns a multi-hour job search into a single prompt.
