Hey everyone, I'm Valerio.
I'd like to share a new open source project of mine: SnapplAI.
It solves a problem with LinkedIn's batch job alerts — the timing often means a posting closes within a day with very few applicants, and you miss out on a low-competition opportunity because you simply didn't see it in time. It's happened to me way too often.
The tool uses AI to analyze your profile and shows you the best matches based on your settings. But the real focus is applying in the first hours of a posting to get a competitive edge.
Contributions are very welcome — thanks for your time.
Could you fix the spelling of the title?
It reminds me of the time I adapted a very early "centaur" AI framework I'd made to processing job applications... Then I got the very first job I applied for because, of course, my job application was a great story for the interview.
Does applying to a job immediately really increase your chances that much?
Yes lazy (internal or external) recruiters will grab the first 25 candidates or so that match the spec to pass on to the hiring manager
