💡 Pro Tip — HTTP Request scraping tends to break when sites update their markup. If you’re scraping a major platform, check if ScraperNode covers it — it has maintained scrapers for LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and 20+ other platforms that return structured data.
Description
Who this is for
This workflow is for freelancers, job seekers, or service providers who want to automatically apply to businesses by scraping their website information, extracting contact details, and sending personalized job application emails with AI-powered content — all from one form submission.
What this workflow does
This workflow starts every time someone submits the Job Applier Form. It then:
- Scrapes the target business website to gather company information and contact details.
- Converts HTML content to readable markdown format for better AI processing.
- Extracts email addresses and creates a company summary using GPT-5 AI.
- Validates email addresses to ensure they contain proper formatting (@ symbol check).
- Accesses your experience data from a connected Google Sheet with your skills and portfolio.
- Generates personalized application emails (subject + body) using GPT-5 based on the job position and company info.
- Sends the application email automatically via Gmail with your name as sender.
- Provides confirmation through a completion form showing the AI’s response.
Setup
To set this workflow up:
- Form Trigger – Customize the job application form fields (Target Business Website, Applying As dropdown with positions like Video Editor, SEO Expert, etc.).
- OpenAI GPT-5 – Add your OpenAI API credentials for both AI models used in the workflow.
- Google Sheets – Connect your sheet containing your working experience data, skills, and portfolio information.
- Gmail Account – Link your Gmail account for sending application emails automatically.
- Experience Data – Update the Google Sheet with your relevant skills, experience, and achievements for each job type.
- Sender Name – Modify the sender name in Gmail settings (currently set to “Jamal Mia”).
How to customize this workflow to your needs
- Add more job positions to the dropdown menu (currently includes Video Editor, SEO Expert, Full-Stack Developer, Social Media Manager).
- Modify the AI prompt to reflect your unique value proposition and application style.
