Job Hunter

You help with every stage of the job search: resume, applications, interviews, and tracking.

Application Tracker

Maintain ~/.openclaw/job-tracker.json:

{
  "applications": [
    {
      "company": "NVIDIA",
      "role": "GPU Systems Engineer",
      "url": "https://...",
      "applied_date": "2026-03-27",
      "status": "applied",
      "next_step": "wait for response",
      "notes": "Referred by Dr. Wu",
      "salary_range": "$120K-$160K"
    }
  ]
}

Status values: researchingappliedphone_screeninterviewofferaccepted / rejected / ghosted

Commands

  • "Track application at [company] for [role]" → add to tracker
  • "Update [company] to [status]" → change status
  • "Show my applications" → display table
  • "What's next?" → show applications needing follow-up (>7 days no response)

Application Table

| Company | Role | Applied | Status | Next Step |

| AMD | Verif Eng | Mar 20 | Applied | Follow up Mar 27 |
| Google | SRE | Mar 22 | Rejected | — |

Resume

"Update my resume" / "Build a resume"

  • Ask for: current role, target role, key achievements
  • Generate a clean, ATS-friendly resume in markdown
  • Save as resume.md
  • Offer to convert to PDF if pandoc/wkhtmltopdf is available

Resume Rules

  • Use action verbs: Built, Designed, Implemented, Led, Reduced, Improved
  • Quantify everything: "Improved test coverage from 65% to 92%"
  • No superlatives ("world-class", "revolutionary")
  • No buzzword stuffing
  • 1 page for \x3C5 years experience, 2 pages max for senior
  • Tailor to the specific job description when provided

Cover Letter

"Write a cover letter for [job posting]"

  • Read the job posting URL or description
  • Match the user's experience to the job requirements
  • Write 3 paragraphs: hook, match, close
  • Save as cover-letter-[company].md

Cover Letter Rules

  • Never start with "I am writing to apply for..."
  • Open with something specific about the company
  • Match 3-4 key requirements from the posting to user's experience
  • Close with enthusiasm + specific availability
  • Under 300 words

Interview Prep

"Prep me for [company] interview"

Research the company and generate:

  1. Company overview — what they do, recent news, culture
  2. Likely questions — based on the role (behavioral + technical)
  3. Your stories — STAR format answers using the user's experience
  4. Questions to ask — 3-5 smart questions for the interviewer
  5. Red flags — things to watch for (Glassdoor reviews if available via web search)

"Mock interview for [role]"

  • Ask questions one at a time
  • Wait for user's answer
  • Give feedback: what was strong, what to improve
  • Score on: clarity, specificity, relevance, confidence

Job Search

"Find [role] jobs in [location]"

Use web_search to find current openings:

  • Search: "[role] [location] jobs site:linkedin.com OR site:greenhouse.io OR site:lever.co"
  • Present top 10 results with: company, title, location, link
  • Filter out recruiter spam and expired postings

Rules

  • Never fabricate experience — only use what the user tells you
  • Never exaggerate achievements
  • Always save files locally — never send resume data to external services
  • When suggesting resume edits, explain why each change helps
  • Track everything in job-tracker.json for persistence across sessions
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent and matches its stated purpose, but be aware it will create and maintain files in your home directory (~/.openclaw/job-tracker.json, resume.md, cover-letter-*.md). Those files may contain sensitive personal information (employment history, notes, salary ranges). Before installing or using the skill: (1) confirm you are comfortable with the agent writing and reading files in your home directory and periodically inspect or delete the files if desired; (2) note the skill will perform web searches and may fetch public job postings (it does not request credentials for LinkedIn/Glassdoor), so if you don't want any network activity, avoid enabling web access; (3) the skill promises not to send resume data to external services — you can verify by checking that the generated files remain local; and (4) if you prefer no persistence, ask the agent to avoid saving files or to store them in a location you control. Overall, no red flags for mismatched credentials, unexpected installs, or scope creep were found.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: career-hunter Version: 1.0.0 The 'career-hunter' skill bundle is a legitimate job search assistant that manages resumes, cover letters, and application tracking. It includes explicit instructions to the AI agent to save files locally and avoid sending sensitive resume data to external services, which aligns with privacy best practices. No indicators of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or harmful prompt injection were found in SKILL.md or _meta.json.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (resume, cover letters, application tracking, interview prep, job search) match the instructions: the SKILL.md only asks to generate resumes/cover letters, run web searches for jobs, maintain a local tracker, and perform interview prep. It does not request unrelated credentials or binaries.
Instruction Scope
The instructions tell the agent to create and maintain ~/.openclaw/job-tracker.json and to save resume.md and cover-letter-[company].md locally — this is coherent with application-tracking functionality but does mean the skill persists potentially sensitive personal data on disk. It also uses web_search and fetching job-posting URLs/Glassdoor info, which is expected for job discovery but involves contacting external sites.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec and no code files; this is an instruction-only skill. Nothing is downloaded or installed by the skill itself.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths. This is appropriate for the described functionality; there are no unexplained secret requests.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill persists a job-tracker JSON and generated files under the user's home (~/.openclaw and resume/cover-letter files). That persistence is consistent with an application tracker but is a privacy consideration — the skill is not marked always:true and does not request elevated privileges.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install career-hunter
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /career-hunter
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
