Hiring Assistant

NOTE: Work in progress

making a tool to take in the resume as a md file and answers the questions for the form or writes cold mails for the hiring process

ToDo / Roadmap

• Handle whatever resume files they throw at us (PDF, DOCX, TXT, MD)
• Actually parse those files right (PyPDF2, python-docx)
• Use LLMs to make resume text less of a nightmare
• Get Google Gemini 2.0 Flash to generate answers
• Smarter prompt templates
• Real-deal web scraping for company intel
• Copy to clipboard finally works oml
• Hook into APIs (LinkedIn, company sites, the works)
• Grab news and recent company updates automatically
• Figure out company culture & values (if possible)
• Let users pick their poison (OpenAI, Claude, other LLMs)
• Spit out cold email templates
• Control AI answer length (not too chatty, not too brief)
• Export options (PDF, Word, 'cause people ask)
• User accounts & saving their data (uff but how)
• Keep track of resume versions (undo for resumes!)
• BYOK for API keys
• Save resumes
• Signup flow
• File uploader that doesn't break every five minutes
• Clear upload status with file names
• Show research bits in neat expandable sections
• Q&As in clean cards, not a wall of text
• UI that remembers where you left off (session state)
• Progress bars that make sense
• Looks good on desktop AND PHONES
• Slick UI with gradients and modern touches
• Easy toggle for mobile view
• See changes live (websockets)
• One-click copy that actually works
• Show overall progress (so they know stuff is happening)
