What they did
The source is a brief comment, not a walkthrough. The commenter says applying through Workday or similar portals requires customizing a CV and cover letter for each job, which becomes a full-time job. An AI agent would produce those tailored documents, and the applicant would review them and make changes as needed.
How it went
No results or numbers are given. The commenter only says this arrangement would make applying somewhat easier, and doesn't report actually running it.
Worth knowing
The source names no tools, costs, or setup; it describes the idea of keeping a human review step on the agent's tailored CV and cover letter.
Try it yourself with Claude in Chrome
Take my CV from [file path] and the job posting at [URL], then tailor my CV and write a cover letter that matches the role using only facts from my CV. Fill in the application form with my details. Pause and show me the CV, cover letter, and filled form before I approve submitting.
