Getting Started with Your AutoApply Account

Before diving into automation, you’ll want to set up your AutoApply account properly. It’s straightforward but a few steps are key to get right.

Creating Your Account

Head over to aiquickhire.com and click the “Login” button at the top. If you’re new, hit the “Sign Up” link below the login form. You’ll need to enter:

  • Your email address (this is your login ID)
  • A secure password with at least 8 characters including uppercase, lowercase, a number, and a special character
  • Optionally, your phone number for two-factor authentication

If your password isn’t meeting criteria, the system will prompt you with hints, so you won’t get stuck.

Two-Factor Authentication Setup

To keep your account safe, you can set up 2FA. Choose between SMS codes or an authenticator app like Google Authenticator. We recommend the app since it doesn’t rely on cell signal and refreshes codes every 30 seconds.

Installing and Connecting the Chrome Extension

Once your account is ready, installing the LinkedIn Easy Apply Extension is just a click away. From your AutoApply dashboard’s “Overview” tab, click “Install Chrome Extension” to visit the Chrome Web Store.

After adding it, look for the AutoApply icon in your toolbar. Click to link it to your logged-in AutoApply account. If it can’t connect, double-check that you’re signed in on aiquickhire.com in another tab.

  • Set salary range realistically
  • Choose preferred locations (remote included)
  • Define experience levels
  • Exclude roles you don’t want (e.g., contract, commission-only)

Advanced Criteria

You can also get granular with:

  • Must-have vs. nice-to-have skills
  • Company size and industry exclusions
  • Age of job postings (to avoid stale listings)
  • Competition levels you’re comfortable with

How Automation Works During Your LinkedIn Job Search

When browsing LinkedIn with our extension on, you’ll notice subtle but helpful indicators next to Easy Apply buttons. Our system scores each job in real time based on your preferences.

Visual Match Indicators

Jobs get a colored badge:

  • Green: Strong match, auto-apply enabled
  • Yellow: Partial match, needs your review
  • Red: Poor match, skipped automatically

Application Queue

Instead of firing off applications immediately, the extension adds qualified jobs to your queue. From your AutoApply dashboard, you can review, tweak cover letters, or remove applications before they go out.

Metric Description Why It Matters
Applications Sent Number of jobs applied to daily Helps pace your search
Response Rate Percent of applications that get replies Shows targeting effectiveness
Interview Rate Applications that lead to interviews Quality of matches

Not everyone needs the same amount of applications. That’s why we offer three account types tailored to different levels of activity.

Free Account

Get 10 targeted applications monthly, manual review required before submission, plus basic analytics and standard cover letters.

Professional Account

Includes 100 applications per month with full auto-apply, AI-generated cover letters, and priority support. Perfect if you’re actively job hunting.
