RolesRadar: AI Job Search Automation Built on n8n

Overview

RolesRadar is my AI-powered job search agent, an end-to-end n8n workflow that treats my job hunt like a product. Every day it reads my resume, uses Gemini to translate my experience into a structured search profile, queries live listings through the Google Custom Search API, then has a second Gemini pass score and filter every result against my target: associate and early-career product, AI, and program roles with five years or less of experience, in fintech, B2B SaaS, and AI. The best matches land in a Google Sheet with a match score and reasons, and a Gmail digest tells me they are ready. The goal was to dissect the job search process, map the underlying needs, and ship an AI job search tool I actually use.

Highlights

• Runs fully hands-off on a daily schedule, so there is zero manual searching.
• Uses Gemini to convert my resume and preferences into a structured search profile (target titles, domains, keywords, and an experience band).
• Builds a precise boolean query and pulls live listings via the Google Custom Search API, filtering out staffing agencies and contractor marketplaces.
• A second Gemini pass scores each role 0 to 100, drops senior and 5+ year roles, and returns the top 10 matches with plain-English reasons.
• Logs every ranked match to a Google Sheet and sends a daily Gmail digest so I only act on high-fit opportunities.
• Treats job hunting as a product: dissects the process, maps the needs, and ships an AI agent I rely on every day.
