Overview
Tutorial
The LinkedIn Job Auto Save automation allows you to automatically save job listings on LinkedIn based on specified search criteria, helping you efficiently track and organize potential job opportunities. This tool is ideal for job seekers and recruiters who want to monitor specific roles or companies. Follow this guide to configure the automation, with options to export data to Google Sheets or CSV for tracking saved jobs.
Step 1: Log in to the TexAu App and Locate the Automation
Log in to your TexAu account at v2-prod.texau.com. In the Automation Store, use the search bar to find LinkedIn Job Auto Save quickly.
Screenshot Suggestion: Show the Automation Store screen with "LinkedIn Job Auto Save" entered in the search bar.
Step 2: Connect to LinkedIn with TexAu
To enable TexAu to save LinkedIn jobs on your behalf, connect your LinkedIn account. Click Add Account and select LinkedIn. TexAu offers two secure connection methods:
- Magic Link: Sends a secure link to your email for easy login without manual cookie management.
- Add Account: Connects directly via TexAu’s built-in browser extension for straightforward setup.
Tip: Magic Link provides a fast and secure connection to LinkedIn without needing to handle cookies.
Screenshot Suggestion: Show the LinkedIn connection options, highlighting both Magic Link and Add Account choices.
Step 3: Define Your Job Search Criteria
With LinkedIn connected, specify the job search criteria that TexAu will use to automatically save listings:
- Job Title: Enter specific titles to target, such as “Data Analyst” or “Product Manager.”
- Location: Choose one or multiple locations (e.g., “New York” or “Remote”).
- Company Name (Optional): Target specific companies by entering their names.
- Date Posted: Filter listings based on posting date (e.g., last 24 hours, last week).
Using well-defined criteria ensures you save only the most relevant job listings.
Screenshot Suggestion: Show the job search criteria fields, highlighting job title, location, company, and date posted options.
Step 4: Schedule the Automation (Optional)
To automate job saving at regular intervals, configure the Schedule settings. Click Schedule to set the start date and time, or configure a Recurrence Frequency to run the automation periodically:
- At Regular Intervals (e.g., every day or every 6 hours)
- Once
- Every Day
- On Specific Days of the Week (e.g., every Tuesday and Friday)
- On Specific Days of the Month (e.g., the 5th and 20th)
- On Specific Dates (e.g., March 1)
Scheduling is useful if you want to continuously save new job listings that match your criteria.
Screenshot Suggestion: Show the scheduling interface with options for selecting start time and recurrence frequency.
Step 5: Set an Iteration Delay (Optional)
To avoid LinkedIn’s rate limits, set an Iteration Delay to control the interval between each job listing save action. Configure Minimum Delay and Maximum Delay values to add variability, simulating natural browsing. Adjust the delay in seconds, minutes, or hours, as needed.
Screenshot Suggestion: Include a screenshot of the Iteration Delay settings, showing Minimum Delay, Maximum Delay, and time units.
Step 6: Choose Your Output Mode (Optional)
In Output Mode, select how you want to save and manage data on the saved jobs. Exporting data to Google Sheets or CSV file allows for easy tracking and analysis.
- Export Options: Choose Google Sheets or CSV file as your output destination. Link your Google account if you select Google Sheets, enabling direct export to Google Drive.
- Output Management:
- Append (Default): Adds each saved job to the end of the existing file, creating a cumulative list of job opportunities.
- Split: Each automation run generates a new file, helpful for organizing data by session.
- Overwrite: Replaces previous data with the latest list of saved jobs, ideal if you’re only interested in the most recent listings.
- Duplicate Management: Enable Deduplicate to automatically remove duplicate entries, keeping your data clean and organized.
Tip: Exporting to Google Sheets allows for easy sharing and real-time updates on saved job listings.
Screenshot Suggestion: Show the output mode options screen with Google Sheets, CSV, and Deduplicate options highlighted.
Step 7: Run the Automation on Cloud or Desktop
Once configurations are complete, click Run to start the automation. Choose whether to run on Cloud or Desktop mode:
- Cloud: Runs the automation on TexAu’s servers, ideal for hands-free operation.
- Desktop: Run locally on your device if you prefer using your own IP address, which can help simulate manual usage.
Tip: Running automations on Desktop mode saves cloud runtime costs and offers more control over task execution.
Screenshot Suggestion: Show the Run button with Cloud and Desktop options visible.
Step 8: Access the Data from the Data Store
After the automation completes, go to the Data Store section in TexAu to access the saved job listing data. Locate the LinkedIn Job Auto Save automation and click See Data to view or download the results.
Screenshot Suggestion: Display the Data Store screen with the “See Data” button highlighted.
The LinkedIn Job Auto Save automation simplifies tracking relevant job opportunities by automatically saving LinkedIn listings that meet your criteria. With scheduling, customizable search inputs, and export options to Google Sheets or CSV, this tool is ideal for job seekers and recruiters who want to keep their LinkedIn saved jobs list organized and current.
