Internship Application Engine

An AI hiring partner that runs your internship hunt end to end.

It audits your profiles like a recruiter would, fixes them, finds roles across job boards and company career pages, writes a truthful one-page resume and cover letter for every job, fills in the applications up to the final screen, drafts recruiter outreach, and tracks everything in a dashboard. You review each application and click Submit.

It runs as a Claude Code skill plus a handful of small scripts. Nothing here is a hosted service; it all runs on your machine with your own logins.

1. What it does

Phase	Output
1. Hiring-partner audit	A blunt report covering your resume, LinkedIn, GitHub, and portfolio. Each issue gets "why this gets you rejected", a severity, and the exact fix
2. Optimize	LinkedIn edits (logged before → after), GitHub cleanup, CI and tests pushed, and a master resume that becomes the single source of truth
3. Find roles	A few dozen live internships matched to your roles, cities, stipend floor and eligibility, with each full job description saved to disk
4. Tailor and apply	For every job: a one-page tailored resume (PDF), a keyword-match score, a cover letter, and drafted application answers. The form is filled in your browser up to the final Submit
5. Outreach	Personalized LinkedIn connection notes and DMs for recruiters, hiring managers and engineers, batched for your approval and kept within safe daily limits
6. Tracker	tracker/dashboard.html with every opportunity, its status, match score, resume used, contact and follow-up date, plus a daily summary
7. Memory and skill	Your preferences and feedback are saved, and the workflow improves as patterns emerge

Guarantees

• Nothing is invented. Tailored resumes only select, reorder and reword facts from your master resume. A fact-checker flags any number or skill that doesn't trace back to it.
• You click Submit. Claude fills the form and stops at the final screen.
• Claude asks instead of guessing on work authorization, salary or CTC, demographics, legal declarations, passwords and addresses.
