Send this to your assistant

Create a ClickRuntime automation: every morning, score the new job listings in my 'Jobs' sheet against my CV, and add the ones above 7 out of 10 to my Airtable 'Applications' table with a short tailored summary.

Paste it into your assistant. It tells you what it will send or change before it runs live.

First time? Adding ClickRuntime to your assistant takes about two minutes.

Why use it

Why teams use this automation

Someone looking for their next role saves interesting listings into a sheet all week: links from job boards, newsletters and friends. By Friday there are forty rows and no time to read them properly. The strong matches sit next to roles that need a different skill set, and the best ones go stale while the list grows.

Scoring each new listing against the CV every morning, and moving only the strong matches into an Airtable tracker with a note on why they fit, turns a pile of links into a short list to apply to. The same set-up works for a recruiter scoring candidates in a sheet against one role.

What you get out of it

  • A short list every morning

    Only listings scoring above 7 reach the Applications table, so the tracker holds roles worth applying to.

  • A tailored angle for each match

    Each record includes two or three lines on which parts of your experience fit the role, ready for a cover note.

  • Listings are scored once

    Rows already scored are remembered, so each day's run reads only what was added since.

  • Your tracker stays in Airtable

    Applications sit in a table you can move through stages such as Applied, Interview and Offer.

How it works

What happens, step by step

  1. Every morning, ClickRuntime reads your Jobs sheet.

  2. It skips any listing it has already scored on an earlier day.

  3. AI compares each new listing with your CV and gives it a score out of 10 with a short reason.

  4. Listings scoring above 7 are added to your Airtable Applications table with a tailored summary.

Before it runs live

Build your own

Need it to work differently?

This template is a starting point. Copy the prompt and change it, or describe a different automation from scratch, with your own conditions, more apps or an AI step. Your assistant writes it, tests it and runs it on ClickRuntime.
  • Your own rules

    Conditions, thresholds, filters and exceptions, written the way you'd explain them to a colleague.

  • Any number of apps

    One automation can read from one app and update several others. Over 248 apps are ready, and anything with an API works too.

  • AI where it helps

    Summaries, classification, extraction and drafts use ClickRuntime's built-in AI, with no extra key.

  • On a schedule or on each event

    Runs as often as every 5 minutes, or the moment an app sends an event, and keeps track of what it already handled.

Changes you can ask for

  • Run it at a different time, more or less often, or only on weekdays
  • Change what the AI looks for, or how it writes the result
  • Add another app, for example also send it to Slack
  • Combine it with other Airtable and Google Sheets steps into one automation

Under the hood

The code that runs this automation

This is the Python script that runs each time the automation starts. Your AI assistant writes it for you when you send the prompt, and you allow each step in your assistant. To change how the automation works, describe the change to your assistant and it updates the script for you. For every function it can use, see the script reference.

FAQ

Common questions

Where does my CV go?
Paste the text of your CV, or the criteria for a role if you are hiring, into the script. It is sent with each listing to ClickRuntime's built-in AI and is not stored anywhere else.
What if a listing only has a link?
Put the job description text in the sheet next to the link. The score is based on what the row contains, so a row with only a title gets a rough score.
Can I change the cutoff from 7?
Yes. Lower it to see more matches or raise it for a stricter list. Listings below the cutoff are still remembered so they are not scored again.
What permissions does it need?
Sheets read; Airtable write. Nothing else in your accounts is used.
Does it need AI?
Yes. It uses ClickRuntime's built-in AI, so you don't need an OpenAI or Anthropic key. Every plan includes a monthly AI allowance.
How many runs does it use?
One run each time it runs (daily). Checks that find nothing to do and stop right away aren't counted.
Can I change how it works?
Yes. Describe the change to your AI assistant, for example a different schedule, channel or filter. It updates the automation, tests it and tells you what changed.
