What this guide helps you do

Use browser assistance for repetitive tasks while staying in control of employer-facing actions.

Action plan

1. Connect the extension

Confirm sign-in, version, heartbeat, and permissions.

2. Capture the job

Save the role before filling the form.

3. Review fields

Confirm mapped profile data and required answers.

4. Stop at blockers

CAPTCHA, login, 2FA, and unknown fields need user action.

Common mistakes

• Treating a resume, tracker, CRM, and interview notes as separate systems.
• Letting automation act when confidence, consent, or required answers are unclear.
• Optimizing for volume without tracking outcomes and evidence quality.

Internal links

• chrome extension autofill
• help/install extension
• extension/permissions
