How it works
Aplies is a Chrome extension that searches LinkedIn for the jobs you choose, fills each application from your CV and submits it. Here is every step in the order it happens: the first five are yours, done once; the last four are the Agent’s, on every run.
Your step
Sign in on aplies.com, open Install and press “Add to Chrome”. Pin the Aplies icon, open it and press “Connect with Aplies”: a tab opens on aplies.com, where you press “Authorize Aplies Agent” to link the Agent. There is nothing to copy.
Your step
Setup opens on “Where to apply”, with “LinkedIn Easy Apply only” preselected. Choose “LinkedIn + company websites” and it also follows a job’s Apply button to the employer’s own careers page. Chrome then asks once for access: LinkedIn always, other sites only if you chose company websites. You can change this later in the Agent’s Settings.
Your step
Add your CV as a PDF, Word (.docx) or plain-text file, up to 8 MB. The text is pulled out on your computer and sent to Aplies’ AI service to pick out your details; the file itself is never uploaded to Aplies. Setup then shows those details as fields you can correct, with the full text it read below them.
Your step
Type your job titles, separated by commas, as many as you like, and the places you want; each place is checked when you add it. Choose the workplace (On-site, Hybrid, Remote) and experience levels, then set “Min job match %”: jobs that score below it are never opened.
Your step
Enter your current and expected salary in US dollars. Both are required: they are the base. Add your own figures in other currencies if you like. When a form asks in a currency you haven’t added, it converts your US-dollar figure for you.
The Agent's step
It searches LinkedIn only, in its own tab, in the background. You don’t need to open LinkedIn first, but you do need to be signed in to it in Chrome. It works through each title, place by place, newest first: the last 24 hours, then the past week, then any time. Every job card gets an AI match score out of 100, and only jobs at or above your minimum are opened.
The Agent's step
It works through each LinkedIn Easy Apply form, up to 10 steps: contact details, CV, screening questions, review, submit. It uses the CV LinkedIn already holds if it matches yours by name; otherwise it uploads your file. On the review step it unticks “Follow <company>”. Then it submits on its own after a short pause. There is no approval step.
The Agent's step
Every answer it writes carries a confidence. At 80% or more, it is filled in. Below that, it asks you: a chime, a Chrome notification, a count on the toolbar icon and a card on the page, “We need your answer”. You can also answer in the popup. On company sites it asks about required questions; unsure optional fields are left as they are.
The Agent's step
Every attempt goes into the Agent’s “Application Report”, failures included: the job, company and link, every question and the answer given with its confidence, the method, and why a failed one stopped. Correct an answer there and it is used next time. Export it as CSV for any spreadsheet, plus a JSON backup.
An Easy Apply costs 1 credit and a company-site application 2 credits. The credit is reserved just before the Agent submits and charged when the application goes through. Anything that stops before submitting costs nothing, however often; a submission that fails with a reason isn’t charged either.
When a run stops, the popup says why. These are the usual reasons.
Settings → Schedule starts runs by itself: “Every few hours” (every 1 to 24 hours) or “At set times of day”. It is off until you turn it on, and runs only while Chrome is open. A scheduled run won’t start while the last one is waiting for you, and every limit and credit rule still applies.
The same rules on every run, whatever your plan.
It works inside the LinkedIn session you are already signed into. It never asks for your password and never stores it.
On LinkedIn, a CAPTCHA or verification stops the run. On a company site it skips that one job, charges nothing and carries on.
It never creates an account or types a password on an employer’s site. At a sign-in wall it stops, leaves the tab open for you and tells you.
Date of birth, gender, nationality, phone and notice period come from your setup. If a form needs one it doesn’t have, it asks; if you don’t answer, it drops that job instead of guessing.
Gender comes from what you set (“Prefer not to say” is fine), never from your name. Race, ethnicity, veteran status, disability and sexual orientation get the form’s “decline to answer” option or are left blank.
It only uses links that are in your CV or profile, and never builds a profile URL from your name. It avoids answering “0 years” to an experience question.
On skills and qualifications it answers “Yes” unless your CV says otherwise. That never applies to legal status, immigration, criminal history, clearance or professional licences. Work authorisation is answered from your nationality and where you live; anything ambiguous comes back to you.
If it stops before submitting, it costs nothing, however often that happens.
