🔍 JobHunter Pro - The Slightly Illegal Job Stalker Bot

Because manually checking job boards is so 2010.

(Actual footage of our bot out-hustling you in the job market)

🔍 What's This?

A Telegram bot that scours HH.ru and LinkedIn for jobs while you binge-watch Netflix. It's like having a personal recruiter, but one that actually works 24/7 and doesn't ghost you.

⚡ Features

• HH.ru + LinkedIn scraping - Like a digital bloodhound for jobs
• Telegram interface - Because CLI is for masochists
• SQLite/PostgreSQL support - Your data won't disappear like my will to live
• Configurable searches - "Blockchain expert with 10 years experience" → laughs in bot
• Pretends to be human on LinkedIn (shhh...)

🛠️ Installation - For When You're Done Procrastinating

# Clone the repo (if you can find your terminal)
git clone https://github.com/LilyAshford/Job_Search_Bot.git
cd jobhunter-pro

# Install dependencies (a.k.a. magic spells)
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Configure the bot (the adulting part)
cp config.py config.py # Then edit like your life depends on it

⚙️ Configuration

Edit config.py with your darkest secrets:

# Telegram
TELEGRAM_TOKEN = "YOUR_TOKEN_HERE" # Get from @BotFather

# LinkedIn Creds (because bots need social media too)
LINKEDIN_EMAIL = "your_email@example.com"
LINKEDIN_PASSWORD = "hunter2" # Pro tip: Actually change this

# Database (SQLite by default because we're lazy)
DATABASE_URL = "sqlite:///jobs.db" # For PostgreSQL: "postgresql://user:pass@localhost/dbname"

# Default search parameters
DEFAULT_SEARCH_PARAMS = {
"keywords": ["Python"],
"locations": ["Remote"],
"salary_min": 50000, # In rubles, because we fancy
"experience": "noExperience" # "Senior" if you're feeling bold
}

🚦 Running the Bot

python bot.py
# Warning: May cause sudden influx of recruiter messages

🧰 Tech Stack

• Telegram Bot API - For those sweet push notifications

Prerequisites

🚨 Known Issues
