Greenhouse Application Skill

Fill and submit Greenhouse job application forms via browser automation.

Prerequisites

• Browser tool available (OpenClaw browser or Chrome extension)
• Resume PDF accessible on the filesystem
• Gmail or email access to retrieve verification codes
• User-provided: name, email, phone, resume path, answers to custom questions

Workflow

Phase 1: Open the Job Page

Navigate to the Greenhouse job URL.

Phase 2: Fill All Text Fields via JS Evaluate

Critical: Do NOT use type on individual fields. Use a single evaluate call with native setters.

Phase 3: Phone Country Dropdown

The phone country selector is an intl-tel-input widget. It hijacks focus from other dropdowns.

Phase 4: React Select Dropdowns

Use Playwright click, type, press Enter on the combobox ref.

Phase 5: Resume Upload

Use the browser upload tool with the Attach button ref.

Phase 6: Audit Before Submit

Take a snapshot and verify EVERY field.

Phase 7: Submit & Verification Code

The code input is 8 individual inputs with IDs security-input-0 through security-input-7. DO NOT use Playwright type on snapshot refs for code boxes — use JS evaluate instead.

Failure Modes & Recovery

• Characters in wrong fields: Use JS getElementById instead of snapshot refs
• Country dropdown stealing focus: Click document.body first to blur
• Dropdown shows Select after setting: Use click-type-Enter pattern
• Submit button stays disabled: Ensure input+change events fire with bubbles:true
• Code expired: Re-submit to get fresh code

Notes

• Voluntary EEO fields are optional
• The Why Company textarea is the highest-value field
• Phone auto-formats after country selection
• Greenhouse may throttle repeat submissions
