Use Comet to browse LinkedIn lists

A Reddit commenter had Perplexity Comet work through LinkedIn results, though the browser agent still needed help with some application prompts.

What they did
One commenter copied a shared prompt, changed it to suit their needs, and then watched Perplexity Comet handle LinkedIn navigation. Another described using it with LinkedIn Easy Apply, but said the agent stopped at several points to ask about form fields, so they had to answer or skip those parts manually. A third commenter said they use a longer prompt and usually add their resume to give the agent more background.
How it went
The agent could move through LinkedIn job applications, which surprised the person watching it. Even so, commenters said it can stall, fail to finish the full process, or need a person to step in mid-application.
Tips
Expect to review anything that involves application questions or final submission. A browser agent can save time on the browsing part, but it may not complete every step by itself.

Try it yourself with Perplexity Comet

In a LinkedIn tab where I’m already signed in, look for [role or profile type] at organizations in [location]. Review the first [number] matches and return a table with each person’s name, title, employer, and profile URL. Do not contact anyone. If you reach a question you can’t answer with confidence, stop and wait for me before continuing, and end after the table is filled in.

Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
