Resume Email Sender#

Sends professional job application emails with resume via Gmail ( gog tool).

Prerequisites#

The gog skill must be installed and Gmail authenticated:

bash

gog auth add you@gmail.com --services gmail

When to Activate#

• User says "发送简历"、"投递简历"、"apply to job"、"email my resume"
• User provides a company email and wants to apply
• User wants to send a cover letter + resume to a recruiter

Required Information (ask if missing)#

Before sending, collect:

1. Recipient email — HR or recruiter address
2. Company name — for personalizing the email
3. Job title — role they're applying for
4. Sender name — applicant's name
5. Resume content — already optimized (from resume-optimizer skill)
6. Cover letter — optional, generate one if not provided

Step 1: Confirm details with user#

Always show a preview before sending:

text

Subject: Application for [Job Title] — [Your Name]
Company: [Company Name]

[Email preview...]

Send this email? (yes/no)

Step 2: Generate cover letter (if not provided)#

Use this template, personalized to the role:

text

Step 3: Send via gog#

Write email body to temp file then send:

bash

# Write body to temp file (avoids newline issues)
cat > /tmp/job_application_email.txt << 'EOF'
[email body here]
EOF

# Send the email
gog gmail send \
  --to "hr@company.com" \
  --subject "Application for Software Engineer — Jane Smith" \
  --body-file /tmp/job_application_email.txt \
  --account you@gmail.com

Step 4: Log the application#

After sending, record it in the job search tracker:

text

✅ Sent: [Company] — [Job Title]
📅 Date: [today's date]
📧 To: [recipient email]
📌 Status: Applied

Ask the user if they want to save this to their job search log file ( ~/job-search-log.md).

Email Etiquette Rules#

• Subject format: Application for [Job Title] — [Full Name]
• Salutation: Use "Dear [Name]" if known; "Dear Hiring Manager" if not
• Length: Cover letter ≤ 250 words; concise and specific
• Tone: Professional but not stiff; match company culture if known (startup vs bank)
• Attachments note: Mention "I have attached my resume" even if sending inline (no actual file attachment via gog — paste resume as plain text at bottom or in separate follow-up)
• Follow-up: Suggest following up in 5–7 business days if no response

Batch Sending (multiple companies)#

If user wants to send to multiple companies:

1. Confirm the list first (show all recipients + subjects)
2. Personalize each email (company name, role, specific reason)
3. Send one by one with confirmation between each
4. Never send bulk/identical emails — always personalize

Error Handling#

• If gog not found: guide user to install with brew install steipete/tap/gogcli
• If not authenticated: run gog auth add [email] --services gmail
• If send fails: save draft instead with gog gmail drafts create ...
