What it does

You paste a job description, and OpenAI writes a Boolean search string aimed at LinkedIn profile pages. The workflow creates a Google Sheet, sends the string to Google through an HTTP request, and reads the results page by page. It saves the profile URLs it finds to the sheet for review until the condition in the If node is met.
