Let’s set it up!

Step 1: Install the extension and choose your email bot

You will be redirected to install the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Apollo. Click the “Pin it” button at the top of this page to get this automation saved to your Playbooks.

Activate Bardeen (or hit Option + B on Mac or ALT + B on PC on your keyboard) and click on the playbook card. The setup flow will start. Bardeen will ask you to choose or specify your email bot. You can choose an existing bot that you created in the past or customize a new one from the dropdown. For the purpose of this tutorial, let’s choose to customize an email bot.

BardeenAI will begin customizing your email bot by gathering information about you using tools like Apollo.io.

It will then display all the pre-filled information it has found about you.

Review this information and make edits if necessary. This information will be used when constructing your recruiting emails. Bardeen will ask you to name your outreach assistant so you will have easy access whenever you want to use it.

After you have read, edited and approved all the information, your email bot is now ready. 

Click on “Save Input” and checkmark your email bot. This will save you time from setup in the future. You can edit Inputs later by hovering over the playbook. 

Step 2: Run the playbook to create a job application email draft in Microsoft Outlook from the currently opened LinkedIn job post

To enrich and create a job application email draft from a LinkedIn job post, activate Bardeen (or hit Option + B on Mac or ALT + B on PC on your keyboard) and run this playbook. It will use the current LinkedIn job post to get information using Apollo.io. It will also use the information and your email bot to generate a customized application email draft in Microsoft Outlook.

Each email will be customized to the user with information that Bardeen finds on Apollo.io.

You can also edit the playbook and add your next action to further customize the automation.
