I see you have no LICENSE file for this project. The default is copyright.

I would suggest releasing the code under the GPL-3.0-or-later or AGPL-3.0-or-later license so that others are encouraged to contribute changes back to your project.

This isn't an issue per se, but if there are multiple submissions from the same ip address, it's likely they can just filter for non-unique on their database and drop those submissions.

Good work so far!

So I was trying to install and run KelloggBot, and I believe I have everything set up, all the files in the proper PATH, and such. Upon running python main.py in CMD, I get this:

I'm not sure what they are referring to by Chrome version 87. I do have an old version of Chrome for playing Flash games still, installed as a portable version in my downloads folder.

Sorry for the dumb question, but I was wondering if I could have a hand. Thanks, I hope you have a great rest of the day, whoever is reading this :-)

Per code review https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29511616
It's probably a good idea to allow this to be compatible with headless firefox.

Currently it seems like it would be fairly easy to set up an automated system to detect the fake email addresses this uses, for example the first four I got were all either example.org or example.net addresses, it might be worth it to throw in some more domains into the mix to throw a wrench in that.

Emails used to generate accounts are already registered with Kellogg's. Program execution stops at this point.

I just got this set up this morning, but I noticed that every single generated phone number has an extension. May want to change that up.

Throwing an issue found during development of #25 here. Recaptcha seems not to like Chrome's headless browser/

I am using the latest master branch version.

I had some issues installing on Ubuntu/Mint and figured I'd share in case the maintainers here feel it's worth updating the readme.

Chrome

• I was getting a driver error until I installed google chrome. Maybe this is obvious but I didn't initially know I needed the chrome app instaled.

LaTeX

• the pdf command was hanging for me (no errors). It wasnt until I installed texlive-full that it worked. It may be that this is overkill, but wasn't sure.

Thank you, this is awesome BTW.

The salary range question on the application is given a random number between 15 and 35, could this be done in a more convincing way? I'm assuming it was written with the thought that "15" means "I expect a salary of $15,000." But then why wouldn't it just be 15000?

It's also asks for "Salary Range," so maybe we should be inputting something like "$25,000-$30,000" or "20k-25k"
Also, I don't think anyone is looking specifically for a salary of "17k" or "31k", I feel like it should be multiples of 5k

You might be interested in the fact you both hit front page on Hacker News 🎉 and got a free code review 😂

Fun project idea!

Thinking it might help obfuscate applications if each resume is custom and aligns with the rest of the data present. Willing to work on it just want to know if its something worth completing first

failed to fill out app and submit: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":"//*[@id="109:topBar"]"}

love what you've done here. am rearchitecting to make easier to extend for other unions in the future with some prior webscraping code i've written. absolutely LOVE the resume generator. would love to work together, solidarity forever <3

I'm on a mac, I have everything installed and set up. When I run the bot, and it goes to create an account, I get this error message: FAILED TO CREATE ACCOUNT: list index out of range

What am I doing wrong?

You can write a GitHub Action that generates a new resume with a new filename and different content so that it's not flagged by the file being the same and having the exact same hash.

The striking workers have come to an agreement with kelloggs. We can still work on this as a more general bot (see #56), but for now, we have succeeded.

This seems much harder to get around, yeah?

Lines 134 & 135 occasional throw a "no such element" error, which breaks the main while loop and exits the script. I fixed it by putting a simple try/except block around lines 131-172. Didn't make a pull request cause there's definitely a better solution.

This is on Debian Sid, so technically unsupported regardless, but perhaps the fix will be something simple.

When using either python which seems to be the correct python version based on the README, or python3, I get syntax errors, yet they're different depending on the version of python used. I don't know python well enough yet to say why this is happening, but perhaps you'll have an idea.

python == Python 2.7.18

  File "req.py", line 11
    print = functools.partial(print, flush=True)
          ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

python3 == Python 3.9.9

python3 req.py
  File "/home/valence/src/KelloggBot/req.py", line 75
    match key:
          ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

In light of today's news, is anyone involved in forking this project for a Starbucks-specific re-write? Or is there any other projects working on something similar? Seems like now would be a good time to get on top of it, since the location that fired the workers will likely be trying to hire scabs soon. Thoughts?
