How to connect Guap to ChatGPT and use it to find jobs

Plenty of people already ask ChatGPT for help with their job search: rewriting a CV, preparing for an interview, working out what to apply for. The catch is that ChatGPT does not know which jobs are open right now, or anything about you, unless you paste it in.

Connecting Guap fixes that. ChatGPT can look up real open roles on Guap, read your profile and keep track of your applications, all from the same chat. You can ask it to:

• Find jobs that fit you, with a rough fit score for each one based on your Guap profile.
• Explain a job: what it involves, what it asks for and how to apply.
• Save jobs to your Guap list for later.
• Review your profile and suggest what to add. It shows you each change first.
• Tailor your CV to a job, using only facts from your own profile.
• Draft an application, which you then approve in Guap before it is sent.
• Check on your applications and where each one stands.

• A Guap job seeker account. Sign up with your email if you do not have one. You sign in with a code sent to your inbox.
• ChatGPT in a browser. OpenAI's guide has you add a custom MCP server on chatgpt.com. Once it is added, you can use it in the ChatGPT apps too.
• Access to custom MCP servers on your plan. OpenAI decides which plans can add one, and that has changed over time. On a Business, Enterprise or Edu workspace, your admin controls it.

1. Copy Guap's address. On guap.work/mcp, click Copy address and open ChatGPT. The address is https://api.guap.work/user/mcp.
2. Open Plugins in ChatGPT. On chatgpt.com, open Plugins, click the + button, then Add custom MCP server.
3. Fill in the details. Name it Guap, paste the address and choose OAuth for authentication. Leave any client ID and secret fields empty: Guap does not need them. Click Add.
4. Sign in to Guap and approve. ChatGPT opens a Guap page. Sign in with the code from your email, tick what ChatGPT may do and click Approve. If ChatGPT shows Guap with an Install or Connect button first, click it.
5. Try it. In a new chat, add Guap from the + menu, or type @ and pick Guap. Then ask: "Find me remote junior design roles."

There is no special syntax. Ask the way you normally would:

• "Find me entry level data analyst jobs in Amsterdam."
• "Show me paid internships in marketing and tell me which ones fit me best."
• "What does this job actually want? Am I a good match?"
• "Look at my Guap profile. What would make it stronger?"
• "Tailor my CV to the junior UX role you just found."
• "Draft an application for that job. What do you still need from me?"
• "Which of my applications are still waiting for a reply?"

You decide what ChatGPT gets when you connect. On the Guap page, reading jobs, your profile and your CVs, and drafting applications, start ticked. Sending applications and spending credits are never ticked for you.

• You approve every application. ChatGPT can prepare one, but to send it, it gives you a link to Guap. You check the answers there, answer the consent questions yourself and approve or decline.
• Sensitive details are never shared. Your visa status, gender, ethnicity, disability, veteran status and pronouns stay in Guap. ChatGPT only sees whether you filled them in.
• Your contact details are yours to edit. ChatGPT cannot change your name, email, phone or location.
• You can see what it did. Guap logs each action, and you can read the list in your settings.

Anything ChatGPT reads from Guap is sent to OpenAI and handled under its terms.

In Guap, open Settings, then Connected AI apps, and disconnect ChatGPT. That page also lists what ChatGPT did while it was connected. You can remove the Guap plugin in ChatGPT as well, from your plugins.

• There is no Add custom MCP server option. Your plan or your workspace may not allow custom servers. On a work account, ask your ChatGPT admin.
• ChatGPT asks for a client ID or secret. Make sure OAuth is selected and leave both fields empty.
• Guap says this account cannot connect apps. Only job seeker accounts can connect an AI for now. Sign in with your job seeker account.
• The Guap page says the link has expired. Start the connection again from ChatGPT.
• ChatGPT answers without using Guap. Add Guap to the chat from the + menu or with @, then ask again.
