What is the workzil job search Chrome extension?
The workzil job search Chrome extension is a free browser add-on that lives inside the job boards you already use. On LinkedIn, Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, and 15+ other sources it overlays an AI fit score on every listing, pre-fills application forms from your saved profile, and saves jobs straight to your workzil tracker — without ever leaving the page you are on.
It is also the bundle's entry point. Most people install the extension first, try one auto-fill on Workday, and never go back to manual entry. From there the matching engine and the tracker get pulled in naturally because they are already sharing the same profile data.
The extension is built to the Chrome Web Store program policies: user-confirmed submissions, least-privilege permissions, no hidden data flows. We optimised for staying in the store, not for the "1,000 silent applies per week" marketing line that gets extensions banned. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics JOLTS report still shows millions of monthly hires happening through standard ATS systems — that is the surface the extension is built around.
How does the workzil Chrome extension work?
1. Install in under 60 seconds
One click from the Chrome Web Store. The extension installs the popup, the sidepanel, and the icon overlay that appears on supported boards.
2. Sign in once
Sign in to your workzil account. Your profile, resume, cover-letter style, and screening-question answers sync to the extension. Saved values are encrypted in your workzil account, not in the browser.
3. Auto-fill on every supported board
Open any supported job posting and the extension pre-fills the application form. Multi-step Workday flows save progress per step so the assistant can resume.
4. You confirm every submission
Each application surfaces a final review screen before anything is sent — required by the Chrome Web Store program policies and the right call for application quality.
5. Capture jobs straight to the tracker
Like a job but not ready to apply? One click drops it into your workzil Kanban with the JD, salary band, and fit score attached.
How is this different from Simplify or the Lazyapply extension?
Simplify is a strong autofill tool with a clean UI; it focuses on speed-of-fill and is mostly stand-alone. Lazyapply markets silent bulk submission, which has repeatedly gotten the extension delisted and gotten candidates ignored by recruiters who spotted the bot patterns.
Workzil sits in the middle — fast autofill + per-job AI tailoring + user-confirmed submission — and it is bundled with the matching engine, the tracker, the cover letter generator, and the AI interview-prep coach so the extension is part of an end- to-end workflow rather than a one-off bot.
- Chrome Web Store compliant — user-confirmed submissions.
- Fit-score overlay on every listing, not just on apply.
- Bundled with matching, auto-apply, tracker, and interview prep.
- No silent submission, ever — your reputation stays clean.
Who is this for?
Adaeze, senior backend engineer in Lagos
Lives in 20 LinkedIn and Greenhouse tabs a day. The fit-score overlay on each listing means she never opens the wrong job in the first place.
Mehmet, recent CS grad in Berlin
Applying to mass-screen new-grad programs at large employers. Workday and iCIMS flows usually take 25 minutes each; the extension cuts that to a one-minute review.
Sigrid, product manager pivoting from fintech to climate tech
Captures every interesting climate-tech role she stumbles across to the tracker for later research. The extension is faster than bookmarking.
Yuki, designer relocating from Tokyo to Amsterdam
Visa-sponsorship questions, Dutch postal codes, and IBAN fields just work — those are the locale gotchas that derail manual applications.

The extension also auto-fills any standard HTML form using your saved profile, so unknown boards still get most of the speedup even without explicit support.
The extension is most useful as part of the bundle
An autofill extension alone saves you minutes. The same extension feeding the same profile into AI matching, the application tracker, and the interview-prep coach compounds: every captured job sharpens tomorrow's matches and feeds the practice loop.
