Troubleshooting

1. OpenAI API Rate Limit Errors

Error Message:

openai.RateLimitError: Error code: 429 - {'error': {'message': 'You exceeded your current quota, please check your plan and billing details. For more information on this error, read the docs: https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/error-codes/api-errors.', 'type': 'insufficient_quota', 'param': None, 'code': 'insufficient_quota'}}

Solution:

  • Check your OpenAI API billing settings at https://platform.openai.com/account/billing
  • Ensure you have added a valid payment method to your OpenAI account
  • Note that ChatGPT Plus subscription is different from API access
  • If you've recently added funds or upgraded, wait 12-24 hours for changes to take effect
  • Free tier has a 3 RPM limit; spend at least $5 on API usage to increase

2. Incorrect Information in Job Applications

Issue: Bot provides inaccurate data for experience, CTC, and notice period

Solution:

  • Update prompts for professional experience specificity
  • Add fields in config.yaml for current CTC, expected CTC, and notice period
  • Modify bot logic to use these new config fields

3. YAML Configuration Errors

Error Message:

yaml.scanner.ScannerError: while scanning a simple key

Solution:

  • Copy example config.yaml and modify gradually
  • Ensure proper YAML indentation and spacing
  • Use a YAML validator tool
  • Avoid unnecessary special characters or quotes

4. Bot Logs In But Doesn't Apply to Jobs

Issue: Bot searches for jobs but continues scrolling without applying

Solution:

  • Check for security checks or CAPTCHAs
  • Verify config.yaml job search parameters
  • Ensure your account profile meets job requirements
  • Review console output for error messages

5. General Troubleshooting Tips

  • Use the latest version of the script
  • Verify all dependencies are installed and updated
  • Check internet connection stability
  • Clear browser cache and cookies if issues persist
