> QA is one of the most popular ways into IT, so competition for junior roles is high. Regular applications with a letter written for the job stand out here.

## What job posts ask for most

- Test design, test cases, bug reports
- API testing (Postman), SQL
- For automation: Playwright, Cypress, Selenium; Java, Python or TypeScript
- CI/CD, Git
- English for documentation and communication

## How to set up filters in AutoApply

Separate Manual and Automation: if you want automation only, set the tool (Playwright, Selenium) and the language.

Stop words in the job title drop what does not fit you: for example "Manual" if you want automation only, or "Support".

## A short sample letter

The recruiter reads the first lines, so the letter must be short and concrete. A sample the AI adapts to each job:

"Hello! I am applying for the QA Automation Engineer role. I have tested web apps and APIs for two years and write automated tests with Playwright and TypeScript, which I set up to run in GitHub Actions. I would be glad to talk."

## Tips

- Show a sample bug report or tests on GitHub: it beats a list of tools.
- Say what exactly you tested: web, mobile, APIs, payments.
- Apply every day: junior QA jobs close fast.
