I'm trying to find a way to efficiently upload 30,000 resumes from my computer into my applicant tracking system (ATS). I've previously tried using tools like Claude and Zapier, but they didn't work out for me. These resumes need to be processed through a resume parser in my ATS to automatically fill the necessary fields. The ATS does have an API, which I think I can leverage to automate the process. Currently, if I were to do this manually, I can only upload 100 resumes at a time and I'd have to wait for each batch to finish before starting another. That's why I'm looking for a more automated solution.

It sounds like you're on the right track with the API! You might want to consider developing a small client application that interfaces with it. Here are a couple of options:
1. Hire a software developer to create this for you if you're not comfortable with coding.
2. Alternatively, you could try using a different AI tool. If you're looking to write a program, providing the API documentation might help the AI generate a suitable program in a language you're familiar with, like PowerShell. You could prompt it with something like, "Given the API documentation at [location], can you create a PowerShell script that uploads batches of 30,000 resumes from a specific directory?" This could streamline the process significantly.
If you decide to hire someone, the rates can vary widely, but you can expect to pay anywhere from $25 to $150 per hour based on their experience. It might be worth discussing a flat rate for the entire project instead, especially if you have a tight budget.
