What's the most HEART-BREAKING moment in a job search? 💔
To paraphrase Alanis Morissette, "It's meeting the job of my dreams... and then meeting her ancient posting date..." ;)
Why do job posting dates matter?
Think of it this way: For a recruiter, the day after posting a job is like Christmas morning. 🎅🏻
🎄 The tree/job posting is bright and festive
🎁 The presents/applications are new and irresistible
⚡️ And so you can't resist diving in and ripping open the goodies/resumes
But a week after posting is more like New Year's morning.
🤢 You're hungover/sick of resumes
🍂 The tree/job posting is starting to look like an eyesore
🏁 You just want the whole thing to be over so you can move on to new holidays/roles
So it should come as no surprise that Talentworks Inc found there was an 8X advantage to applying within the first 96 hours of a job being posted.
Which means THREE things for you:
1) Set job alerts to get notified as soon as a job is posted ⚡️
2) Be the beautiful 🎁, not the guy humming carols in January 😩
3) Share this gift TODAY since job-seekers need a little extra love right now ❤️
