When Should You Apply for a Job? Here's How to 8X Your Odds! 📈

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 ❤️
