Best Time to Apply to Job Postings

Posted on: July 27, 2015 Category: Blog

Don’t wait til the job posting deadline.  Industry research from TheLadders reports: “Half of the candidates considered a “fit” for positions applied within 72 hours of the job’s posting. The longer you wait, the harder it is to get an interview.”

Thinking about making a career move this year?  Don’t wait until that ideal job is advertised to update your resume.  Get your marketing tools ready now.  Build a compelling, accomplishment-based resume that highlights your achievements, and compels a recruiter to want to see you.  Then, when that ideal job pops up, you can quickly apply and stand out from other candidates.
