No job application response
People often submit numerous job applications and never get a response.
A common complaint among job seekers is that they submit numerous applications but never hear back from the employer or recruiter.
The cold, hard truth is that employers and recruiters often receive so many applications that they cannot review hundreds of CVs; it is physically impossible.
So, what can you do to get your application seriously considered and receive that all-important invitation for an interview?
- Stop applying online and competing against hundreds of other candidates
- Stop focusing simply on your resume and look at the broader employment market
- Use a set of job search tools and activities that proactively search for jobs...don't simply wait for a job to be advertised
- Develop a strategy to connect directly with employers that you would like to work for
- Base your job search activities on research and apply for positions that you match the specified criteria by no less tham 95%
- Do not take rejection or no application replies personally
- Obtain good career advice tailored to your personality and situation
