For most people, the answer is “Apply ASAP”.
Which makes sense – we’ve been told we need to apply as early as possible after a job is posted. And then what?
You hope. And you wait to get picked. What if I told you there is a different way?In Jobslands we offer you to take control of the process;
Connect with the decision makers first – this is the way to ensure your CV gets on top of the pile, you get picked and to have an advocate for you throughout the interview process.
Challenge yourself to already have connections within your target employer. This way, you only re-connect with them when the job is posted, rather than scramble to make new connections last minute. Fight the urge to immediately submit your application. Stop waiting to get picked. Take control of your job search process.
