Application Process

As you begin to apply to the jobs that you have found through

job hunting, you may begin to feel overwhelmed. You need to

apply to many job openings to get the perfect job.

Because you are applying to many jobs, you need to stay

organized with your job hunt. This organization will help you to succeed and get the job that you want.

One of the most important ways to stay organized when you are

applying to jobs is to follow the same process every time that

you apply. This will help you to get into a routine as you apply to the many jobs that you have found.

Follow whatever instructions may exist on the help wanted ad on how the employer wants you to apply to their job opening. This is a very important indicator to prospective employers about

whether you can follow directions.

Some companies may want you to email them your resume as a

word attachment.

Some will want you to cut and paste your resume into the main

email. Another option that some companies use is that they will prefer you to apply directly through their web site for all job openings.

Do whatever the company that you are applying for requests.

After you have applied to the job, you will want to follow up with the employer. This is a way to check and make sure that they

received your application and to check on the status of it.

The best time frame to wait for the follow up after sending in an application is a week. This will give the company time to look

over your application. You can do this follow up through a phone call or email.

To make sure that you keep track of all the applications that you send out, it is good to use an application-tracking sheet.

Nothing is worse then receiving a call from a possible employer to set up and interview and you cannot remember applying to

them.
