The worst times to apply!
The worst day and time to apply for a job is typically late Friday afternoon or over the weekend. Here's why:
Friday afternoons: Hiring managers are winding down for the week and unlikely to prioritize new applications. Your resume may get buried by Monday.
Weekends: Applications submitted on Saturday or Sunday are often overlooked or get pushed down by the time recruiters check their inboxes on Monday morning.
Late at night (any day): Applications sent after business hours are less likely to be seen at the top of the inbox when the recruiter logs in the next day. #AWU #disability #jobs

"Post Interview Tip "
Don’t ruin a great interview with a bad follow-up. In the last stages of the interview process, make sure you send a thank you email to all involved, and don’t:
Ramble in your follow-up. A polite, concise follow-up is great. Don't ramble on about why you deserve the job. That is a big mistake. Keep your follow-ups professional and to the point. #AWU #disability #jobs #interviewtips
