Quick Tips
12 tips
1
Apply within 48 hours. Response rates drop sharply after the first 3 days a job is posted.
2
Tailor your resume for each role. Mirror keywords from the job description to pass ATS filters.
3
Follow up after 5-7 days. A polite follow-up email can double your callback rate.
4
Quality over quantity. 10 tailored applications beat 50 generic ones every time.
5
Research before every interview. Know the company's recent news, product, and team before you walk in.
6
Always negotiate. 85% of employers expect it. The worst they can say is no.
7
Connect on LinkedIn after interviews. Keeps you visible and top of mind for the recruiter.
8
Track everything in Nymbus. Knowing your response rate by source helps you focus your energy.
9
Use your network before job boards. Referred candidates are 4x more likely to get hired.
10
Don't apply to every job at a company. Pick one role and apply strategically rather than carpet-bombing.
11
Get your LinkedIn "Open to Work" on. Recruiters actively search LinkedIn and this makes you visible to them.
12
Know your numbers. Track your interview rate. If it's below 5%, your resume needs work. Below 20% callbacks means follow up more.
