Is There a Bad Day to Apply for a Job?

Written by Bernie

Bernie Frazier, SPHR is the Founder and President of CAREERCompass, LLC, a speaking and career coaching firm in St. Louis, MO. She also spent almost 25 years recruiting talent to six organizations across four industries and led the talent acquisition function for four of those organizations, including one global team.

 The short answer….no!  I think there’s this myth out there that if you apply for a job on a Monday or Friday, the recruiter might be in a bad mood and “ding” you.  Not true.  Just because you apply for a job on one of those days doesn’t mean the recruiter will review your resume as soon as you hit the SEND button.  Recruiters work the task of reviewing resumes into their schedule just like they do every other aspect of their jobs.

If you’re qualified for a position, the only bad day there is to apply is the day you don’t apply!

Until next time….
