Dear Candidate

E.2.2: Mind your Digital Applicant Footprint


Listen Later

A lot of candidates do what I call spra-pplying so basically you spray your CV like a water from a sprinkler system and you pray and hope that one of them will convert.

This is not a Job search strategy, in actual fact, it is an action layered on a lack of information and sometimes Laziness, sorry to say but it’s the truth in most cases


Now I know that applying to jobs can be time consuming, tiring and even annoying particularly when you are not getting any call backs, I completely understand.


Another issue: some candidates even apply to different unrelated roles within the same company without considering the fact that companies have a system through which your applications are processed and when I say system think : connectivity meaning everything is linked because you are the same applicant.


So just randomly applying doesn’t really work.


Please read the Job description and the requirements for the role and ensure your CV clearly showcases the value you bring to the table.


My book clearly helps you with that so you should grab a copy if you haven’t done that yet.


Till next time,

Apply Smart

And remember all you need is just one yes
