Managing Multiple Applications

Ma Hnin Ei applied to 14 jobs last month -- three on JobNet, four on Facebook groups, two through Viber messages from friends, and five through company career pages. Last Tuesday, she got a call from a company she did not remember applying to. She panicked, asked 'Which position is this for?' and heard a pause on the other end. The HR officer moved to the next candidate. Ma Hnin Ei lost an interview at a company paying 500,000 MMK per month for an admin role -- not because she was unqualified, but because she could not remember her own applications.

Key Takeaway

Your job search is a project, not a prayer. The candidates who get hired are not the ones who apply the most -- they are the ones who can tell you exactly where they applied, when, and why, because they wrote it down before they clicked submit.
