Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

A number in mind

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
