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

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

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