If I Developed a Job Applicant Website
Location | New York
I am 100% positive that everyone has gone through the job search and felt that frustration that everyone gets with terrible job application systems. If I developed a Job Applicant Website, it’d feature the following:
Main Features
- Candidate Profile (with generic resume and generic cover letter)
- Search Openings
- Saved Searches
- Submitted Jobs (with status of Submitted, Under Review, Not Seeking Candidacy + date and update statuses)
- Job Cart
Special Features
- Each job would allow a new version of a resume and cover letter (No limits)
- If a position has been filled, HR must close out the job description and send out an email (even if computer generated) to all applicants
- Essential Questionnaire for hiring managers “Rank your Excel Skills from 1-10” with scale
I just wish that the HR business would actually evolve into something better. I haven’t seen any change since I first started applying for jobs.
If only things were that easy.
