Keystrokes - How long does it usually take to get a response - question

Posted: Jun 17, 2011

How long does it usually take to get a response after you've emailed your resume for an open position? Thanks!

I am in the same boat as you - madmamma

I hope someone will know something, as I have also sent in a resume. I got an automated response about how they were looking at everyone;s resumes blah, blah blah...but that was a few days ago.

I wish you lots of luck!!! :) Maybe we will both hear something soon.

whoops! meant "everyone's" - madmamma

I just got a call today - madmamma

OK I just got a call from the main recruiter, and I am supposed to get a call from a recruiter in the area that I would be working in if I took the job. I have to get more specifics. So it took 3 days to get an initial call. Yes I got email right after I first sent in my resume saying they were reviewing all resumes and if they were interested, they would be calling. That is all it said.

I got that e-mail yesterday - waiting too

Saying that they were reviewing my resume/application to see if my qualifications meet any of the openings and that would contact me to let me know either way.

I hope to hear soon. My company who said they never run out of work, keeps running out of work during the week and then "mysteriously" being overloaded on the weekends. Yet, I have seen an AD for them in the past 3 weeks. UGH

It is like that at the company I work for. - Everybody wants to work weekdays. sm

So there is a glut of MTs on the weekdays. Weekends end up being slighted, so there is always work on the weekends. When I hire onto a MTSO, I ask for the schedule where the work is, and that always includes Friday, Saturday, and Sunday--evenings are best. I don't run out of work now.

same here - nada

I talked to them today. The lady I talked to said they have had over 500 resumes sent this week. s - Hopeful

[ In Reply To ..]
She said that their goal is to get back to every person within the next several days and have all 80 positions filled by the end of next week.

Good luck!

Thank you - for letting me know

I was asking for my sister. She applied for the otolaryngology position. Thanks again!

keep that in mind (500 resumes) because it's like that for all companies - posting jobs. NM

I'm just curious if others are in the same boat as I am.

I think I have received two replies out of probably 20 resumes sent. Is this pretty much the way it is for others, or do I need to tweak my resume? Thanks! ...

"You might want to consider re-wording your job posting and re-think your position as you can find yourself in serious trouble with the IRS regarding requiring an independent contractor to work a set schedule. You are wanting an employee, not an independent contractor, if that contractor has to work a set schedule and 'has to work over.' The IRS will come down pretty hard on you...especially if someone sends them a copy of your job posting. So you understand ...

Yeah for sure. what goes does it do to send resumes to these jobs posted here, when you get NO response... I realize they have more resumes than they can probably go through, but when they look at the top of your resume (where it should be) and see you have had over 25 years experience - you think they'd contact you first, yeah whatever. Not sure, but know MT jobs are scarce!! ...

Sorry...you had asked me a question but I've been away for a couple days. Yes, Home Health/Hospice is more flexible as far as scheduling. For the most part, we set up our own schedules, call the patients ourselves with times we expect to be there, and then if by some chance we get done early we aren't required to hang around to get our 8 hours in. That being said, it's a brutal job. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who doesn't have some solid acute ca ...

I've sent out a few resumes over the past year in hopes of landing a different MT job than the one I have now. Only ONE place (a hospital I would dearly love to work for!) even acknowledged my application. The others? NOTHING. Even though they continued to run ads for the same job I had applied for. I never even got to test for any of them. So.... fast forward a few months (or years). Suppose one of these no-response companies kept my resume and out ...

Anyone see the ad on this and another job board about needing an MT who speaks FRENCH? What the heck has our industry come to that MTSOs will suck up to any foreigner and do ANYTHING whether it's right or not just to make a fast buck. The medical record is supposed to be on the chart in English in this country for legal reasons. I hope if anyone here speaks French they DON'T apply.

company and my pay was cut 23% at one time. You say good management-this company has a rep for this kind of stuff.

Blondie, Opti-Script does allow satellite.
