Remember number 2... slow down, this is not a sprint
2. Applying ASAP Okay, so you’ve narrowed down your list of companies, and one of them just posted a role that’s exactly in line with your skill set. Awesome! So you crank out everything as fast as possible and hit “send”—wanting to be the first application the hiring manager sees. Not only will you show just how excited you are about the job, but maybe the team will love your application so much they won’t need to interview anyone else.
News flash: This rarely does you any favors.
