Rule # 6 – “Deliver What You Promise”
Dear Matt,
Thanks for applying to Software Advice.
We want you to know that a real human being looks at every single application, including yours.
If we think that there might be a fit, we’ll get in touch to schedule a telephone interview.
On average, we get about 100 applications per job post. We telephone interview about twenty of those.
Ten of those go through a series of in person interviews, projects, and events.
We usually end up hiring one or two of the original 100.
Rule # 6 – “Deliver What You Promise”
Why do we share all of this?
Because we truly wish we could meet everyone who applies, and we feel badly that we simply cannot.
By providing a little perspective, we hope you understand the challenge we face as hiring managers.
Regardless, we are truly grateful that you have applied.
We wish you the best of luck.
Sincerely,
The Software Advice Team
