Be Speedy
One way to stand out in the applicant pool is to be speedy and reliable.
- Send a thank you email within 5 minutes of the interview
- Be first to apply (i.e. pitch) for a job
- Respond to emails within 24 hours consistently
Build your reputation. Companies will like pretty-talented-and-reliable over very-talented-and-unreliable.
Craft.co
Before you pitch a company, you want to learn about them. Where to start? We’ve mentioned Crunchbase, but you can also use Craft.co to learn about their funding rounds, competitors, revenue, key people, and more.
