With so much competition out there, even the slightest knowledge can give you the edge you need to stand out and land your dream job.
Here, we have compiled a list of the best days and best times to check and apply for jobs on
Bayt.com:
The Best and Worst Days
The best days:
According to our data,
Tuesdays and
Wednesdays are the best days to apply for jobs. This could be due to the fact that this is the middle of the week. Managers would have spent enough time on the first two days of the week - i.e. Sunday and Monday - to think of what to put in a job description and when to post the job.
The so-so days:
The days which face a slight drop in the number of job postings are
Thursdays and
Sundays. According to our experts, there are less job postings on Thursdays due to the fact that it’s the end of the week and hiring managers are overcome with bouts of laissez-aller and thoughts about the impending weekend! On Sundays, managers are probably catching up with work after the weekend, and therefore do not post any jobs.
The unpopular days:
Our data shows that the weekend is the least favorite option for employers to post their jobs. In fact,
Fridays and
Saturdays have the lowest number of new job postings.
The Best and Worst Times
The best times:
The best time to apply for a job is between
11 am and 5 pm. These timings clash with working hours which makes it a bit tricky to apply for jobs if you’re at work. You can always download the
Bayt.com mobile app through which you can apply for jobs any time and anywhere directly from your smartphone.
The worst times:
The timings with the least number of new job postings, as expected, is between
1 am and 5 am - only 1 to 9 new jobs are posted on the website during this time.
So there they are, the best days and times to check and
