I have a friend who’s looking for a job and I have been forwarding her job ads I saw online. I don’t know her qualifications so I just sent her the ads I thought were suitable for her.
Then, I saw a post of one recruiter saying that applicants need not apply if they do not meet ALL the qualifications and requirements listed in the ad. Due to the high volume of job seekers at this time, applying to every job available is eating up the recruiter’s time as they have to review each application only to find out that the applicant is not qualified.
As some job ads list a lot of qualifications you have to meet and describe the perfect candidate, should/would you still apply for these jobs even if you did not meet all the requirements? Have you applied to a job you’re not qualified for? Did you get the job?
The article: How To Get A Job You're Not Qualified For (https://www.forbes.com/sites/lizryan...-qualified-for) might shed some light on this. Anyone ever wrote a Pain Letter before?
