Searching for a new job can be stressful. With the increasing competition and high saturation of the job market, it’s harder now than ever before to receive interviews and job offers from employers.

A few decades ago, getting a job was relatively simple. At one point, all job hunters needed to do was hand out paper copies of their resumes and wait for a phone call. Fast forward to 2022 and the job market looks very different.

Now, applying for a job involves filling in online forms, writing an impressive cover letter, and sending over proof of qualifications and work experience. It’s a process that takes several weeks from making your application to your first day on the job, and it can often feel disheartening when you receive a rejection from a job that you had your eyes on.

Using Tools to Improve Your Job Applications

Whether you’re applying for roles within your dream career or you’re searching for work to generate a stream of income during your studies, using the right tools will set you up for job hunting success. There are several online tools and software that you can take advantage of to maximize your job opportunities.

Using the right tools will improve your job application efficiency. They can save you a lot of time and energy creating a high-quality application, meaning you can apply for more jobs in a shorter period of time

Because there are so many tools out there, knowing which ones to use can be tough. To help you decide on the best tools to help you with your job applications, we’ve compiled a list of top-quality resources below.

Tools to Use When Applying for New Jobs

Give these top tools a go when searching and applying for new jobs to streamline the process and optimize your applications to impress every employer.

Resume Writing Tools

Your resume is the first thing that an employer sees when viewing your job application. If your resume doesn’t immediately impress the employer, they might dismiss your application before reading through it.

So, creating the perfect resume should be one of your top priorities when you’re on the hunt for a new job. You can use the same general template for all of your job applications but you will also need to add some industry-specific details to your resume if you’re applying to several different roles.

To make your resume writing easier, you can use free online tools. There are websites and software that create professional resume templates, so all you need to do is fill in your personal information and experience.

The alternative option is to look online for professional resume writing services. You can look at a comparison of top resume creators in Australia using third-party websites. Take a look at the prices that they are charging, their expertise, and their previous client’s reviews.

An expert resume writer will be able to guide you through the process of creating a top-quality resume that impresses every employer. Using this type of service will maximize your chances of receiving multiple job offers.

Social Media Platforms

As odd as it might sound, social media can be one of the best ways to spot new jobs. Platforms like LinkedIn and Facebook are popular places for employers to post their job vacancies and scout candidates.

An impressive 95 Job applications are submitted via LinkedIn every second, and three people are hired every minute on the platform.

To maximize your reach and visibility as an expert job hunter, set up professional profiles on a variety of social media platforms. Make sure to highlight your strengths and experience in a particular field to show employers that you have a lot to offer.

If you’re not sure what to include in your social media profiles, take a look at the profiles of other professionals in your desired field of work. Identify what key skills and strengths they have highlighted on their profiles, look at their profile photos, and emulate their written content.

Searchable Job Trackers

It can be difficult to keep on top of phone calls and emails when you’re applying to multiple jobs at a time. You can use a searchable job tracker to make tracking the progress of your applications and monitoring your conversations with employers easier.

Job trackers can automatically create spreadsheets, tables, and graphs to simplify your job applications. You can edit and adjust the features on the tracker to meet your needs and preferences. Using this type of tool will ensure you don’t miss any replies from employers after applying for one of their job vacancies.

Online Calendar

As with searchable job trackers, online calendars make tracking your job applications and responses much easier. You can schedule your calls and interviews into your calendar to make sure you don’t miss any key dates.

Many online calendars or apps automatically synch up to your emails and input your upcoming meetings so you don’t need to do anything manually. Using an automatic calendar scheduler also ensures you don’t double book and maximizes your organization with minimal effort. You can attend all of your meetings on time and appear professional to every hiring manager that you meet.

Spelling and Grammar Checker

When writing your cover letters and resumes for different jobs, it’s easy to miss minor errors in your spelling or grammar. Luckily, there is plenty of free software that you can download to your laptop or phone to check over your content.

Spelling and grammar checkers will highlight any typos or mistakes in your writing, and may also provide suggestions on how to optimize your sentence structure. Employers might dismiss your application straight away if it’s full of errors, so using an online checker will prevent you from receiving an immediate rejection from recruiters and hiring managers.
