Applying over the Xmas break?
Applying over the Xmas break?
Hi there, just a quick question, do you think it would be pointless to apply during the Xmas break, as few admins will be there, and when they return, they'll probably have a full inbox of stuff to go through? Should I wait until after the break to apply? Any advice is appreciated.
Not at All
Of course you should apply as soon as possible. Some positions dont stay available for long, and the cost of applying in so far as emailing your resume and cover letter to a school is so minimally small. That being said, admins often work and do what they have to over the holidays all the time. They may not interview, but we often use this time to catch up on tasks. Second, remember that Christmas isnt as big a deal in all parts of the world as it is in the USA, etc. For some people with Christmas being on a weekend this year and mid term breaks only get a week or so off.
