How long does it typically take for a company to respond to a candidate's job application?
Based on the notes for the question I'll ignore the cases where the application is ignored / lost. And cases where the ad is out of date / the role has been filled or the company is building pipeline. The assumptions of this answer are: The role is activeThe applicant meets at least 80% of the job requirements so any reasonable company would be interested in them. The company received the application and it wasn't lost in transit or storage.Average timelines for a Reply:If the person screening CVs isn't on leave: within 5 days. If the person is on leave: 5 to 15 days. If there are multiple involved in screening / shortlisting for first round more than 15 days and sometimes as long as 30 days. Overall average 14 days or less. Key Message: if the job is active, you know that they got your application and you are at least 80% suitable for the job requirements, you should recieve a call or invitation for interview within 2 weeks / 14 days. If you haven't, then it means one of the assumptions isn't true.
