　　Do you know what is the best time to submit a job application?

　　你知道提交工作申請最佳時間是什么時候嗎?

　　This is a great question and one I've pondered before myself. While it's important to jump on a listing as soon as you can get your material together, I don't think there is any reason to get hung up on the time of day you submit your initial correspondence or application.

　　這個問題提得很好，我自己之前就思考過這個問題。重點在于盡快填好反饋信息表連同你的工作申請材料一起提交這才是最重要的，我認(rèn)為沒有任何理由非得刻意去挑什么所謂理想的一天甚至具體到這天的幾點幾分來提交你的初次基本反饋信息表或工作申請表。

　　Each hiring manager will have his or her own process for reviewing the applications that come in and a set deadline for filling the position. I believe it's more important to make sure your cover letter is flawless and that your correspondence is impressive than it is to be concerned with the time you submit it. On the off chance the hiring manager is the type of person who pays attention to the time you submit your application, sending an email early in the morning — as in between 6 and 9 a.m. — could be impressive because it says you are an enthusiastic early bird.

　　每一位人事經(jīng)理對工作申請都會有他/她自己的一套審查程序，并且對空缺職位的招聘期限也都是設(shè)定好了的。我認(rèn)為重點在于你要確認(rèn)你的求職信沒有任何問題，你的初次基本反饋信息能給人留下深刻印象，而重點并不在于你在提交時間上投入過多精力。人事經(jīng)理不大可能糾結(jié)于你提交工作申請的時間，特意關(guān)注你是不是在上午的6點~9點這個時間段發(fā)送，這個時間很可能會給人留下深刻印象，就像人們常說的，早起的鳥兒有蟲吃。

　　That being said, make sure to keep the hiring manager's schedule in mind if you decided to make a follow-up call. My advice in that case is to call during business hours on a lower stress day of the week like Tuesday or Wednesday and plan what you will say in advance.

　　話雖如此，為做到萬無一失，如果你還想打個電話確認(rèn)一下的話，那么，記好人事經(jīng)理的日常工作安排。在這種情況下，我建議你挑人事經(jīng)理工作不是很緊張的一天打電話，在周二或周四的上班時間打電話，并且提前想好你打電話要說的內(nèi)容。
