Job application follow-up planner

Enter the date you applied. You get two follow-up dates and a calendar file, so the reminder lives where you already look.

Follow-up schedule

Your follow-up dates

Enter the date you applied to see when to follow up.

Things to take note

1. The planner adds the number of days in your chosen schedule to the date you applied. If a result lands on a Saturday or Sunday, it moves to the Monday after, because a message sent on a weekend tends to sit unread until then.

2. The schedules are rules of thumb, not guarantees. A posting that says "we will contact shortlisted candidates by 30 November" overrides them. Nothing you type leaves your browser and the calendar file is made on your device.

3. Not sure what to write? Read how to follow up after applying, then use the follow-up email template.
