I just applied to a job Friday night and was intending to call around Tuesday. However the job posted is open for a certain period only which is until October 11th and I applied on the first day it was posted, should I still call Tuesday?

Clearly I knew no one was going to be following up and the application period had ended. However I recently search and they opened up the same position again so I applied, but now on the portal it shows my two applications. Should I withdraw the first one? Or is it better for them to know I originally applied as well…. Hi Ellin, Thank you for joining the conversation!

Beyond that, I would wait and see if any responses come based on the timeline defined by the employer. Some of the jobs I apply for have over applicants.

If I were a hiring manager, and all of the applicants called me, I think I would be quite annoyed. What are your thoughts on this? Hey Emma! Otherwise, it never hurts to keep in contact with a potential employer within a reasonable time frame.
