You need to be connected

EY2 - it doesn’t.

Use the web version if you want to delay a message. Then it doesn't matter if your PC is on or off.

You’re computer has to be on and outlook open for delayed delivery to work.

This. Although your computer can be locked and they’ll still go out.

Your computer has to be on and connected to the internet, can’t be in sleep mode either.

If you use the web outlook then it will send regardless of whether your computer is on or not.

What’s the issue with sending emails at night? I see no point in pretending you’re not working when you are.

Let me rephrase.... it seems like you’re going to a lot of trouble to not *bother* anyone. People elect their own push notifications and if someone doesn’t want late night emails let them handle it. People can also have opinions on working hours. However, delaying emails = delaying a response to your email. It is in everyone’s best interest that you either ignore whatever pressure you’re getting or discuss it with that person. No one should care when you work and you’re complicating a non issue. If someone cares that is their problem. Period.

Hey guys. I got referral from a manager in EY on last Friday and submitted my application on Friday night.

Can people not get an interview with right qualification and a referral from a manager? At least I really want to get an interview. I’m so desperately wanting to leave a firm.
