Have you ever made one small change in your job search and been surprised by how much it helped? I’ve noticed that applying within the first 24 hours of a job posting going live seems to make a bigger difference than I expected. Same resume, same background, but somehow it feels like the application has a better shot before the pile gets too big. Curious what small thing others tried that unexpectedly helped.

I recently had an interview with HCL and cleared 2 rounds of technical interview. I waited for a week for HR call but no such call was received.
