I have applied to 300+ jobs on Glassdoor and recieved 0 interviews. I have 25 years experience as a certified Project Manager. Skill are upto date. On linkedIn I get about 10 percent interview rate. Does anyone hear back about their applications on Glassdoor.

Don't apply to the jobs through linked in or Glassdoor. Go directly to the companies job site and apply there. You will get a better response

like

1. Optimize your LinkedIn

2. 80% of jobs are found through networking. Reach out to your network and explain your situation, skillsets, and your next role. If they can't help, then ask if they can introduce you to someone in their network. Also, attend in person events, which is another good way to network.

3. What about the 20%? Find the Top 10 companies you want to work for and apply to them ferociously. Find that job on LinkedIn and click Apply so your LinkedIn profile gets shared with the job poster and then apply on the company website. 24 hours after applying, reach out to the recruiter or hiring manager or even a mutual connection on linkedin to someone who works at that company.

I totally understand your frustration with the lack of responses on Glassdoor. It can be disheartening despite having extensive experience as a certified Project Manager. It might be worth exploring alternative platforms like JobSolv, an all-in-one job search service tailored for professionals.

I couldn't agree more! Thanks to Jobsolv, I not only found a job that matched my skills but also one that aligned with my long-term career aspirations.

The other commenters have good advice. My data is 30 applications on Glass Door, 20 of them were ghosted/no reply, 10 rejections and no interviews over seven months. Overall interview rate is 10 percent across applications.

Also get referrals, that’ll better your chances at an initial call. Dm for a TikTok referral if you see a fit

I work for a small agency and manage our internal marketing acct. We had very few processes in place when I started. I’ve since created, implemented, and trained our dept. on project mgmt for clients and am trying to convince the owner to apply those principles to our internal jobs. They are resistant because they just want the work to be done and don’t “want to keep spending money on internal jobs”. I’m confused because we’re doing the work either way and “spending” in labor/resources.

6 months pregnant and just laid off. And 40% of my severance was just taken in taxes .. I just spoke with paid family leave and I no longer qualify even though I had been paying into the program (thanks NY).. I already applied for unemployment but doctors are telling me I’ve got 10-14 weeks left in this pregnancy.. so stressed having twins and being unemployed, no maternity leave, no paychecks coming in, and I’ve been applying but not a single interview.. just ugh. 😭
