I tracked what time alerts hit my inbox from a bunch of different job boards.

Most surprising: 26% of my alerts arrived between 12am and 4am!

Overall findings (PDT)
Each job board has a different peak time and pattern.
Saturday was the busiest day (17% of alerts). Weekdays are similar to weekends.
Check twice a day. Morning covers overnight alerts, evening check covers the rest.
Does alert location impact send time? It's not clear. Glassdoor sends remote jobs at 10am AND 11pm.

Wow, thanks for putting this together! Do you think that how quickly you apply to a job is significantly going to impact your likelihood to get an interview?

I think being in the first "group" of candidates is important. I also noticed that within a day or so there's often several applies shown on LinkedIn.

When I was hiring, I would usually check candidates after a few days and then schedule. So earlier is probably better.

I checked Monster also and all alerts arrive around 6am Pacific Time.
