Current Events > Should I be applying for multiples of the same position in the same place?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Like, say an organization just put out six different job listings that have the exact same description and wants except that it's just a different job # to differentiate them, should I just apply to them all with the exact same stuff?

If you really want to get the job you need to go to the office, walk right up to the boss man, look him in the eye, give him a firm handshake, and tell him, "I'm your man."

only 1 application. they'll see it as desperate and won't offer a chance.

Alright, any other takers before I submit this one?

Are they in the same office? If it's the same office, 1 will probably be enough. If they're different offices apply to them all.

They're in the same hospital, but I suppose 3/6 of them are listed as one location and the other three are listed in another area, but they're the same hospital location still (like I'm pretty sure it's the exact same address via google)

they're probably listed separately because that's how many open positions they have but ultimately for the same job

So, just apply to one then? What if they just choose one of the listings that I didn't apply for and take all their candidates from there?

each requisition should only be one hire

So if I applied to just one and someone was more qualified for an interview, I'd be screwed out since I didn't apply to the others?

A. Nope. If youre hoping to send multiple applications for the same job, typically the applicant tracking system (ATS) wont even let you do thisyoull likely get a notice saying youve already applied. If youre applying for the same job listed several times, that really wont increase your chances of getting an interview, either.

If there are multiple positions you would be willing to take I would just apply to the best one and then in your cover letter mention that if the hiring manager feels you would be a good fit for another position as well to let you know.
