Apple gets over 50 applicants for every job, every day, says survey
Jobs at Apple are among the most highly sought after in the US, with only Netflix, Amazon, and Microsoft attracting more applicants.
Apple’s Tim Cook has said that the company is “very deliberate on our hiring,” as it’s mostly avoided the kind of mass layoffs that other technology firms have repeatedly made. It is still recruiting, though, and a new report says that it is consistently attracting among the greatest number of applicants.Resume.io used LinkedIn’s facility to show how many people have applied for a particular job. “Sure, seeing a large number of applicants for a job posted just two days ago can be disheartening,” says Resume.io in a blog post, “but it’s a feature that can also paint a clear picture of which companies are the most fiercely competitive to apply to and which are not nearly as popular.”
