I got a message on LinkedIn about a job, it seems legit. The issue is as soon as I replied, she basically told me to apply as quickly as possible because it’s time sensitive.
I don’t know why this kind of rubs me the wrong way, I guess because I’m in a different time zone and I’m expected to literally drop everything for a job I might not even have an actual chance for.
Also she is the person who I would be working with, my potential future boss, and also the co owner of the company.
Am I overreacting? It just seems unnecessarily stressful idk. Also I’m very afraid of red flags now cause I ignored them at my last company and it was a nightmare.
I mean the co owner is legit, and I can’t find anything bad about the company online.
The application requires an email and asks what country I live in. I haven’t gotten to any scam part yet, but it’s weird how she hasn’t replied to my message in almost an hour despite saying I need to apply quickly. Does that mean she’s over it and I shouldn’t apply?
People have meetings which might be longer than an hour. If she’s presenting something, it might be a bit weird if she told her audience that she needs to answer a message.
I mean it’s been like 2 hrs now, do you think I should still apply? It’s gonna be a rushed application anyways so idk
People have meetings that are longer than two hours, or one meeting ends and the next starts immediately. If you want to apply then do it.
