Here are the 6 foolish mistakes people make when searching for a job
1. Being too aggressive with follow-up
As much as we tend to be super excited or anxious about landing a good paying job, you must understand the difference between being assertive and aggressive.
You might think cozying up or stalking the hiring manager will expand your chances but if you are a top candidate, you could ruin it by being too aggressive.
Unless the hiring manager has given you a different timeline, you should be patient and wait at least a week before following up.
