Understanding Application Statuses

Learn what each application status means and what to expect as your applications move through the ApplyBlast process.

Written by Jake

Applied

Applied means your application has been successfully submitted to the employer.

At this point, the employer has received your application and will review it according to their hiring process.

Not every employer sends a confirmation email after receiving an application.

Interview

An employer has contacted you regarding an interview or the next step in their hiring process.

If the employer contacts the ApplyBlast inbox associated with your application, we'll automatically forward those messages to your personal email.

Offer

Congratulations!

This status indicates that an employer has extended a job offer.

Rejected

The employer has decided not to move forward with your application.

While disappointing, this is a normal part of the job search process and does not necessarily reflect your qualifications.

Reviewing

Reviewing means your application is still being processed before it's submitted to the employer.

Some applications require additional processing depending on the employer's application flow. This is completely normal, and no action is required on your end.

Once processing is complete, the status will automatically update to Applied.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How long does Reviewing usually take?

Most applications move through Reviewing automatically in under 24 hours. Some employers have more complex application processes, which can occasionally result in longer processing times.


Do I need to keep my browser open?

No.

Applications are processed on our servers, so you can safely close your browser after enabling Auto Apply.


Will I receive employer emails?

Yes.

Employer emails sent to your ApplyBlast application inbox are automatically forwarded to your personal email.


Why didn't I receive a confirmation email?

Not every employer sends confirmation emails after an application is submitted.

As long as your application status shows Applied, your application has been successfully submitted.


Can I edit an application after it's has been submitted?

Unfortunately, no.

Once an application has been submitted to an employer, it cannot be modified or resubmitted.
