Q: Response time taken?

I recently submitted an application and would like to know how long it typically takes for recruiters to respond. Also, I would appreciate any advice or recommendations on how to strengthen my applications and improve my chances of being shortlisted.

Nobody can tell you that!

 

You could look at no-response-time in two ways:

 

1. 'Nobody is interested in your CV and hiring you ...';

 

or

 

2. 'Never, ever stop sending your CV to the daily posted job openings and simply disregard no-replies thingy!'

 

It's wrong, to expect replies from the Chinese advertisers of a new job openings, 'cause Chinese don't behave same as western recruiters by replying:

"Thank you for your job application. Unfortunately, you weren't selected at this time. We'll keep your CV on record and if new opportunity arises..." or something in those lines.

 

So, the only remaining choice is no. 2.

 

Looking for the new (non-native E.T.) position in my time in China was like a daily part-time job.

 

 

Good luck!

If they're interested, expect a response within three days at most. 
The more credentials that you have, the better the chances of getting shortlisted. 

The reality of the situation, unfortunately, is that there is a LOT of competition right now -- schools are cutting programs all over the country -- so you have to stand out.
