A recent survey reveals the best days to submit job applications in different states. January 13 is the peak day for Texas, while other states see their hiring peaks on different days. The survey also highlights the importance of tailoring resumes to specific job postings and the impact of company culture.
Start the week by bringing your resume up to date if a career move was your New Year’s resolution. Just 13 days into the New Year, today is the best day for Texans to dust off their job applications, a recent survey by Three-thousand hiring managers contributed to the report, which found that Texas is one of 23 states whose mid-January hiring frenzy peaks on Jan. 13.
The research finds nearly 40% of businesses are actively looking to hire; many companies complete hiring budgets and goal-setting for the year by the end of December, making January the ideal month to shoot your shot for a new role. 'January is a golden window for job seekers, but simply firing off resumes isn't enough,' Amanda Augustine, career expert at resume.io, said in a statement. 'A well-timed, well-crafted application that speaks directly to a company's needs is far more likely to get noticed.' Looking to leave the Lone Star State? Tomorrow is the best day to submit your application to jobs in New York, Arizona, California and Washington. If you need a bit more time to bring your application up to speed, hiring managers in Hawaii are checking their emails on Wednesday, Jan. 15. Friday is the best day to apply to jobs in the Dakotas. Of course, timing is everything. If you’re hoping to make the move to Colorado, Utah or Delaware, the best day to apply was last Wednesday. Go ahead and mark your 2026 calendar. Even if an ad for your dream job hasn’t been posted yet, don’t be afraid to put yourself out there. Forty-two percent of hiring managers feel an unsolicited application is proactive and “likely to grab attention.”Job hunting can certainly feel futile, but the good news is nearly 90% of hiring managers say they do actually look at applications they receive — even unsolicited ones. One in five said they review applications as soon as they hit their inbox, so leave your phone ringer on. There is the pesky 4% of managers who reported overlooking or discarding applications, but still the odds are in the job hunters’ favor. More and more hiring managers are looking for applicants who align with their company’s posted needs and goals; to put it plainly, you generated back on Jan. 2 isn’t going to cut it. Pull out your highlighter and identify those value-based buzzwords in the job posting you’re most interested in, and find a way to work those words into your own resume. Hiring managers reported that a cohesive application is significantly more important than “knowing a guy” on the inside. Only 11% said they found a referral or endorsement from a trusted connection a compelling reason to schedule an interview
