4. STAGE 2: RESUME REVIEW
There are two statuses you may see on your profile:

evaluation of your qualifications.

for further review.
What happens if my status doesn’t change to Hiring Manager Review within one
week of the posting close date? It means that your application is not successful at
this time.
