Did you know that it could take completing 100 or more applications to get one job offer? If it takes 20 minutes to complete an application (a conservative estimate), that means you may have spent more than 30 hours just on job applications…for one job, so if you had more than one job in your life, you could multiply that number by the number of jobs you’ve had to get an idea how much time you have spent completing job applications! Wait, there’s more. Throughout life, you will spend time on applications for many other organizations and services:
- Education for yourself and your dependents
- Daycare for your dependents
- Property/real estate
- Associations
- Libraries
- loans
- mortgages
- government services such as IRS and BMV
- volunteering
- Leasing or buying a vehicle
- Renting a vehicle
- Renting a home or an apartment
- Legal documents
- Hospitals
- Assisted living and nursing homes
- religious organizations
- Retirement plans
- Financial advising
- Sports teams
- Scholarships
- Grants
- Certifications
- Continuing education
- Pet care
- Insurance
- Social services
If you have completed half of these applications, you have spent at least 40 more hours on applications. Have you ever needed one little detail you could not find until later? An old address? A supervisor’s phone number? Your GPA from high school? Your 1A profile will hold all these details and more…in one safe and secure place so you can stop wasting time on applications.
