I landed a senior exploration role this year by jumping on postings within the first hour and leading with a 3-bullet impact summary — treating “apply promptly” like fieldwork daylight. If you’re aiming senior, put a one-line leadership metric under your name so ATS and hiring managers see it fast. Small caveat: a lot of “remote” listings are really hybrid, so confirm cadence before burning time.

Building on @george28, I keep a “go-bag” apply kit: hop to the employer site, paste a 2‑sentence impact blurb, and attach a one-page project map — fast but still tailored. Small caveat: double-check roster/relocation in the fine print or you’ll “strike ore” 1,000 miles from where you can live.

“Apply promptly” is right, but add a first‑line location note (“open to NV/AZ, 14/14 rotation”) so you don’t burn time on roles you can’t take; I’ve gotten faster callbacks by naming the PDF “White_Senior_Geologist_Req4821_NV.pdf” and leading the cover with that constraint. If the portal strips filenames, paste the same line at the top of your summary.

“the portal strips filenames — paste the same line at the top of your summary.” I add a one-line header to my resume PDF: Senior Economic Geologist | CPG #10321 | open to NV/AZ, 14/14 rotation… Faster screenings because HR sees it in preview; just keep it under about 80 characters so it doesn’t get chopped.

Quick tip from my last two interviews: grab the requisition ID from the aggregator, apply on the company site, then ping the recruiter with a two‑line note tying the ID to your niche (e.g., porphyry Cu or basin modeling). A recruiter told me, “after 7 days, most senior postings are effectively closed,” so I sort by newest and set a 24‑hour apply reminder. Caveat: some portals lag, so if the link 404s I email [email protected] with the req ID instead of waiting.

Applied to three senior hydrogeo roles last month; the only callbacks came from ones I hit within 24 hours — timing matters. To catch them, I follow company‑site RSS feeds in Feedly (Earthworks is solid too: https://www.earthworks-jobs.com/) and block 15 minutes a day to fire off tailored apps. Caveat: some feeds break, so I keep a saved search on LinkedIn as backup.
