Applying for jobs at two levels at the same time

Is it less advisable to apply for two jobs at different levels in the same office

eg Project Management Officer & Project Management Assistant

I'm probably qualified for the higher but have little experience so might be better suited to the lower one......

Apply for both!

Go for both. Happens all the time. Good luck.

Go for both!
Adjust the applications appropriately though.
Good luck. :)

Yay! Do the one you really want last. The interview for the first one might give you some pointers.
Good luck!

I wouldn't mind either tbh

I have booked the first one avail for each job (so it turns out it's the other way round)

I have found the job descriptions & I have 10 days to prep!

Fingers crossed! Let us know how you get on

They completely disregarded me for the lower job & I didn;t get the higher job but only because the candidates they offered the jobs to had more specific technical skills - they would like me to apply again if they advertise & suggested I should be looking at the higher grade for my next application

Not quite what you were hoping for, but sounds like not too bad so well done!

katymac · 09/10/2017 20:44

I wasn't even sure i was good enough for the lower job; so when they invited me into the office for feedback I jumped at it!
