How to Actually Get Hired
Who reads applications, which channel gets a reply, and what they screen for.
Why applying the normal way doesn't work
At <50 people, Fuse has no recruiting team. Your application lands with a founder who is also running sales, product and payroll. The obstacle isn't a queue or an ATS, it's being seen at all. Cold outreach outperforms the form here, consistently.
Who to contact at Fuse
No verified contact route for Fuse yet. Based on size (<50) and sector (Healthcare), a founder or department head is likely the decision-maker, but treat this as a model.
What Fuse screens for
For a Healthcare company, expect them to prioritize relevant experience and ability to operate autonomously over credentials.
A tailored CV beats a generic one. Use Fuse's job description language to clear filters.
Mistakes that kill applications
A recycled CV gets rejected fast at Fuse (<50 people). They notice.
Skip 'I'm looking for...' — start with is growing fast after their null round and your specific angle on solving it.
Applying and waiting = silence. Follow up at day five — it roughly doubles your odds of a reply.
