Applying within an hour worked for me — ‘jobs expire’ fast, @OP. Add a 20-sec Loom greeting; quiet background.

I got faster callbacks when I put my certs (ACA, FEMA ICS‑100/700) and my current rabies titer at the very top of the resume and named the file ‘Paul Thompson_Animal Control.pdf’ so it stands out in the queue. Doesn’t replace a quick note, but if you still need ICS, the free course is here: FEMA - Emergency Management Institute (EMI) Course | IS-100.C: Introduction to the Incident Command System, ICS 100, @OP.

Piggybacking on @p_thompson3: I started linking a redacted bite/cruelty report (PDF) in my application so hiring managers can see my write-ups and photo captions; for remote triage gigs this got me quicker screens, but scrub every identifier.

I started putting my time zone and exact on‑call window right under my name — “PT | 06:00–14:00, can cover Sun nights” — and recruiters for remote triage pinged me same day; @ajenkins99 small caveat: a few posts still want you close enough for impounds or court.
