What is an Inquiry?

An inquiry is your way of expressing interest in a position. It's not a formal application — think of it as raising your hand to say "I'm interested, let's talk."

When you inquire, the employer receives your message along with your profile information, and a conversation thread is created so you can communicate directly.

How to Send an Inquiry

  1. Find a job you're interested in and click to view the details

  2. Click the "Inquire" button on the job detail panel

  3. Write a brief message introducing yourself and expressing your interest

  4. Optionally attach your resume if you haven't already uploaded one to your profile

  5. Click "Send" — that's it!

What Happens Next?

After you send an inquiry:

  • The employer receives an email notification about your inquiry

  • A conversation thread is created in your Messages

  • The employer can view your profile and respond directly through Ethesia

  • You'll receive a notification when they reply

Most employers respond within a few days. You can check the status of your inquiries anytime from your dashboard.

Can I Inquire to Multiple Jobs?

Absolutely! You can inquire to as many jobs as you'd like.
