Hi All, sorry I haven’t participated as much as I said I would but its been a rough few weeks which culminated in being told I am being made redundant in a weeks time ☹

Because life doesn’t stop and as much as I would love to crawl into bed and cry over losing a job I’ve cared about for the last 5 years, I have bills and so I’ve started applying for other jobs right away!

What I was wondering is do you think a spray or two on applications or cover letters might help? I need all the edge I can get and I was hoping it might help? what do you all think?

[pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/) are meant to be signitures read in the presence of a body,  
that is their nature.

alot of members use the mixes for self-effects, and as chemicals independant of a personal signiture, like spraying them on inanimate objects.  
this wasnt androtic’s intention creating this stuff,but its interesting in any event.

while using the product in this way may or may not be effective,  
spraying a human musk on your applications  
would be the equivalent  
of someone filling one out,  
and then rubbing it all over their body  
(or wherever the pheromone originates, like if its an armpit-'mone,taking the app and rubbing it under your pit)

i personally would find it a waste of product,  
but at the same time  
_who knows?_  
_can it really hurt?_  
may even be interesting!  
🙂

good luck  
and post about it 😉

Ooh, I absolutely love the idea!! But as Lor says, it might be a waste ☹

I would love to know what some of the other experienced members think of this idea.

I like the idea in theory, but aren’t all your phero’s scented? I keep seeing that scene from Legally Blonde where Reece Whitherspoon uses pink scented paper for Brucer’s Bill in Parlament :o Are you sure having a nice smelling CV is giving the right message? It seems more girly than professional to me…

## I remember reading about Tisha spraying her supervisors chair with IS and finding it improved her mood dramatically - a self-effect enhancing [pheromone](https://pheromonelabs.com/) might be effective, however if yours was the first resumé reviewed in a pile than you would get no net benefit (the reviewer would have the boosted mood for the entire pile of resumes)

I think IS is worth trying…

Light [Neroli](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/androtics-neroli/) only smells marginally different then rolling an orange all over yourself.

I doubt anyone would think much of the scent…

Yes, [Neroli](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/androtics-neroli/) or grapefruit might not be too bad, but moldy chocolate or cookies may be noticeable.

With a little help from my friends. When she leaves her desk my friend Mare will keep look out while I run over and spray. She only noticed once when she came back quick and we had Kenny the Janitor on stand by with his dust cloth and industrial pledge. LOL After that she never noticed.

Some times I spray it over the post masters head while he walks by my desk (snort) He just says “knock that crazy shit off” LOL Then he gets all happy from the Ishine and hangs around my desk yapping for a hour.

On job applications. I dont know… I mean like someone pointed out if they have a bunch of them how will they know its yours that makes them feel good ? I am not sure they can pin point it on inanimate objects. My superviser just has a general uplifting mood not directed at anyone really when we sspray her chair. In the interview its a good ideal though.

Yeah, I’m not sure spraying the application would help, especially if you’re dropping it off or mailing it in. The person you want to affect needs an anchor to you for the pheromones to make a difference for you personally.

Now, if you were bringing an application/resume in with you on an interview to leave after the interview is done, it might help to wear a pheromone designed to help you win them over and spray the papers you are leaving with the exact same pheromone. Then, if you made a good impression in their mind, they can later connect the feeling the pheromones that you were wearing gave them with the pheromones they are picking up from the apps they are going through. Make sense?

It can’t hurt to try!

I have found myself in a similar position as the original poster and have wondered this myself. In my own experiments it seems that I get better results when using the pheros on myself in an interview than I do when using them on an application or a resume. However, as was mentioned before, there might be positive results to using the same mix both on yourself and and on the resume you send in. I would need to expermiment more before I could comment further though.

Same phero sig on both papers and you for interview is a great idea - it would totally reinforce their memory of you when they review the resumé post interview.

Memory is actually a HUGE problem in interviews - the last person to be interviewed gets the job WAYYYY more often than the first person interviewed. Now sometimes this is because they stop doing interviews after having found the person they are going to hire… but it still happens when they have a large group of same-day scheduled interviews. Interestingly, oftentimes the FIRST person interviewed is the resumé they preferred most.

My reasoning for this is that the last person is the person for whom they have the strongest memory associations - as long as the interview was positive it becomes difficult to remember everybody else. Using your phero sig to help their memory along could help you quite a bit…

There are some discussions of this “over there”, some from as far back as 2002/2003 (hint: archives).🙄

Generally found to be somewhat effective.🙂

Then again… Androtics sprays our orders with [Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/) and remember how happy we all get when we open those packages? I think a spritz of IS on your application would do wonders to imprint happy feelings with your application. It would be an interesting experiment at any rate and I’d love to see how it goes.

LOL that’s awesome, MAN - if I’d discovered this with my last boss, it might have saved me (and all my co-workers) some serious grief lol she was a bit, bi-polar. Ok, who we kidding, that woman would go from Mother Teresa to Succubus from the 9th circle of Hell in .06 seconds flat. If you didn’t blink, sometimes you could physically see the “snap” change in personality. She would get so angry, suddenly over seeminly nothing that she would rupture a blood vessel in her eye.

We often joked and I mean it really was a joke, about slipping a Xanex in her coffee every morning LOL

If I’d known about I/S then - I totally would have tried it LOL But like I said, she ruptured eye blood vessels and devoured baby souls LOL - I’m not sure even a gallon of I/S would work. 🙂

Hey SilverStar, I’m sorry to hear you have to look for another job, but if they can let you go that easily after 5 years, I’m glad you have the opportunity to look for a company that will look for reasons to keep you, ratehr than for ways to replace you.

Lots of interesting information here, but I’ve got to wonder about diffusion and the effective hang time, when it comes to leaving a resume with an employer after an interview or dropping it in the mail.

I think a follow up phone call would be far more effective and implant a more favorable impression than spraying pheros on a peice of paper and hoping that it’s picked up and reviewed before the molecules have a chance to break down into something less than favorable smelling.

No telling what kind of bacteria is on the other resumes or letters being mailed, and what they might break down to. Probably wouldn’t be a good thing if all that BetaNol you sprayed on the resume turned to AndrosteNone in the hiring managers inbox.
