Applications to many other jobs by a dissatisfied employee
In human resources, rage applying refers to the application to a large number of jobs, typically online, when an employee is fed up with their current role. An individual may be prompted to begin rage applying after they have been denied a promotion or raise, are feeling unrecognized or underappreciated.[1][2] Rage applying is a response to quiet quitting and may be felt as a form of empowerment or revenge against an employer.[3][4] Rage applying can also allow an individual to understand their current market value.[5]
Rage applying stems from a negative trigger, and that running from a job rather than towards one may lead to a poor long-term fit.[2][1][6]
The term originates from a December 2022 TikTok video released by a Canadian millennial under the username @Redweez who worked in corporate social media marketing.[7][8]
