[QUOTE="Troutman3000, post: 130609, member: 2535"] I think anything you can do to stand out is the best approach. However, a lot of employers use on-line posting exclusively. It's what you do after you application/resume submission that gets you hired. Personal hand written thank you cards go a long way. Calling to check up on your application goes a really long way, and finally I always go back to the old quote, "It's not what you know, its who you know". You have to be actively networking with all your friends, former colleagues, and professional associations. Right now this is the only way to get hired. The number of applications recieved for even the most simple jobs is at an all time high as people are doing anything to become employed. Go the extra mile everytime or you really have no chance. There is always someone out there that wants the job more, remember that and you'll be ok. I am a 32 year old college graduate and this is what I see in the employment environment. [/QUOTE]
