Job Hunting- Old School Style

Hi! So I send out 30 resume via email last week alone. Positions Medical Front Desk, Medical Assistant, Medical Call Center....in NJ. I then check the sites and it shows employers look at my resumes some looked at the same email twice others show position expired and still others still show position still available. Anyhow, to make a long story short I am thinking of calling these employers or mailing or faxing them a cover letter/resume I have been looking for employment for a long long time. I think this is the way to go for me. I will work anywhere while I land a promising job so that is all. I hope everyone is a little closer to a job offer.

Esther, I think you should try anything that's going to help you stand out from the pool of literally hundreds of applicants. Managers are busy and for many the recruiting and hiring tasks is overwhelming. Visibly putting yourself in from of the decision makers is the fastest way to get hired.
