Any Tools for Auto-Applying to Jobs?


For me, literally a couple hours every single day are wasted sending out applications in the current tech market – it feels like an incredibly bad use of time that could be spent actually developing a skill or building something interesting.

Is there a more resourceful way to go about this that I don't know about?

My suggestion is don't do that. Consider what your probably of success is. The more people do that the less successful you will become.

I suggest leaving the house and going to meet people. Go to job fairs, seminars, and trade fares. Find big contracting firms and make sure they get your resume, like TekSystems. Use your personal network.

Also, you might want to look outside of tech. There some amazing and less boring jobs out there. I suspect if you are trying to fire hose blast your resume to the world you aren't taking the time to find jobs you love. Do you want to be miserable?
