		<description>Thanks for the feedback, Regina. It&#039;s true, these are meant to be basic reminders that all serious job seekers should (hopefully) know by now. But &lt;em&gt;knowing&lt;/em&gt; and actually &lt;em&gt;doing&lt;/em&gt; are two different things, and this post is meant to be a call to action. 

Of course we all &lt;em&gt;know&lt;/em&gt; not to apply to jobs we&#039;re not qualified for or to tailor each application to the specific job, but we don&#039;t do it every single time. How many times do we omit one or more of the things on the list, because we&#039;re tired or it&#039;s inconvenient, or we feel it won&#039;t make a difference just this once. When it comes to applying to dozens of jobs each week, it&#039;s easy to let some of these things slide...but if you&#039;re truly aiming to be efficient in your job search, you CANNOT afford to let any of these things slide.

So job seekers - do these ten things for EVERY SINGLE JOB you apply for.

		<description>Excellent plan, but most job seekers, I hope, already know these.  These are basics.  

People really don&#039;t write &quot;thank you&quot; notes after interviews or get their resumes reviewed or rewritten, if need be?  

Of course, I tailor my cover letters to each job as it&#039;s obvious when you don&#039;t.  

I was hoping for more substantial advice because, at this point in the game, most job seekers know these.</description>
