[QUOTE="DDD, post: 373666, member: 35"] Although I agree with the temp agency idea I think it might be wise to physically go to apply in person at any place that "might" be hiring. I know it would be alot of running around but it would put a face to the application. It also would be a bit tricky dressing appropriately for the job level. Perhaps you could designate different days for going to restaurants (for example) or more white collar companies. You also would be able to adapt the information on the application according to the possible position. At each stop that bears no fruit, ask if they know of anyone who is hiring now. We live in a small community and one business owner told me that in one week he received over 700 emails. Being inundated with emails and/or snail mail would certainly depersonalize the senders information I would think. I'm sure it is frustrating. Everyone is rooting for you. DDD [/QUOTE]
