Analyzing your job hunt could prove to be more useful than you think

To advance your career and make sure your job hunt is on track there are a
number of things that you must make sure you are doing right. In fact as a
job seeker, looking to get a job should in fact be your full-time job. Today
we are going to look at 5 quick, key reasons you are not getting the
response from employers that you feel you should. If you are guilty of any
of these offenses, today is a great day to take action.

# 1. You are not making your job hunt personal.

What we mean here is that you are still sending generic resumes to "whom it
may concern." Get personal. Find the names of the HR Directors, hiring
managers or the person doing the hiring at the company. Then send them a
personal note with a custom resume catered to their company and position
that you wish to have.

# 2. You are looking where everyone else is looking.
