As topic

I remember when I was fresh, I need to send over 100 letters, but if you make a follow up once you send the letter. You may not need to send over 100 letters, unless you are picky of your first job.

Over 1,000 letters for better job.  If you require a monthly salary below $5000, it is very easy to get the job.

More than 100

100, 正常啦

it depends on your field

02年�鶧}寄左五十封之內....
大部份係e-mail.....
06年�鶧}就寄左廿封.....
大部份都係e-mail.....

usually you need to send about 100 at least. It needs less for your second job

Around 100~~

i sent around 50 letters,
u need to do follow up

I grad in 94, I sent around 15, not included Government job, got 5 interviews, got 3 jobs offers (1 government job). Impossible nowaday..

only 5 ga wor... good luck la...

點解你地寄咁多?
我果時已經選定行業, 加埋行頭細, 所以都冇咩點寄

as much as possible until u find a job
actually no fixed amount

i send more than 100 still no
depends on luck

about 15 letters, but there no respond from the company

我都行頭細
無乜工可以搵
所以有d general post 都有搵
都send 0左幾十份
但見唔成

I sent out about 15 letters. Just got 2 interviews. Grad in 1995.

I think that is all depends on what you are looking for (plus the industry you are in).

I would look into email and make sure you have all the "key word" listed in your resume. Most of the big company use OCR to scan all incoming resume - if they are looking for some specific skill and your resume don't have it, the system will reject your resume and move on to the next one.

it depends what your doing. I did engineering so it was easy to get a job, sent about ~15 letters
